Abstract
The term ‘prosopography’ differs from most of the other chapter headings in this book in that it refers not to a particular subject of scholarship, but to a form of historical inquiry. The Latin term prosopographia, from which the modern English word is derived, was coined in humanist circles in the sixteenth century; it derives from the Greek word prosopon, which is related to Latin persona and means ‘face, mask, role, person’. Prosopography is concerned with the study of the identities, lives and relationships of people in historical societies; yet while it seeks to compile and analyse information on individuals, its essential feature is that it is concerned with groups or sets of people.1 A short serviceable definition of prosopography would be ‘the compilation and analysis of data on a defined set of individuals’, and it should be stressed that prosopography goes far beyond the scope of traditional historical biography. One practical reason for this is that at least until the later Middle Ages, the nature of the surviving source material means that the amount of information necessary to write narrative biography of the traditional literary or historical type is generally restricted to relatively few monarchs, saints and bishops and a handful of other individuals, and even then, often with crucial gaps in the surviving evidence.

Notes
For a more detailed treatment of definitions of prosopography and the history of the term, particularly with regard to the medieval period, see: G. Beech, ‘Prosopography’, in Medieval Studies: An Introduction, ed. J. M. Powell (Syracuse, 1976), pp. 151–84; Neithard Bulst, ‘Zum Gegenstand und zur Methode von Prosopographie’, in Medieval Lives and the Historian: Studies in Medieval Prosopography, ed. N. Bulst and J-P. Genet (Kalamazoo, Mich., 1986), pp. 1–16, and K. F. Werner, ‘L’apport de la prosopographie a l’histoire sociale des elites’, in Family Trees and the Roots of Politics: The Prosopography ofBritain and France from the Tenth to the Twelfth Century, ed. K. S. B. Keats-Rohan (Woodbridge, 1997), pp. 1–21.
in addition to the specialist journal Medieval Prosopography: History and Collective Biography (Kalamazoo, Mich., 1980-), one can mention two other journals with a strong prosopographical interest: Francia: Forschungen zur westeuropaischen Geschichte (Sigmaringen, 1973—) and Fruhmittelalterliche Studien (Berlin, 1967-). There is also a purely electronic publication Prosopon: Newsletter of the Unit for Prosopographical Research, accessible at <www.linacre. ox.ac.uk/prosop/home.stm>.•

For bibliography on individual crusades, regions, families and individuals, see the relevant sections in H. E. Mayer, Bibliographie zur Geschichte der Kreuzzuge (Hannover, 1960); H. E. Mayer and J. McLellan, ‘Select Bibliography of the Crusades’, in A History of the Crusades, ed. K. M. Setton, 2nd edn (Madison, Wisc., 1969–89), vol. 6, The Impact of the Crusades on Europe, ed. H. W. Hazard and N. P. Zacour, pp. 511–664; and Z. Hunyadi, ‘A Bibliography of the Crusades and the Military Orders’, in The Crusades and the Military Orders: Expanding the Frontiers of Medieval Latin Christianity, ed. Z. Hunyadi and J. Laszlovsky (Budapest, 2001), pp. 501–88. Bibliography cited in the remainder of this chapter is meant to be representative rather than exhaustive, and studies of single individuals are largely excluded unless they have a wider prosopographical relevance. Prosopographical study of the military monastic orders, although beyond the scope of this chapter, is also relevant to the societies of the states established by the crusades in the Levant and the Baltic countries.
