Medieval Conceptions of Friendship: Spiritual, Secular and Political
暫譯: 中世紀友誼的觀念：靈性、世俗與政治

This book brings together the scholarship on the topic of Friendship during the Medieval period. It offers an extensive review of the literature that covers discussions on friendship and sometimes love in the three Abrahamic religions - Christianity, Islam and Judaism, as well as the Secular writings. Aimed at an academic readership, it assembles and analyses the literature that is scattered across various disciplines, approaches, and fields of studies into one volume so that scholars have a useful reference to the topic of friendship relevant to one historical period. This enables an appreciation of the inter-connected influences that ushered in the Renaissance period, rather than a narrow focus that deals with particular writers, religions or cultures in isolation from each other.
