Supernatural Aid in Medieval Warfare
DESCRIPTION
The issue of supernatural aid in medieval warfare came into its own with the now classic study Der Heilige als Schlachtenhelfer by František Graus. Since then, much has been said on the subject. However, the studies to date have mostly been restrictive and produced in isolation within local scholarships and in native languages. The goal of the proposed set of four volumes is to collect studies that together will provide the most comprehensive and all-encompassing picture of the issue treated both as a phenomenon embedded in religious and social culture but also as a changing motif in historical and hagiographical writing.

Clients say

I am most pleased to recommend Trivent publishing to anyone who is at the “publish a book” stage of life. The team is professional, outstanding, supportive, they are intelligent editors who will direct, not coddle, an author on his/her journey to publication.

I have been working with the Philosophical Journal of Conflict and Violence since its debut in 2017. It has been a pleasant experience to see how the papers take shape in the process from submission to peer review to publication. The editor-in-chief together with the Trivent team do a tremendous job and are always seeking quality above all!

I’ve participated in two conferences organized by Trivent in the last few years and both were a nice experience – went smoothly and had decent talks in good spirit. When it came to managing manuscripts, I was surprised by the professionalism by which they helped my text get published. I definitely enjoyed working with them!
