The Knights Templar
Topic: peter konieczny, who were the knights templar? the rise and fall of a military order
We have left our lands and our loved ones, and we have come here to raise up and exalt the law of God. So we rest here eating, drinking, and spending, without doing any work. Nor do we perform any acts of arms, even though this country needs it. We obey a priest and therefore we do not perform any acts of arms. Let us follow the advice and with the permission of our prior let us make one of us our
Master, who can guide us in battle when necessary.

Topic: danièle cybulskie, the afterlife of the templars: from fighting injustice to ruling the world
Heroes. Villains. Saviors. Destroyers. It is hard to think of another organization that has such a widespread reputation for being good and evil in almost equal measure. In a strange twist of fate, the defamation and destruction of the Templars by Philip the Fair in the 14th century has given them an afterlife in the popular imagination that has reached every corner of the world, far exceeding the reach of the medieval order. Given the relative brevity of their existence and the fact that they ultimately failed in their mission, what is it about the Templars that has kept us fascinated for centuries?
