Projecting Identity onto the Other : Christian Identities in Medieval Preaching and Polemics1
Catalán, Oriol (Universitat Pompeu Fabra)

Imprint: Bellaterra : Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Servei de Publicacions, 2020
Abstract: Religious polemics and sermons are two common sources for studying the image of religious minorities in the Middle Ages. Yet these works also construct Christian identity. While it might seem initially that this identity is the opposite of the image created to portray minorities, a closer look reveals that Christian identity is not homogeneous or immutable and that Christian authors end up portraying (bad) Christians using the same images and characteristics as are used for Jews and Muslims.
