Christian-Muslim Dialogue in the Late Middle Ages


Gettysburg Conference
October 12-14, 2012

The Thirteenth Biennial Conference 
of the International Seminar on 
Pre-Reformation Theology 
and the American Cusanus Society

CHRISTIAN MUSLIM DIALOGUE IN THE LATE MIDDLE AGES
25th Anniversary Year


Our focus will be on works by Nicholas of Cusa (De pace fidei, 1453, a dialogue on world religions, and Cribratio Alkorani, 1460-61, a critical reading of the Qur’an) and his contemporary John of Segovia. We shall also consider the Qur'an’s portrayal of Jesus and other Muslim responses to Christianity. In the end, we hope that our discussions will contribute to today’s urgent need for improved understanding between Muslims and Christians.
