Descrizione

SUMMARY: The examination of the charge of idolatry against the Saracens of George the Monk is divided into the discussion of the following points: (1) to trace some themes belonging to the classical literary tradition concerning Arabs and Saracens, still present in George the Monk; (2) to show the relationships among astrolatry, pre-Islamic deities and Islamic monotheism; (3) to show the change and the adaptation to the Greek language of some Arab terms; (4) to highlight the different characteristics of the charges of idolatry by John of Damascus and George the Monk to the Saracens; (5) to identify the Arabic deity hidden in the Greek name.
