Dante and Islam - Dante's World: Historicizing Literary Cultures of the Due and Trecento
Jan M. Ziolkowski
Controversy has raged about Christian perspectives on Muslims in Dante’s Divine Comedy. One extreme emphasizes “clash of civilizations,” another peaceful cohabitation. Dante’s fit within orientalism remains debated. Sifting the issues requires investigating the Qur’an and Islamic learning, Dante’s images of Muhammad, and engagement among Muslims, Jews, and Christians in Italy.
