Author : Francisco de Borja Medina Rojas
Resource related to the group “Islam and society in contemporary Spain”
Abstract :
Two cultures, the Islamic and the Chris- tian, that, at first sight seem antagonistic, yet due to the close contact maintained by both of them in some moments of history, offer us mutual influences. All along this essay we shall endeavor to show to the reader some brief samples of that interchange between the two cultures, so that they may serve as a foun- dation for present day dialogues, and by this we finish establishing which is the state of the question, about these parallelisms and simi- larities between the mentioned spiritualities.

Résumé :
Deux cultures, islamique et chrétienne, qui semblent à première vue antagonistes en raison du contact étroit qu’elles ont entretenu à certains moments de l’histoire, nous présentent des influences mutuelles. Tout au long de ce bref essai, nous essaierons de montrer au lecteur quelques exemples de cet échange entre les deux cultures, afin qu’ils puissent servir de base aux dialogues actuels. Nous commencerons donc par établir l’état de la question sur les parallèles et les similitudes entre les spiritualités susmentionnées.
