520 This significant new work focuses on the formation and
disintegration of Arab-Muslim rule and society in Sicily
and south Italy between 800 and 1300 which led to the
creation of an enduring Muslim-Christian frontier during
the age of the Crusades. It examines the long and short-
term impact of Islamic authority and culture on these
regions and how they later fell into the hands of European
rulers, explaining how the Norman conquest of Sicily came
to import radically different dynamics to the central
Mediterranean. The change of ruling elites left a majority
Muslim population under Christian rule, but the Sicilian
kings also adopted and adapted political ideologies from
south Mediterranean regimes while absorbing cultural
influences from the diverse peoples over whom they ruled.
This work provides an engaging, expert and wide-ranging
introduction to the subject and offers fresh and clear
insights into the politico-religious, socio-economic and
cultural evolution of Europe and the Islamic world. --
