The genesis of this volume lies in the online conference held by Nottingham Trent University in 2022. This was the eighth in the series of military orders conferences organised since 1992. The conference fostered rich exchange and debate, as reflected in the twenty-three chapters in this book.The Military Orders Volume VIII – organised around five thematic axes: interactions, administration, religion, perceptions, and approaches – offers a broad coverage in terms of geographical variety, chronological spread, and thematic focus, as well as a wide variety of approaches and methodologies. As such, this book shows the dynamism of the study of the military orders – a subject of continued scholarly focus and widespread popular interest – and holds the promise for many more exciting initiatives in the future.This book will appeal to students and scholars alike interested in the military religious orders and the crusades, as well as all those interested more generally in the medieval and early modern world.
