Muslim and Jew : Origins, Growth, Resentment, Paperback / softback Book

Muslim and Jew : Origins, Growth, Resentment Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Focus on Religion series

Paperback / softback

Description

Muslim and Jew: Origins, Growth, Resentment seeks to show how and why Islam and Judaism have been involved in political and theological self-definitions using the other since the seventh century.

This short volume provides a historical and comparative survey of how each religion has thought about the other and, in so doing, about itself.

It confines itself to those points at which Judaism and Islam intersect and cross-pollinate, and explores how this delicate process continues into the present with the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.

Muslim and Jew thus seeks to move beyond the intersection of a monolithic Judaism and a monolithic Islam and instead examines and organizes the messiness of the encounter as both religions sought to define themselves within, from, and against the other.
