Overview

Christian-Muslim Relations, a Bibliographical History 23 (CMR 23), covering Russia, in the period 1800-1914, is a further volume in a general history of relations between the two faiths from the 7th century to the early 20th century. It comprises a series of introductory essays and the main body of detailed entries. These treat all the works, surviving or lost, that have been recorded. They provide biographical details of the authors, descriptions and assessments of the works themselves, and complete accounts of manuscripts, editions, translations and studies. The result of collaboration between numerous new and leading scholars, CMR 23, along with the other volumes in this series, is intended as a fundamental tool for research in Christian-Muslim relations.

Reviews

'Interest in Christian Arabic has increased compared to a few decades ago, yet it still involves very few people compared to, say, the study of the Middle Ages in the West. Brill's CMR series appears to be the biggest recent step forward by far. It is actually a fantastic read, full of thorough and surprising information. When I look up something in it, I usually find myself staying to read additional entries'. Krisztina Szilágyi, University of Cambridge
