La violence symbolique dans les relations entre Pise et Tunis au xiiie siècle
À la fin de l’été 1200, deux navires pisans attaquèrent le port de Tunis. Les pirates capturèrent trois bateaux musulmans, tuant un certain nombre des passagers et maltraitant une partie des femmes. Des représentants pisans négocièrent la libération des passagers survivants, ainsi que de deux des bateaux. Les pirates partirent avec le dernier navire, mais la flotte almohade les arrêta un peu plus loin sur la côte, à Rās al-Jabal. Les autorités al…
“Dragomans and the Cultivation and Use of Trust in Thirteenth-Century Mediterranean Commerce”
The medieval Mediterranean has emerged in recent years as a laboratory for studying intercultural relations. Historians have moved away for the most part from the binary oppositions that so often served as the analytical context for communications across and throughout the Middle Sea. As the Mediterranean has become almost synonymous with intercultural contact, numerous studies have centered on those who facilitated contact between members of the…
The taifa of Denia and the Jewish networks of the medieval Mediterranean
The rulers of Denia, on the Mediterranean coast of eleventh-century Islamic Spain, and one of the principal taifas, or kingdoms, to emerge from the fallen caliphate of Cordoba, developed a unique maritime policy that bound their polity to the Mediterranean. The taifa is best known for its active promotion of piracy against Christian coasts, as well as its failed conquest of Sardinia, but the port also participated in direct maritime trade with Ch…
Commercial conflict resolution across the religious divide in the thirteenth-century Mediterranean
Commercial conflict resolution in the medieval Mediterranean has been treated by a number of scholars in recent years, notably through the use of documents from the Cairo Geniza and the archives of the Italian port of Genoa. Recent research on this subject, and more specifically on contract enforcement, has focused on contract reinforcement within the Mediterranean Jewish community, largely because of the sources available. Parallels drawn with m…
Le califat méditerranéen et maritime de Denia
La désintégration du califat de Cordoue au début du XIe siècle a ouvert la porte à une nouvelle appréhension de l’espace politique et religieux islamique. Mujāhid al-‘Āmirī, souverain de la taifa de Denia sur la côte orientale, s’est lancé dans la création d’un califat ex novo sur la frontière maritime islamique. Rappelant la politique des premiers califes umayyades, Mujāhid a pensé son état en termes de jihād et d’expansion territoriale, et non …
An Intercultural Dialogue between the Muslim Taifa of Denia and the Christian County of Barcelona in the Eleventh Century
Points of dialogue increased across the Muslim–Christian Iberian frontier over the course of the eleventh century. Rulers on both sides pursued policies of active communication, through violent and pacific means. This is especially evident in the relations between Denia and Barcelona. The growing Mediterranean interests of both polities brought them into frequent contact through trade, diplomacy and conflict. In fact, the intercultural entente es…
The politics of violence and trade
In the eleventh century, as ports and cities expanded their involvement in the Mediterranean, they came into contact and conflict with one another; both were integral parts of the Mediterranean renewal after the relative decline of the early Middle Ages. Of these cities, relations between Pisa and Denia were perhaps the most exemplary of the extremes possible within the new Mediterranean. On the surface, theirs would seem to be merely a series of…
