If you look at the medieval narrative fantasy novels that are circulating on the market these days, you can see how the illusion of the Middle Ages worked for our people... But given the harm of the Galhae people here, most of them know the truth. Accordingly, I'm working hard to extract and upload some feed. It's the easiest to compare the uncivilizedness of the Middle Ages. With Arab eyes. ------- This is a passage from the records left by Usa Maiven Munkid, a Syrian historian and chronologist in the 12th century during the Second Crusade. Usameven Moonkid is said to be a Crusader (in the original text, it is called Frankish). Because Arabs don't use the word crusade. Because for them, the Crusades were just invaders.) was born in 1095 two years before entering Syria and died in 1188, a year after the Muslims recaptured Jerusalem. He occupied an important position among the Arabs who testified to the Crusades and made a reputation as a writer and diplomat politician. His autobiography was published in 1893 by H. derenbug and in 1983 andremiquel supplemented annotations and illustrations in a French version titled Lessons of Life. The above is an annotation from the autobiography. It was also cited in The Crusades from the Eye of the Arabs published in Korea a few years ago (written by French Arab historian Amin Malouf, Kim Mi-sun's Yeokju). From now on, let's write down the exact content as it is in the original text. ------- One day, a Frankish ruler of Munitra in the mountainous Lebanese sent a letter to Emir Sultan, my uncle, asking him to send a doctor to take care of some of the critical patients. The uncle selected a doctor named Tabit from among Christians. But he came back in a few days. We rushed to ask him, wondering how he had treated patients so quickly. Tabbit's answer was like this. "They brought me a knight with a festering leg and a woman who suffered from tuberculosis. I put a plaster on the driver. It was to gradually heal as the abscess opened. The woman was prescribed a diet that lowered her fever. But the Frankian doctor came and said. "This guy doesn't know how to fix patients!" Then he asked the driver. "Which one would you choose?" Will you choose the way to survive with only one leg or die with both legs?" The patient replied that he wanted to live on one leg. Then the doctor ordered it. "Then tell a sturdy knight to bring a well-grounded axe." Soon, the knight came with the axe. The Frankian doctor raised his leg on a wooden workbench and told the new driver. "Hit it cleanly and well!" He hit his leg in front of my eyes. But when the leg was not completely amputated, he hit it again. The bone marrow of the leg splashed in all directions, and eventually the patient died immediately. This time, a Frankian doctor who examined a woman with lung disease said this. "The devil sits in her head and falls in love with her!" First, cut this hair!" People cut the woman's hair. And the woman began to eat garlic and mustard to fight the devil, which eventually resulted in further weakening of symptoms. "Because the devil didn't come out of my head," their doctor shouted loudly. He picked up a razor, drew a cross over the woman's head, made her skull reveal, and rubbed it recklessly over it with salt. Eventually, the woman died on the spot. So I asked. "You don't need me anymore, do you?"" They answered yes. That's why I came back after learning a lot of things I didn't know about Frankish doctors. p.s: In the 12th century, Western European medieval people were far behind Arabs in science, technology, and everything... In particular, the medical field had a wide gap. Already in Arab, professional surgeons and physicians have teamed up to treat patients since the end of the 9th century. The first general hospital opened in Damascus in the 12th century, and they treated patients using diet and surgery. This hospital continues until now. I quote a few more other things. This is an article that pointed out the uncivilization of the Western European medieval trial. As expected, it is the record of Usa Even Moonkid. ----------- In Nablus, I came to witness a strange sight. The two men quarreled over one problem. The reason was like this. Muslim mobs attacked a nearby village and a farmer was accused of acting as their guide. He immediately fled and returned when he heard that King Fulk had imprisoned his family. "Take care of me fairly. Allow me to compete with the one who accused me," the farmer asked the king. Then the king said to the lord who was given the village as a beacon. "Bring someone to fight with." Young-ju pointed out a blacksmith who was working in the village and told him. "You should participate in the duel." Yeongju did not want one of the village farmers to die in a duel. This is because that could interfere with farming. From what I can tell, the blacksmith was a healthy young man. But whenever I sat or moved, I always asked for something to drink. Meanwhile, the person accused of being a sinner was an old man with courage, and he expressed his intention to confront him by bumping his fingers. Jakjak, the lord of Nablus, came forward and gave each person a spear and shield, and then made the spectators surround them. The fight began. The old man pushed the blacksmith. He stepped back toward the crowd and returned to the middle of the duel. Prices went back and forth several times, and how intense it was, the blood of the duel seemed to go straight. Despite the self-help encouragement to tie a knot as soon as possible, the fight did not know it would end. "Come on, hurry!" Zak shouted to them. Finally, when the old man ran out of energy, the blacksmith took advantage of his experience handling the hammer and hit him and knocked him down. The window fell out of the old man's hand. The blacksmith rushed to the old man and tried to poke his finger into his eyes, but it was not easy to aim because he was covered with blood. So the blacksmith stood up and decisively inserted a spear. People immediately hung ropes around the neck of the body and dragged him to the gallows. Look, this is called a trial by the Franks! --------- Well, in the Arab world, much more modern trials were conducted than in medieval Western Europe at that time. We had to follow the exact procedures of the arguments, arguments, and testimonies set out in the Quran. Therefore, it was natural that the author of the above article explicitly expressed feelings close to hatred. As a last service, I'll tell you about the anecdote of the French king who marked the last part of the Crusades... King Louis IX of France was caught during a crusade in Palestine... The king was released by paying a ransom of 1 million dinars (about 1.2 billion won in money these days). The king had to listen to a sermon from Islamic negotiators before he was released. "You thought of a good, wise, and smart person like you coming into the land where countless Muslims live by boat? According to our law, a person who crosses the sea like him cannot testify in court!" Then the king asked. "Why are you saying that?" "Because," their answer was like this. "Because he determines that his mental state is not normal." ----------------------------- Well, at this point, I think we can see how deeply the medieval fantasy was rooted in us. Therefore, I can't help but laugh at the medieval fantasy where all kinds of pre-modern concepts are circulating. (This is my personal opinion, so I hope there is no misunderstanding.)
