Abstract

The article in the journal "German History" by Werner Paravicini explores the decline of the Teutonic Order's military expeditions in Russia and Lithuania in the fifteenth century. It discusses how the European nobility shifted their focus to other areas, leaving the Order politically isolated and vulnerable. The text highlights the challenges faced by the Order in recruiting volunteers and justifying their campaigns after their enemies converted to Christianity. Paravicini's study sheds light on the changing dynamics of crusading energy in Europe during this period. [Extracted from the article]
