Examining women's property rights in different societies across the
entire medieval and early modern Mediterranean, this volume
introduces a unique comparative perspective to the complexities of
gender relations in Muslim, Jewish, and Christian communities.
Through individual case studies based on urban and rural, elite and
non-elite, religious and secular communities, Across the Religious
Divide presents the only nuanced history of the region that
incorporates peripheral areas such as Portugal, the Aegean Islands,
Dalmatia, and Albania into the central narrative. By bridging the
present-day notional and cultural divide between Muslim and
Judeo-Christian worlds with geographical and thematic coherence,
this collection of essays by top international scholars focuses on
women in courts of law and sources such as notarial records,
testaments, legal commentaries, and administrative records to offer
the most advanced research and illuminate real connections across
boundaries of gender, religion, and culture.
