In popular culture, the orders, particularly the Templars, have been the subject of or inspiration for films, books, television, and video games, from \u003ci\u003eStar Wars\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eThe Da Vinci Code\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eAssassin's Creed\u003c\/i\u003e. In this volume, an overview of the early legacies of the military orders in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries is followed by studies of the Templar conspiracy theories of Rosslyn Chapel, the Venerable Order of St John's creation of a medieval past, the legacy of the Hospitallers in modern Greece, the military orders in nineteenth-century Mexico, and the use of the Knights Templar by the far-right in Bolsonaro's Brazil. Ultimately, it expands the scope of the field and indicates further avenues for research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Modern Memory of the Military-religious Orders\u003c\/i\u003e is a valuable resource for students and scholars of the crusades, the military orders, and medievalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRory MacLellan\u003c\/strong\u003e is a postdoctoral research fellow at Historic Royal Palaces.
