Europe’s Islamic Legacy: 1900 to the Present : Proceedings of the Online Conference Hosted by the University of Cambridge on 20 October 2020

Abstract

Seven new scholarly essays present original research that includes rare historical and photographic materials highlighting the significance of Islamic civilization and its vexed legacy in a variety of contemporary European countries and challenging the perception of European identity as exclusively Christian. This volume unearths a rich, complex history of relationships between Muslims and Christians in Europe whose value lies in the close and continued connections between them that began so long ago on European soil.
