Sažetak
The author interprets the appearance, duration and distribution of the artistic rendering of the werrior with sword (Miles Ensifer) within the context of European revival c.1100 and Crusades. He cites literary sources and historic chronicles on the same topic which liken the wariror of those days to the champion of orthodoxy. He regards and analyses this phenomenon in arts (both in terms of semantics and iconography) in different monuments of European artistic heritage, e. g.: the portal of Verona Cathedral, Carolingian and Ottonian miniatures, the Baptistry in Split, the Cathedral of Ferrara, the portal at Fordington, England, the facades of St. Isidore's at Leone, Spain, at Vezelay, at St. Gilles-du Garde, stained glass windows in Strasbourg etc... Listed renderings and compositions epitomize a «holy», justified war against heresy, usually Islam. The author indicates typical iconographic variants of such renderings, as well as the distinction between the »holy« (often presented as St. George) and »profane« warrrior.
