Exploring and understanding how medieval Christians perceived and
constructed the figure of the Prophet Muhammad is of capital
relevance in the complex history of Christian-Muslim relations.
Medieval authors writing in Latin from the 8th to the 14th
centuries elaborated three main images of the Prophet: the
pseudo-historical, the legendary, and the eschatological one. This
volume focuses on the first image and consists of texts that aim to
reveal the (Christian) truth about Islam. They have been taken from
critical editions, where available, otherwise they have been
critically transcribed from manuscripts and early printed books.
They are organized chronologically in 55 entries: each of them
provides information on the author and the work, date and place of
composition, an introduction to the passage(s) reported, and an
updated bibliography listing editions, translations and studies.
The volume is also supplied with an introductory essay and an index
of notable terms.
