Publisher's Synopsis

It has become commonplace in medieval studies to speak of the "formation of a persecuting society" in medieval Catholic Europe. The Scholastics and the Jews, however, marks a major historiographical revision. Ed Mazza identifies the origins of missionary overtures to non-believers not so much with the drive for homogeneity as for holiness.
