With co-author Laura K. Morreale, in this book Lester uses five parchment rolls that inventoried the possessions of Eudes of Nevers, son of the duke of Burgundy, at his death in Acre in 1266 to open out a panorama of Christian crusader life.The contents of the rolls, or rouleaux, span from the pay rendered to knights and servants to the numerous possessions of a crusading nobleman. The inventory provides insight into the medieval Outremer even as it provokes questions about trade, diplomacy, remembrance, and the methodological challenges of evoking material objects in texts.Virginia Jewiss, Director of Public Engagement at the Alexander Grass Humanities Institute, will join Anne Lester in conversation.Whether it's your first time at the series or you've been attending for years, we hope you'll join us to usher this exciting new book into the world!!Anne E. Lester is John W. Baldwin and Jenny Jochens Associate Professor of Medieval History at Johns Hopkins University. She is the author of Creating Cistercian Nuns.Virginia Jewiss is the Director of Public Engagement at the Alexander Grass Humanities Institute and a Teaching Professor in the Humanities.
