A Faithful Sea

0 - Default Title
Description
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.
