Summary "La sesta crociata" by Sire de Jean Joinville is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work recounts the significant events surrounding the Sixth Crusade, particularly focusing on King Louis IX of France, often referred to as Saint Louis, and his endeavors during this period. It serves both as a narration of historical events and an exploration of the motivations and challenges faced by the Crusaders. At the start of this historical account, the author introduces the context and purpose of the narrative, highlighting the importance of translating historical texts from the old French language into a more accessible Italian vernacular. The text reflects on past linguistic studies and intends to illuminate the connections between the old French and modern Italian languages, suggesting that understanding these connections might clarify historical and etymological questions. There is also an emphasis on the life of King Louis IX and his campaigns, setting the stage for a detailed recounting of the crusade's events that will follow in the narrative.
