Description

This Routledge collection compiles Sonja Brentjes's scholarly articles examining travels, encounters and knowledge exchange across the Mediterranean and Western Asia during the 16th and 17th centuries. The work addresses three key historiographical questions: how to understand Christian-Muslim relations during this transformative period, situated between the medieval Arabic-to-Latin translations and the Napoleonic invasion of Ottoman Egypt in 1798; the Western discourse surrounding the perceived decline of sciences in late medieval and early modern periods; and the broader intellectual currents shaping cross-cultural encounters. Brentjes draws on primary sources and historical analysis to challenge conventional narratives about East-West relations and scientific development, offering fresh perspectives on how European travellers engaged with Ottoman and Safavid knowledge systems. This collection is essential reading for historians of science, religious studies, early modern history, and Middle Eastern studies seeking to understand knowledge production and cultural exchange beyond Western-centric frameworks.

Key Features

Sonja Brentjes's collected studies focus on 16th and 17th century travels and knowledge exchange in Mediterranean and Western Asian regions.

The collection examines Christian-Muslim relations from the medieval translation period through the late 18th century Ottoman context.

Articles challenge Western narratives about scientific decline in late medieval and early modern Islamic societies.

Routledge published this Variorum Collected Studies volume to provide comprehensive historical scholarship on cross-cultural encounters.
