The Routledge Handbook of Muslim-Jewish Relations invites readers to deepen their understanding of the historical, social, cultural, and political themes that impact modern-day perceptions of interfaith dialogue. The volume is designed to illuminate positive encounters between Muslims and Jews, as well as points of conflict, within a historical framework. Among other goals, the volume seeks to correct common misperceptions about the history of Muslim-Jewish relations by complicating familiar political narratives to include dynamics such as the cross-influence of literary and intellectual traditions. Reflecting unique and original collaborations between internationally-renowned contributors, the book is intended to spark further collaborative and constructive conversation and scholarship in the academy and beyond.
Josef Meri is a specialist in the history of interfaith relations in the Middle East in the past and present, Islamic history and civilization, and the history of religions with a focus on the Abrahamic faiths. He is a faculty member at the College of Islamic Studies, Hamad Bin Khalifa University, Doha, Qatar.
