LOL .. Back in 2004, I wrote a paper for my History 317 (High Middle Ages) which I actually entitled “The First Crusade as a mission of stealing Candelabras from your murdered victims.” ..
This is an actual quote from my paper …
“There is however a theme that is uniform throughout the documents of the First Crusade, and that is that the First Crusade was a highly chaotic event which was used as an excuse by the Crusaders to cleanse the world of people that were not Christian and to fill their pockets with lots and lots of stolen candelabras.”
I think I may have been bored in this class and was doing my best to amuse myself …
