Join us for a virtual book discussion of "The Medieval Mediterranean between Islam and Christianity: Cross-pollinations in Art, Architecture, and Material Culture" edited by Sami Luigi De Giosa and Nikolaos Vryzidis (AUC Press, 2025). A volume that explores Christian-Islamic cultural exchange in the medieval Mediterranean through material culture—textiles, metalwork, architecture, and more—revealing how faiths intermingled across regions. Thirteen scholars examine cross-religious artifacts, shared artistic practices, and the movement of objects and craftsmen from Spain to Georgia. The book editors will be in conversation with Alison Ohta, Director of the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland. A Q&A session with the audience will follow the book discussion.
