'Le professeur D. Pringle compte certainement parmi les meilleurs connaisseurs de l’histoire, de l’archéologie et de l’architecture médiévales au Proche-Orient ; il est également l’un des auteurs les plus prolixes de la période récente, et les travaux qu’il a publiés depuis le début des années 80 n’ont pas peu contribué au développement de la connaissance de la Terre Sainte.'
