The Ruling Of Women In The Kingdom Of The Lord

This historical novel delves into a fascinating political phenomenon: the involvement of Latin women in politics during Medieval History, specifically in the Early Crusading Period. The third king of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, King Baldwin II, sought to extend his authority over the Crusader states, including Edessa, Tripoli, and Antioch. To achieve this, he married his daughter Alice to Prince Bohemond II of Antioch, thereby forcing Bohemond to recognize his dominance. Additionally, Baldwin married his elder daughter, Melisande, to an old and weak man named Fulk, possibly to allow Melisande an opportunity to rule the Kingdom.

Baldwin II crowned Melisande alongside her husband Fulk and their son Baldwin III, making them joint rulers of the Kingdom. After her father’s death, Queen Melisande was determined to rule the Kingdom with full authority. This led to conflicts with her husband, King Fulk, as he attempted to diminish her power. Upon King Fulk’s death, when her son Baldwin III was only thirteen years old, Melisande tried to govern without consulting him, even as he approached adulthood.

After a prolonged struggle, Baldwin III eventually succeeded in stripping his mother of her authority in 1161. This year marked the end of female rule in the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

Verses From The Time Of Al-Khalil

Since early childhood, I have been chanting verses from the hearts and emotions of poets from bygone eras.Their poetry collections have inspired my soul with a magical, shadowy fragrance that blossoms with time, like the blooms of flowers in the early, dewy morning and settles deep within the memory of the soul and conscience.My poetry collection includes poems that express most of the emotions experienced by the human soul, including love and passion, separation and reunion, joy and sorrow, pain and satire, and other purely human emotions. Poetry, as I see it, is a spiritual translation of the various experiences and hues of life.I titled it Verses from the Time of Al-Khalil to honor the great scholar Al-Khalil ibn Ahmad Al-Farahidi. I hope to bring back to the heart – even if only a little – the breezes of early extraordinary magical melodies, and I hope I can lift the veil on a great legacy that soothes the passions of hearts and instills within them the tenderness necessary for humanity to manifest in its most beautiful form.As for my poems and their verses, I wrote their words in a clear and somewhat simplified Arabic language, enabling them to connect directly with the readers’ hearts and delicate golden and silver fingertips and touch them with the whispers of the sun and moon.
