To study the interactions between Muslims and Christians in the medieval period is to observe a history of conflict and co-existence encompassing warfare; piracy; and raiding as well as commerce; intellectual exchanges; and personal relationships that transcended religious differences. With particular focus on the Mediterranean world; this collection of more than 80 readings includes sources from Byzantine; Jewish; Muslim; and Latin Christian authors that explore the conflicts and contacts between Muslims and Christians from the seventh to the fifteenth century. Jarbel Rodriguez has selected geographically diverse readings and multiple sources on the same event or topic so that readers gain a better understanding of the relationship that existed between Muslims and Christians in the Middle Ages.
