This book explores the history of Muslim-Christian theological
exchanges in Iran during the 17th and early 18th centuries. Focused
on the work of the renegade missionary 'Ali Quli Jadid al-Islam (d.
1734), it contributes to ongoing debates on the nature of
confessionalism, interreligious encounters, and cultural
translation in early modern Muslim empires. By disentangling the
connections between polemics and other forms of Islamic learning
and by emphasizing the Shi'i character of the case in question,
this study accounts for the dynamism of polemics as an
ever-evolving genre capable to adapt to different historical
contexts.
