MediaDB / «The Sword and the Grail" Andrew Sinclair: download fb2, read online
About the book: 2013 / The quest for the Holy Grail - this is exactly what, beautifully and archaically, is called the unique phenomenon of the medieval spiritual culture of Europe, which gave rise to masterpieces of chivalric novels and poems about centuries-old search for a miraculous radiant cup, into which, according to legend, angels collected the blood that flowed from the wounds of Christ during the agony of the cross on Golgotha. In some legends, the Grail is a magic stone that fell from the sky... The Knights of the Grail are also called templars in old texts. The history of this Catholic order, founded during the Crusades and destroyed at the beginning of the 14th century, is covered in legends. And all the threads of the most fantastic legends are woven together in this book! It will talk about the history of the order, which has already become almost a myth, and about Masonic secrets, and about forgotten overseas voyages - they, by the way, look very plausible in the light of the documents cited.
