In 1306/1307 the Master of the Hospital Foulques de Villaret presented a crusading treatise in Latin to the pope. A second, and in some ways rather different, Hospitaller treatise in French has, despite occasional doubts, almost unanimously been placed between 1307 and 1310. It seems, however, to be datable between 1310 and 1328, possibly to the years 1319 to 1323. The later dating would impose some adjustments to the history of projects to recover Jerusalem and in particular to the varied interpretations of the lesser or preliminary operations often termed a passagium particulare.
