{"product_id":"from-oriens-christianus-to-islamic-near-east","title":"From 'Oriens Christianus' to Islamic Near East","description":"The volume offers a new contribution to the study of the Near East and Eastern Mediterranean during Late Antiquity, the Early Islamic and Medieval periods. Originating from a two-day workshop held at the Chair of Byzantine Studies at Freie Universität Berlin (Dec. 7th-8th, 2017), it approaches Christian-Muslim coexistence between the fourth and tenth centuries CE through an interdisciplinary lens. The objective is to present a unified and holistic approach to Late Antique and Early Islamic Studies (LAESSI), revealing the interactions that shaped the transformation from \u003ci\u003eOriens Christianus to Islamic Near East\u003c\/i\u003e (OCINE).\u003cbr\u003eThe edited volume gathers an international, interdisciplinary group of scholars to explore and better understand the Near Eastern milieu in Late Antiquity and the Early Islamic period. Divided into three sections, \u003ci\u003eHistoriographical Cross-Pollination\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTheological Cross-Pollination\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eCultural Cross-Pollination\u003c\/i\u003e, the chapters examine the coexistence of Christian and Muslim cultural spheres in an intellectual space of complex interactions and exchanges. Discussions include a variety of perspectives on geography, historiography, philosophy, theology, imperial eschatology, and perceptions of the 'other', as well as monasticism, ecclesiastical structures, and the influence of art, epigraphy, and music in Christian-Muslim encounters.\u003cbr\u003eThrough this framework, the volume aims to uncover the ways these cross-pollinations impacted the development of diverse regions, cultures, languages, and religious traditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e            \u003cbr\u003eTABLE OF CONTENTS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e            \u003cbr\u003eMANOLIS ULBRICHT, JENS SCHEINER\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction  11\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e            \u003cbr\u003eHISTORIOGRAPHICAL CROSS-POLLINATION\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e            \u003cbr\u003eEVANGELOS CHRYSOS\u003ci\u003eArabia minor, Arabia magna\u003c\/i\u003e in Theophanes: A Short Reflection on the Late Antique World-View  19\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e            \u003cbr\u003eREINHOLD F.
