Produktbeschreibung
It is frequently assumed that the modern era is the most multicultural in history. Arguing that this conception is widely mistaken, this innovative collection of essays presents the Medieval and Early Modern Mediterranean as a cultural melting pot characterized by hybridity, diversity, and cultural dynamism. Distinctive both in scope and approach, A Faithful Sea explores a wide array of Mediterranean religious traditions and identities, highlighting the cross-fertilization of people and society within the region. With contributions from leading specialists in history, religion, and cultural studies, readers from all backgrounds will find the concept of "Mediterraneity" both insightful and highly relevant amid a perceived gulf between contemporary Islam and Christianity.
