{"product_id":"history-as-prelude-joseph-v-montville-9780739184516","title":"History as Prelude: Muslims and Jews in the Medieval Mediterranean","description":"This collection of essays by seven scholars is a straightforward narrative of real world--intellectual, commercial, spiritual, philosophical, scientific, aesthetic--creative engagement among Jews, Muslims, and some Christians in daily life in Spain and around the Mediterranean. History as Prelude is a major contribution to the Israeli-Arab peace process because it undermines--in fact, blows away--the efforts of propagandists who serve governments or political movements to negate the reality of the Arab-Jewish relationship in the medieval Mediterranean. The contributors, in unassuming, well-researched scholarship have erected a wall protecting historical reality from distortion, providing irrefutable--and often delightful--examples of creative coexistence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joseph V.
