Hi folks. Here are the books you will need for my course at the New School, Europe and Islam: Encounters Between Christianity and Islam, 700-1700.
Other (mostly short) readings will be assigned, which will be posted online; but these three books are required. They can be purchased from the New School online bookstore, at the Barnes & Noble store at 18th and Fifth, or from online retailers (Amazon links below). Some libraries may also have these books: use worldcat.org to search locally.
- Goddard, Hugh. A History of Christian-Muslim Relations. Chicago: New Amsterdam, 2000. ISBN: 1566633400
- Tolan, John Victor. Medieval Christian Perceptions of Islam. New York: Routledge, 2000. ISBN: 0415928923
