Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the complex interplay between Christian and Muslim communities in eleventh and twelfth-century Sicily, the study explores how Norman rulers integrated Muslim individuals into their governance, relying on them for political strength. It highlights the lack of criticism from Latin Christendom regarding this integration and examines the roots of rising Christian violence against Muslims in the later twelfth century, framing it within the broader context of growing anti-Islamic sentiment in Western Europe.
