Review

Metcalfe has provided a welcome and up-to-date scholarly study of a unique and complex society that dominated the central Mediterranean, and ultimately fixed the dividing line between Islam and Christianity.

Top review from the United States

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2024
Another fine entry by this author, who has previously written about this topic.

Since around 1995, one has seen a growing wave of articles and monographs published about the Muslims of medieval southern Italy. The most lengthy, and one which arguably defines the field in English, is the history of Sicily's Muslims by Leonard Chiarelli, but Jeremy Johns and Hiroshi Takayama have contributed much, and in French there are Henri Bresc and Annliese Nef, among others.

It is worth noting that much work now presented in English translation was already transcribed from the source documents, with much translated into Italian or French. Here Michele Amari comes to mind. Even so, new approaches and analyses are always welcome.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ottimo, ma sarebbe meglio in italiano
Reviewed in Italy on January 3, 2015
Una delle più complete e aggiornate disamine su un aspetto particolare della Storia italiana. La pecca più notevole è che l'inglese utilizzato dall'autore è piuttosto ostico e spesso richiede l'utilizzo di un dizionario. Sono in attesa dell'edizione italiana, prevista già da due anni ma della quale si sono perse tutte le notizie.
