As this subfield of scholarship becomes more crowded, and the topics of investigation more fissiparous, it is therefore refreshing to pick up a volume that is at once admirably focused and provocatively original. The thirteen essays that comprise this handsomely edited collection focus on interfaith scriptural exegesis, or on how Jewish, Christian, and Muslim scholars engaged with the sacred texts of their neighboring communities. As the essays amply demonstrate, such a program of study could be both doctrinally conservative and intellectually creative at the same time. Above all, these case studies challenge us to rethink some basic categories and boundaries involved in the study of medieval religious identities. Revisionist historiography (in its most productive sense) is in fact a recurring theme and constitutes one of the more exciting aspects of the collection as a whole.

Novikoff seeks to shed light on an ancient custom that became entrenched in medieval thought and culture. While there have been books on medieval disputatio before, the present work offers a welcome and more appreciative tone than many earlier and more negative perspectives.

Series: Sources for Byzantine Art History 3
In this book the beauty and meaning of Byzantine art and its aesthetics are for the first time made accessible through the original sources. More than 150 medieval texts are translated from nine medieval languages into English, with commentaries from over seventy leading scholars. These include theories of art, discussions of patronage and understandings of iconography, practical recipes for artistic supplies, expressions of devotion, and descriptions of cities. The volume reveals the cultural plurality and the interconnectivity of medieval Europe and the Mediterranean from the late eleventh to the early fourteenth centuries. The first part uncovers salient aspects of Byzantine artistic production and its aesthetic reception, while the second puts a spotlight on particular ways of expressing admiration and of interpreting of the visual.

The Mediterranean world in the Middle Ages was a zone of multiple and overlapping identities. In ... more The Mediterranean world in the Middle Ages was a zone of multiple and overlapping identities. In this zone of competing principalities and elites, various groups identified with a particular doctrinal ideology (what we will call "ecu-menian"). However, this was also a zone that was characterized by the interpen-etration of religious and ethnic communities. Muslims, Jews, and Christians of various denominations and orientations lived amongst each other, rubbing and jostling shoulders socially, competing and collaborating economically, serving in each others' administrations and armies, pleading in each others' courts, passing through each others' homes and beds, and occasionally killing or otherwise inflicting oppression or violence on each other. Running beneath the formal differences that circumscribed these various real or imagined communities were powerful commonalities. The peoples of the medieval Mediterranean all acknowledged themselves as Abrahamic monotheists who venerated the prophets and patriarchs of the Hebrew tradition. All were heirs to or appropriators of Perso-Hellenistic culture and of Roman and Byzantine institutions, and they shared many of the same legends, myths, folk traditions and magical beliefs. They were joined by common social values and similar ideas regarding gender, social order, beauty, sophistication, and the family. They spoke common languages and shared the sacred languages of their confessional neighbors; they read each others' scripture and appropriated each others' literary traditions. Together this made the Mediterranean a zone of "mutual intelligibility" wherein shared languages, values and conceptual repertoires lubricated cultural communication and made it possible for multi-ethnic, multi-confessional societies to find common ground and ME_024_05-06_01_CatlosNovikoff.indd 503
