Description

A sourcebook of major Arabic Christian theologians and texts from the 9th-11th centuries.

Christian authors who spoke and wrote Arabic had no choice but to engage with Islam and the complex realities of life-initially as a majority, later as a minority-under Muslim rule.

They had to express their theology in new ways, polemicize against the claims of a new religion, as well as defend their doctrines against Islam's challenges.
