| Abstract: |
The Disputa del bisbe de Jaen contra los jueus-a work attributed to Pere Pasqual, a thirteenth-century Mercedarian from Valencia-contains two chapters that vilify Muḥammad and disparage various Muslim beliefs. In these chapters, we find clichés borrowed from anti-Islamic polemics written by previous authors, although there was probably also some direct influence from an Arabic source. The question of whether the Mercedarian Pere Pasqual, who was canonized in 1670, authored the work remains an open one. Answering this question requires a comprehensive analysis of textual features that allow us to date the text. Moreover, the use of Islam in an anti-Jewish treatise is a polemical strategy typical of medieval religious polemics. |
