      abstract = {This book offers a comparative study of emotion in Arabic  Islamic and English Christian contemplative texts, c.  1110-1250, contributing to the emerging interest in  globalization in medieval studies. A.S. Lazikani argues for  the necessity of placing medieval English devotional texts  in a more global context and seeks to modify influential  narratives on the history of emotions to enable this more  wide-ranging critical outlook. Across eight chapters, the  book examines the dialogic encounters generated by  comparative readings of Muhyddin Ibn Arabi (1165-1240),  Umar Ibn al-Farid (1181-1235), Abu al-Hasan al-Shushtari  (d. 1269), Ancrene Wisse (c. 1225), and the Wooing Group  (c. 1225). Investigating the two-fold paradigms of love in  the figure of Jesus and in the image of the heart, the  (dis)embodied language of affect, and the affective  semiotics of absence and secrecy, Lazikani demonstrates an  interconnection between the religious traditions of early  Christianity and Islam.},
