A Brief History of Islam in Europe

كتب
Maurits S. Berger

About this material

This book provides a comprehensive overview and discussion of changes that have occurred ever since Islam first emerged in Europe thirteen centuries ago. The incidents and narratives provided deepen our comprehension of current discussions and preconceptions about Islam and Muslims in Europe. This book demonstrates how Islam and Muslims have undergone numerous metamorphoses over the course of thirteen centuries. The Muslim has come into the scene in Europe as a conqueror, the antichrist, a scholar, a great ruler, a corsair, a tradesman, and a fellow citizen. As a result, Islam has come to be seen as a religion that may be studied for missionary, scholarly, colonial, or security purposes as well as one that might be feared as an enemy or embraced as an ally against heretical Christians.
