DESCRIPTION:Research on the written and material sources for Jewish-Christ
 ian interaction in medieval and early modern times has been\, for the most
  part\, focused on Western Europe and the Byzantine Empire. In these areas
 \, Jews lived as a minority under Christian rule. In contrast\, in regions
  to the east of the Byzantine Empire\, from the eastern Mediterranean to C
 entral Asia\, the Red Sea and India\, Jews and Christians interacted\, in 
 some cases\, on different terms: Jews and Christians as two minority group
 s\; Jews and Christians as two sovereign entities\; and "imagined" Jews\, 
 appearing in Christian texts\, artistic representations and discourse in r
 egions where Jews may not have existed.\n\nUp to the present\, research on
  Jewish-Christian interaction east of the Byzantine Empire in medieval and
  early modern times (ca. 600-1800 CE) has tended to focus on textual evide
 nce. This conference will examine the ways in which material culture can s
 hed light on this interaction. The regions which will be addressed include
  the Near East\, the Caucasus\, Central Asia\, China\, India and the Horn 
 of Africa.\n\nProgramme of the conference\n\n
