| 总结: | During the First Crusade warriors and retainers participated with clergy in a series of liturgically prescribed penitential processions to demonstrate worthiness to God and achieve military victory. This embodied participation in liturgical supplication, usually reserved for clergy, bound the crusaders together in a sacred community predicated on fighting God's war against God's enemies, who were, in this liturgical framework, defined as non-Christians. Further, participation in these rituals - routine in the West - necessarily took on new meaning when enacted in the Holy Land, thus endowing participation in the procession, and in the crusade, with greater devotional meaning. These ritualized processions thus materialized the ideological premises of crusade as a form of devotion melding penance and sacred violence. |
