EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the intensity and passion of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153) as he delivers a rousing sermon during the Second Crusade at the abbey of Vezelay, France, in 1146. Bernard, a renowned theologian and spiritual leader, played a pivotal role in inspiring the Christian world to join the crusade against the Muslim forces threatening the Holy Land. In the photograph, Bernard stands before an enormous crucifix, his hands outstretched and his eyes fixed on the crowd. The crucifix, with its intricately carved details, serves as a powerful visual reminder of the sacrifice and suffering that awaited the crusaders. The crowd, a sea of people dressed in various shades of brown and gray, listens intently, their faces a mix of determination, devotion, and trepidation. The backdrop of the abbey, with its Romanesque arches and intricate stonework, adds to the historical significance of the scene. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a pivotal moment in the history of the Crusades and the Christian faith. The Second Crusade, launched in response to the capture of the city of Edessa by the Seljuk Turks, was a turning point in the Crusades, marking the first time that a European army marched eastward to defend the Holy Land. Bernard's impassioned preaching played a crucial role in rallying support for the crusade, inspiring thousands to join the march to the east. This photograph is a testament to the power of faith and the enduring impact of religious leaders on history. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who answered the call to defend their faith and protect the Holy Land, and the role that religious fervor and leadership continue to play in shaping the course of history.
