Parution : Mercedes Garcia-Arenal and Yonatan Glazer-Eytan (éd), Forced Conversion in Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Coercion and Faith in Premodern Iberia and Beyond, Brill, nov 2019.Series:Numen Book Series, Volume: 164Editors: Mercedes García-Arenal and Yonatan Glazer-EytanFocusing on the Iberian Peninsula but examining related European and Mediterranean contexts as well, Forced Conversion in Christianity, Judaism and Islam traces how Christians, Jews, and Muslims grappled with the contradictory phenomenon of faith brought about by constraint and compulsion. Forced conversion brought into sharp relief the tensions among the accepted notion of faith as a voluntary act, the desire to maintain “pure” communities, and the universal truth claims of radical monotheism. Offering a comparative view of an important yet insufficiently studied phenomenon in the history of religions, this collection of essays explores the ways in which religion and violence reshaped these three religions and the ways we understand them today. Table of ContentsIntroduction: Forced Conversion and the Reshaping of Judaism, Christianity and Islam: Tradition, Interpretation, HistoryBy: Mercedes García-Arenal and Yonatan Glazer-EytanPages: 1–31  Uses and Echoes of Visigothic Conciliar Legislation in the Scholastic Controversy on Forced Baptism (Thirteenth and Fourteenth Centuries)By: Elsa MarmursztejnPages: 33–59  “Qui ex Iudeis sunt”: Visigothic Law and the Discrimination against Conversos in Late Medieval SpainBy: Rosa Vidal DovalPages: 60–85  Theorizing Coercion and Consent in Conversion, Apostasy, Ordination, and Marriage (Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries)By: Isabelle PoutrinPages: 86–109  Again on Forced Conversion in the Almohad PeriodBy: Maribel FierroPages: 111–132  The Intellectual Genealogy of Almohad Policy towards Christians and JewsBy: David J.
