The articles in this collection complement those in Professor
Griffith's previous volume, Arabic Christianity in the Monasteries
of 9th-Century Palestine, studying the first efforts of Christians
living in the early Islamic world to respond to the religious
challenges of Islam. In particular, the author shows how Christian
apologists who wrote in Arabic adopted in defense of Christian
doctrines the modes of discourse (kalam) then employed by Muslim
controversialists (mutakallimun) to advance the claims of Islam.
The writers whose works are studied here developed a truly
Christian 'ilm al-kalam, that is to say a science of defending
Christianity in an Arabic idiom borrowed largely from Muslims.
