From the end of the eleventh century, the countries of the Levant were confronted with two types of assailants: the Crusaders, who seized Jerusalem in 1099, then the Mongols of Iran who invaded Syria-Palestine in 1260. During Throughout this period, the political power and the indigenous populations were in the presence of an "Other" in all its otherness: religious, cultural and linguistic. Historians and literaries alike, the authors of the contributions collected here offer a cross-reading on the perception of the Other - whether it is an individual, an ethnic or religious group. ER -
