Description

This scholarly volume from the Helsinki Yearbook of Intellectual History series examines how medieval and early modern thought addressed the concept of otherness across Abrahamic religious traditions. Moving beyond traditional views of these traditions as uniformly intolerant, the book presents a diachronic and comparative analysis of how different cultures and belief systems recognised and engaged with otherness in all its complexity. Part I focuses on altruism, exploring the social rights, emotions, and moral obligations that shaped how individuals and communities responded to those different from themselves. This rigorous academic treatment fills a significant gap in intellectual history scholarship by synthesising recent research that challenges conventional narratives about religious tolerance and the recognition of human diversity during the medieval and early modern periods.

Key Features

De Gruyter Oldenbourg publishes this volume as part of the Helsinki Yearbook of Intellectual History series, ensuring peer-reviewed academic quality and scholarly authority.

The book presents comparative analysis of otherness across medieval and early modern Abrahamic religious traditions, offering fresh perspectives on tolerance and recognition.

Part I examines altruism through the lens of social rights, emotions, and moral obligations, grounding abstract concepts in historical human behaviour and thought.

This diachronic study traces how understanding of otherness evolved over time, moving beyond static characterisations of medieval and early modern religious intolerance.
