Medieval History
This will be a short post.
This Summer, I have the privilege of being a Visiting Professor with the Religion und Politik Exzellenzcluster at the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster. I'll be giving a couple of talks on my research and also leading a doctoral seminar. The last of these is what I need help with. The topic of this seminar is (tentatively) titled "The Language of Holy War in Contemporary American Discourse." As you, dear reader, may well know, this is a subject I've tackled here on a number of occasions.
Anyway, I need to give the students a reading list for said seminar. I have a preliminary bibliography -- some good stuff there -- but I want to be sure there's not some interesting stuff that I'm just not missing. The internet's a big place after all and, despite my best efforts to not do any teaching, service, or any other research (just joking, dear administrator), I can't read everything.
So, can you all think of anything that I might want to include? Please use the comments below to add your thoughts and spread the word. Any and all suggestions are MOST welcome...
