The reign of King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem (1174-85) has traditionally been seen as a period of decline when, because of the king's illness, power came to be held by those who made the wrong policy decisions.

The reign of King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem (1174-85) has traditionally been seen as a period of decline when, because of the king's illness, power came to be held by those who made the wrong policy decisions. Notably, they ignored the advice of Raymond of Tripoli and attacked Saladin. This book challenges that view, arguing that peace with Saladin was not a viable option; and that the young king, despite suffering from lepromatous leprosy, presided over a society that was (contrary to what is often said) vigorous and self-confident.

原文摘录
· · · · · ·
Baldwin was by training and Temperament a Knight, whose primary vocation was to lead his army in battle and to fight in Defence of Holy Places. The most distinctive character traits that he displayed, according to the reports of eye-witnesses, were knightly ones: great physical courage and a highly developed sense of honor...
What most commands our admiration is Baldwin’s strength of will, which enabled him to discharge his royal duties despite his illness. His contemporaries admire him for that too, but they admired him even more because, despite his disabilities, he was a successful ruler...
...as long as he lived he was victorious. (查看原文)
很琐碎絮叨，而且叙事绝对有问题（新人物出场先说一遍早年经历，把本来的时间线都打乱了），但确实很细致
其实有很多能救Jerusalem的机会，包括但不限于:给Sibyl找个神罗/英/法贵族丈夫，和东征贵族/拜占庭联合，拉丁国家再组织一趟十字军东征……可惜最后都没成，总是有各种意外或有人搅和（Reynald和Raymond😅）
可怜的Baldwin IV
七八年前没读下去理由也很显然，你不能指望一个十二三岁的孩子靠着满心的崇拜来支撑自己啃下这样典型的学术书；倒是这个暑假本着刷文献的心态读完了。另也草草读了biblio提到的一些相关文献，突然觉得中世纪这个方向也不错的。当然，最重要的是，终于可以写Raymond III of Tripoli和鲍小四的同人啦！
The Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem was founded in 1099 when the first Crusaders took (and sacked) the city of Jerusalem. Godfry of Bouillion was its first ‘king’ and his brother Baldwin I after him. I’ve seen a comment online about the nine crusades: “It’s...

作为十字军历史一个缩影式补充。围绕着彼时王国现状及其继任问题展开，说的最多的还是他超越常人的意志力，他最大限度地同病体对抗，而谈论一位君王最有可能的就是忽略其年龄带来的人生经验如何支撑他的一生。

结束至Battle of Hattin，没有讲述Jerusalem的陷落，主要着墨于复杂的noble lineage上，内容中肯但是比较缺乏色彩，作者是好的学者但不是很好的叙述者。
