This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eleven essays included in this collective volume examine a range of textual genres produced by Christians and Muslims throughout the Mediterranean, including materials from the Corpus Islamolatinum, Christian propaganda and polemical works targeting Muslims and Jews, Inquisition records, and Christian and Muslim sermons. Despite the diversity of the works under consideration and the variety of methodological and disciplinary approaches employed in their analysis, the volume is bound together by the common goals of exploring the propaganda strategies premodern authors deployed for specific aims, be it the unification of religious, cultural, and political groups through discourses of self-representation, or the invention of the political, cultural, religious, or gendered other. Many of the essays offer critical re-readings of works that are obscure or have never been studied, while others shed new light on the cultural and textual interactions between Christians, Muslims and Jews. The volume is divided into four sections, the first of which is comprised of three chapters on the Corpus Islamolatinum that furnish new evidence showing the important role this “encyclopedia” played in spreading knowledge about Islam and contributing to the creation of propaganda and polemics against Islam among European intellectual circles. The chapters in section two offer novel interpretations of the hermeneutical strategies underlying the composition of polemical works such as the lives of Muhammad and Pedro de la Cavalleria’s Zelus Christi. The essays in section three identify some common hermeneutical strategies in the use of anti-Jewish and anti-Islamic arguments to polemicize against religious others or edify Christians and illuminate intertextual relations between authors and genres (disputatio and praedicatio). Finally, section four introduces the gender perspective: the genered nature of the accusations of Judaizing in the analysis of the transcripts of the inquisitorial court of three sisters who were tried in Barcelona in 1496, on the one hand, and two studies that explore the constructions of identities and gender relations reflected in various Islamic sources from opposite ends of the Mediterranean. They offer glimpses of women as subject (s) and as object (s) of preaching and show how such texts can reify or subvert traditional binary gender roles.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Class of 1882, Baccalaureate Sermon, Class Day Oration, Etc Now what does this mood in which you find yourselves to-day real ly mean? What does it mean - this repeated reference of the parts of life to the end of life and then the transfer of each end as it is reached into a means to a larger end? What does it mean - this re peated broadening of the horizon of one's purposes as though one climbed what seemed a summit and saw on the one hand a larger world about him, and on the other hand a higher summit above? I ask you to see that it means a great deal. In the first place it is the secret of all sagacious, large, effective living. I suppose the very nature of a small life is its momentary fragmentary nature, its finding in piecemeal work a sufficient unity, its getting so bent down over one part of life that it cannot look up and see the breadth and beauty of the whole; and I suppose the very essence of a large life lies in this - that it is not overborne by details or absorbed in fragmentary interests, but that the scattered facts and materials of its experience take their place in the orderly structure of a permanent plan. Who is the small man of science? It is he to whom the acquisition of facts is everything and the meaning of facts is nothing; he to whom fragments of knowledge are sufficient and co-ordinated knowledge is a stranger. Such a man may be a learned man but he remains a small man. He is forever arranging his materials and collecting his specimens but he is in reality drying, pressing and labelling his own life among the rest. And who is the great naturalist? It is he who perceives in the slightest inci dents of his pursuit not merely what they are but what they point to. Each aspect of Nature, however microscopic in itself, is eloquent with suggestions, each part ministers to the theory of the whole; each apparent accident reports the method of a general law. Such a student stands before the apparently trivial phenom ena of the fertilization of a flower or the work of an earth-worm and inquires of them, like a Prophet of Israel -what shall be the end of these things? Who is the small man of business? It is he for whom the immediate results of business are the complete results; for whom it is enough to gain and to thrive from day to day without much thought of what gaining and thriving are. Such a man is forever getting the means to live instead of living; andso it comes to pass that instead of a career broadening with his enlarging means he finds himself more and more shut in by nar rowing and converging walk. He is like a fish swimming uncon sciously into the labyrinth of a weir. The net-work of his occupation hems him in closer and closer, until even in the element where he thinks himself most free he is held a prisoner and the possessions which he thought he had got turn out to have got him. And who is the wise man of affairs? It is he who in the midst of details remains aware of the purpose which details should serve; who in the midst of his getting gets, as the Scripture says, under standing; for whom the parts of life minister to the whole of life. Such a man comes to the end of his work and there is something there. He has not buried all his resources of content in the tomb of professional eminence. The work of his life contributes to the larger needs of his life. He anticipates old age and provides for himself resources which will not then fail. He observes the drift of his vocation and corrects it by refreshing avocations. From the beginning he sees the end.
