| 520 | |a This article reappraises a frequently misunderstood witness to relations between Christianity and Islam in ninth-century al-Andalus, the polemical "Indiculus luminosus". Written in 854 by Paulus Alvarus, a lay Christian in Umayyad Córdoba, the "Indiculus" attempts to incite opposition to Islam among the Christian elites of the city by appropriating the language of prophetic authority, increasingly used throughout the Latin West, in imagined opposition to the Prophet Muḥammad. Alvarus´s "Indiculus" reflects his - and his intended audience´s - profound anxiety about Islam in the wake of the Córdoban matyrdoms and it attempts to discredit Muḥammad while simultaneously alienating Christians from the familiar religion to which they had long accommodated themselves within the Umayyad emirate. | ||
