«The Trial of the Templars» is the historical essay by Malcolm Barber, published by Cambridge University Press in paperback, with 312 pages in English.
In 1307, Philip IV of France arrested the Templars and accused them of heresies: denying Christ, homosexuality, and idol worship. Confessions obtained under torture fueled royal and papal proceedings; in 1310 several brothers attempted to defend the order. The work reconstructs the trial up to the execution of Jacques de Molay in 1314.
Work by medievalist Malcolm Barber, originally published in 1978; this 1993 edition belongs to the Canto collection.
It will interest readers of medieval history and those who wish to learn about the trial against the Knights Templar.
