Or were Jews under Muslim rule persecuted, much as they were in Christian lands? Rejecting both polemically charged ideas as myths, Mark Cohen offers a systematic comparison of Jewish life in medieval Islam and Christendom--and the first in-depth explanation of why medieval Islamic-Jewish relations, though not utopic, were less confrontational and violent than those between Christians and Jews in the West.Under Crescent and Cross has been translated into Turkish, Hebrew, German, Arabic, French, and Spanish, and its historic message continues to be relevant across continents and time. This updated edition, which contains an important new introduction and afterword by the author, serves as a great companion to the original.ACLS Humanities E-Book.JudaismHistoryMedieval and early modern period, 425-1789JudaismRelationsIslamJudaismRelationsChristianityIslamRelationsJudaismChristianity and other religions - JudaismHistoryMiddle Ages, 600-1500ChristianityRelationsJudaismAaron ben Amram.Abdallah (sultan).Abraham ben Moses ben Maimon.Ahmad Pasha.Almohad persecutions.Bar Kokhba rebellion.Black Death.Boccalini, Traiano.Book of Yossipon.Caesarius (bishop of Arles).Cahorsin moneylenders.Chronicle of Seért.Claudius (Roman emperor).Constantine (Roman emperor).Constitution of Medina.Dagobert (Merovingian king).Edward I (king of England).Ephraim of Bonn.Eusebius of Alexandria.Ezra the Scribe.Geonic responsa.Germanic rulers.Gregory IX (pope).Hadrian (Roman emperor).Ibn Gabirol, Solomon.Ibn Picho.Islamization.Jewish culture.John of Damascus.Labor party (Israel).Land Peace Law.Latin language.Malikite school.Marcion.Mongol conquest.Origen.Pablo Christiani.adultery: punishment for.antisemitism: of Arabs.baptism.bourgeoisie.canon lawyers.chamber serfdom.collective responsibility.credit transactions.deicide.divine election.ethnicity.heretics.humiliation.intellectuals.interdenominational religiosity.judaizare.nomism.polytheism.JudaismHistoryMedieval and early modern period, 425-1789.JudaismRelationsIslam.JudaismRelationsChristianity.IslamRelationsJudaism.Christianity and other religions - JudaismHistoryMiddle Ages, 600-1500.ChristianityRelationsJudaism.261.26Cohen Mark R.1943-193309American Council of Learned Societies.MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK996248053703316Under crescent and cross1886148UNISA
