Description
First Published in 1995. The life of Jews in medieval Baghdad or 18th-century Tunis may now be considered to be important as Jewish life in 13th-century Worms or 19th-century Poland. Islamic theological and exegetical writing on Judaism may now command as much interest as their counterparts in Christian literature, while the rich Islamic-Jewish cultural interchange over many centuries is clearly of great significance. Studies in Muslim-Jewish Relations will be a series of general volumes each including a wide range of subjects, periodic edited volumes each focusing on a certain theme, and a planned related monograph series which will publish authored volumes on more specialized aspects of the field. This volume is a collection of twelve essays.
