Religious Studies 228S: From Different to Monstrous: Muslim (and Christian) Subversions and Coercions
3.00 Credits
Hamilton College
The Iberian Peninsula (now home to Spain and Portugal) was the site of over 700 years of medieval Jewish, Muslim and Christian exchanges. A look into this textual space of Iberian difference after it was officially labeled as dark, evil and monstrous by the Renaissance Catholic Church State. A consideration of marginal Muslim writers like Ibrahim de Bolfad, Muhammad Rabadan and al-Wahrani exposes so-called proponents of Catholic orthodoxy like Don Quijote de la Mancha - not as enemies, but as fellow skeptics of the Monarchy's attempts to extinguish difference. (Writing-intensive.) Prerequisite, one course in literature. (Same as Comparative Literature 228.) Maximum enrollment, 20. A Mescall.
