Abstract

The society founded by the Franks in the Holy Land after the European conquest of Jerusalem has been the subject of study for many historians who, since the beginnings of the 20th century, tried to elucidate the ways knowledge circulated between the Mediterranean East and the European continent. The study of the medical practice developed in the Latin society of the Kingdom of Jerusalem belongs to the set of investigations on this particular chapter of the history of knowledge in the Medieval Mediterranean World. The study and reflection on its historiographical evolution will allow us to outline, in general terms, the main lines of analysis and ways of approaching this specific field, as well as the great changes and novel perspectives on the issue in order to understand this aspect of the history of the crusades. Likewise, it will be possible to identify possible difficulties in the works addressed, as well as to point out perspectives for future proposals.
