HIST 100WCPO - Earliest Christian Views of Islam


CrsNo HIST100WCPO


When Offered: Offered alternate years; last offered spring 2011.

Instructor(s): K. Wolf

Over the course of the century following Muhammad’s death in 632, Muslim armies dominated the eastern, southern and western shores of the Mediterranean, areas that, up until then, had been in Christian hands. How Christian commentators came to terms with this religio-political transformation of their world is the subject of this seminar. A combination of primary sources from Greek, Syriac, Arabic and Latin Christians will be supplemented by the works of modern scholars. Letter grade only. (Ancient and Medieval Mediterranean)
