Abstracts

EN

This study compares the approach to Islam and the Turks of two close contemporaries, writers at the Burgundian court, writing around 1455. While the official chronicler Georges Chastelain adopted a venemously anti-Muslim stance and called for a crusade against the Turks, Bertrandon de la Broquière portrayed the Turks in efforts to understand their religion and different way of life.
