Warriors of the Cloisters tells how key cultural innovations from Central Asia revolutionized medieval Europe and gave rise to the culture of science in the West Medieval scholars rarely performed scientific experiments but instead contested issues in natural science philosophy and theology using the recursive argument method This highly distinctive and unusual method of disputation was a core feature of medieval science the predecessor of modern science We know that the foundations of science were imported to Western Europe from the Islamic world but until now the origins of such key elements of Islamic culture have been a mystery In this provocative book Christopher I Beckwith traces how the recursive argument method was first developed by Buddhist scholars and was spread by them throughout ancient Central Asia He shows how the method was adopted by Islamic Central Asian natural philosophersmost importantly by Avicenna one of the most brilliant of all medieval thinkersand transmitted to the West when Avicennas works were translated into Latin in Spain in the twelfth century by the Jewish philosopher Ibn Daud and others During the same period the institution of the college was also borrowed from the Islamic world The college was where most of the disputations were held and became the most important component of medieval Europes newly formed universities As Beckwith demonstrates the Islamic college also originated in Buddhist Central Asia Using indepth analysis of ancient Buddhist Classical Arabic and Medieval Latin writings Warriors of the Cloisters transforms our understanding of the origins of medieval scientific culture

Christianity has had a problematic relationship with warfare throughout its history with the middle ages being no exception While warfare came to be accepted as a necessary activity for laymen clerics were largely excluded from military activity Those who participated in war risked falling foul of a number of accepted canons of the church as well as the opinions of their peers However many continued to involve themselves in war including active participation on battlefields This book focusing on a number of individual English clerics between 1000 and 1250 seeks to untangle the cultural debate surrounding this military behavior It sets its examination into a broader context including the clerical reform movement of the eleventh and twelfth centuries the development of a more comprehensive canon law and the popularization of chivalric ideology Rather than portraying these clerics as anachronistic outliers or mere criminals this study looks at how contemporaries understood their behaviour arguing that there was a wide range of views which often included praise for clerics who fought in licit causes The picture which emerges is that clerical violence despite its prescriptive condemnation was often judged by how much it advanced the interests of the observer Craig M Nakashian is Associate Professor of History at Texas AampM UniversityTexarkana
