The Religious Polemics of the Muslims of Late Medieval Christian
Iberia examines the corpus of polemical literature against the
Christians and the Jews of the protected Muslims (Mudejars).
Commonly portrayed as communities in cultural and religious decay,
Monica Colominas convincingly proves that the discourses against
the Christians and the Jews in Mudejar treatises provided
authoritative frameworks of Islamic normativity which helped to
legitimize the residence of their communities in the Christian
territories. Colominas argues that, while the primary aim of the
polemics was to refute the views of their religious opponents,
Mudejar treatises were also a tool used to advance Islamic
knowledge and to strengthen the government and social cohesion of
their communities.
