About this listen
SEASON 8: The First Crusade
EPISODE 201: The Secret Drama of Treachery
Nicaea.
May – June, 1097.
Anna Komnene writes about “the secret drama of treachery,” a hint as to how this formidable Seljuk capital of the new Sultanate of Rum would return to Roman hands. Would it fall by Western efforts…or by some other way? It’s a fascinating story about the opening salvos of the First Crusade, showcasing Western cooperation, Seljuk ferocity, and Byzantine statecraft.
