ENGHow did pre-modern scholars conceive of contagion and the transmissibility of disease in general? Infectious Ideas answers this question by looking carefully at both Muslim and Christian scholarship in Medieval and Early Modern Iberia and North Africa.

In order to truly understand the nature of contagion and contagious diseases in the scholarship of Muslims and Christians in Medieval Iberia, we need to explore the discourses that defined and debated the nature of contagion.RUSКак религиозные общины реагировали на эпидемические заболевания и осмысляли их?
