Venetian involvement in the crusades and other anti-Ottoman military actions of the late Fourteenth to the mid-Fifteenth centuries has never received a comprehensive study. This thesis sets out to fill that gap by providing analysis of the Venice and the Venetians during this time and investigating why Venice joined the crusades discussed, namely: the Crusade of Nicopolis and the Crusade of Varna, and how they participated in the defence of two major Aegean cities, Thessaloniki and Constantinople. Throughout the course of the paper I investigate why Venice got involved, challenging the typical historiographical answer that the Venetians only sought personal gain. I attempt highlight the positive actions the Venetians made towards assisting in these campaigns while at the same time not trying to downplay the hindrances and problems that the often caused during these times. Furthermore, throughout the thesis I challenge the writings of several historians who would attempt to portray Venice as a minor concern in these campaigns. This work will show that Venice, while a small state territorially, was a major proponent of these crusades and sets out to begin a deeper discussion of the role the Venetians played and their motivations for engaging in these conflicts.
