Saladin and Richard the Lionheart - Hardcover

Sir Walter Scott, who is considered the father of the "historical novel" genre in world literature, wrote the book "The Third Crusade", which is considered the most interesting of the Crusades. In his novel, which centers on the Ottoman Empire, he describes the tough struggle between Saladin and his European enemies. Contrary to the entrenched Eurocentric prejudices about Muslims, Walter Scott portrays Saladin and Muslims realistically with their superior virtues and behaviors. The focus of the novel is III. It includes the adventure of Sir Kenneth, who came to Palestine from his homeland Scotland to participate in the Crusade. While Walter Scott masterfully depicts the obsolete mentality and blunted perceptions of Medieval Europe in the novel, he shows how both Europeans and Muslims evaluated their own situation within the surprising fiction of intertwined events.
