This volume is the sequel to Coureas's earlier The Latin Church in Cyprus, 1195–1312 (Aldershot 1997), which covered the history of that Church from its establishment in 1195, following the conquest of the island by Richard i in 1191, to the dissolution of the Templars in 1312. The present volume covers the period when the papal court was in Avignon and takes to story to 1378, a few years after the disastrous Genoese raid of 1373–4 which marked the beginning of the decline of Lusignan rule of the island. The book is organised in much the same way as its predecessor. The first chapter deals with the papacy, the secular Church and Cypriot lay society. It is followed by a chapter examining the relationship between the Latin Church and the crusading movement, including such aspects as the diplomatic and financial roles that it played in co-ordinating naval alliances and campaigns and the capture and defence of Smyrna (1344–1402), east-west trade and the movement of people to the east, and the provision made for the refugee religious communities and institutions which had fled from Latin Syria following the Mamluk conquests, including the patriarchate of Jerusalem itself. The next two chapters examine the administration, finances and discipline of the secular Church. These are followed by another two chapters on the regular Church, including sections on the mendicant and military orders, whose influence waned, however, following the relocation of the Hospitallers to Rhodes in 1308–9 and the suppression of the Templars in 1312. A final chapter deals with relations between the Latin Church and the non-Latin Christian communities. Coureas sensitively examines the reasons why, despite the provincial council of 1340's granting of freedom of religious practice in return for an acknowledgement of the supremacy of the Roman Catholic Church and adherence to Roman doctrine, the Latins ultimately failed to achieve any serious degree of religious integration with the Greek Orthodox, who made up the majority of the population. The book is clearly written, well produced, and like other volumes from the same publisher represents excellent value for money.
