"Arabs and the Middle East were among the first to embrace Christianity, leaving their
print on its culture. Thus Byzantium, by geography and culture, encountered Islam
at its birth. No wonder that many saw and treated Islam as a contemporary Christian
"heresy" - whatever the word may connote. Radical events fill the history of Byzantium
(330-1453) encountering the world of Islam: conquests, wars, cultural and diplomatic
relations, manifestations of mutual admiration - and exclusion! Their story makes
for a fascinating branch of either Byzantine or Islamic studies; the literature about
each other forming a distinguished section in either field. This collection of studies
is a sample of Byzantine perspectives of Islam offering, hopefully, expressions and
solutions rather than creating impressions or illusions"
