Western Views of Islam in Medieval and Early Modern Europe

Perception of Other

1st ed edition

"Western Views of Islam considers the various attitudes of European religious and secular writers toward Islam during the Middle Ages and Early Modern Period. Examining works from England, France, Italy, the Holy Lands, and Spain, the essays in this volume explore the reactions of Westerners to the culture and religion of Islam. Many of the works studied reveal the hostility of Europeans toward Islam and the creation of negative stereotypes of Muslims by Western writers.

These essays also reveal attempts at accommodation and understanding that stand in contrast to the prevailing hostility that existed then, and in some ways, exists still today."--BOOK JACKET.
