COHEN, MARK R. - Under crescent & cross. The Jews in the Middle Ages. ISBN 9780691033785

Princeton, 1994. XXII, 280 pp. Very good copy. Orig. cloth, with dustjacket. Did Muslims and Jews in the Middle Ages cohabit in a peaceful "interfaith utopia?" Or were Jews under Muslim rule persecuted, much as they were in Christian lands? Rejecting both polemically charged "myths," Mark Cohen offers a systematic comparison of Jewish life in medieval Islam and Christendom--the first in-depth explanation of why medieval Islamic-Jewish relations, though not utopic, were less confrontational and violent than those between Christians and Jews in the West.
