Muslim and Jew: Origins, Growth, Resentment

By Aaron W. Hughes

Book Overview

Muslim and Jew: Origins, Growth, Resentment seeks to show how and why these two religious traditions have been involved in political and theological self-definitions using the other since the seventh century. This short volume provides a historical and comparative survey of how each religion has thought about the other and, in so doing, about itself. It confines itself to those points at which Judaism and Islam intersect and cross-pollinate and explores how this delicate process continues into the present with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
