Abstract
Immediately following the fall of Acre in 1291, the master of the Hospitallers, Jean de Villers, wrote a letter to his superior, Guillaume de Villeret, describing the fierce battle that ended Western control of the city. This unique document, originally written in French, survives in a single manuscript, Bibliothèque nationale de France fr. 24430, where it has been attached to a French translation of the Excidium Aconis. The text of the Destruction, as included in fr. 24430, is the sole surviving copy of a translation based on the Latin version found in two 14th-century manuscripts: Brussels, Bibliothèque royale Albert Ier, nr. II-2212; and Madrid, Escorial, Q.II.21. Jean de Villers’s letter and the Destruction are here edited in their entirety for the first time. A close examination of the base MS, an anthology produced in Tournai ca. 1300, shows that the inclusion of these Crusade-oriented texts was of a political nature, establishing a flattering analogy between events in the Holy Land and the early history of Christian evangelisation in the Tournaisis.

This unique document, originally written in French, survives in a single manuscript, Bibliothèque nationale de France fr. 24430, where it has been attached to a French translation of the Excidium Aconis. The text of the Destruction, as included in fr. 24430, is the sole surviving copy of a translation based on the Latin version found in two 14th-century manuscripts: Brussels, Bibliothèque royale Albert Ier, nr. II-2212; and Madrid, Escorial, Q.II.21. Jean de Villers’s letter and the Destruction are here edited in their entirety for the first time. A close examination of the base MS, an anthology produced in Tournai ca. 1300, shows that the inclusion of these Crusade-oriented texts was of a political nature, establishing a flattering analogy between events in the Holy Land and the early history of Christian evangelisation in the Tournaisis.</abstract><relatedItem type="host"><titleInfo><title>Viator</title></titleInfo><genre type="journal" authority="ISTEX" authorityURI="https://publication-type.data.istex.fr" valueURI="https://publication-type.data.istex.fr/ark:/67375/JMC-0GLKJH51-B">journal</genre><identifier type="ISSN">0083-5897</identifier><identifier type="PublisherID">viator</identifier><part><date>2011</date><detail type="volume"><caption>vol.</caption><number>42</number></detail><detail type="issue"><caption>no.</caption><number>1</number></detail><extent unit="pages"><start>139</start><end>178</end></extent></part></relatedItem><identifier type="istex">A5BF93FB3976217F3ABB59B6B93EA9F514C1AB02</identifier><identifier type="ark">ark:/67375/NDQ-M8LK6NG6-9</identifier><identifier type="DOI">10.1484/J.VIATOR.1.102007</identifier><identifier type="href">J.VIATOR.1.102007.pdf</identifier><recordInfo><recordContentSource authority="ISTEX" authorityURI="https://loaded-corpus.data.istex.fr" valueURI="https://loaded-corpus.data.istex.fr/ark:/67375/XBH-G49QVQ7L-X">Brepols</recordContentSource><recordOrigin>Brepols Publishers</recordOrigin></recordInfo></mods><json:item><extension>json</extension><original>false</original><mimetype>application/json</mimetype><uri>https://api.istex.fr/ark:/67375/NDQ-M8LK6NG6-9/record.json</uri></json:item></metadata><serie></serie></istex></record>Pour manipuler ce document sous Unix (Dilib)
