"bubble-headed booby," "Neanderthal ninny," and "cantankerous clump." His over-the-top delivery and melodramatic cries of "We're doomed!" were a signature of the series.

Jonathan's research interests are mainly in the later period of Byzantine history (1100-1453) and in the interaction between Byzantium and Western Europe, especially during the Crusades and the Italian Renaissance.
His most recent book is Byzantium and the Crusades (Hambledon and London, 2003) which explores the complex relationship between the Byzantine empire and western Europe in the period 1050-1204.
Jonathan argues that the capture and sack of the Byzantine capital city of Constantinople in April 1204 by the Fourth Crusade was the result neither of a 'clash of cultures' nor of a series of unforeseen accidents.

 Review: The Crusades: The Essential Readings
His provocatively-entitled ‘Crusading as an act of love’ is a superlative attempt to understand crusade motivation on its own terms, while his later ‘Early crusaders to the east and the costs of crusading, 1095-1130’ forcefully argued against the notion that crusaders were Europe’s landless sons, going east solely in the hope of material gain.
Also included is Jonathan Tyerman’s radical ‘Were there any crusades in the twelfth century?’, which argues that it is misleading to regard crusades as a separate phenomenon from the general development of attitudes to warfare in western Europe before the pontificate of Innocent III (1198-1216).
Taken to their logical conclusion, Tyerman’s iconoclastic ideas would put an end to any debate on the crusades before 1198, since the very term is retrospective and inappropriate.
