In this talk Anthony discusses his recent book, "Muhammad and the Empires of Faith", which explores how critical readings of non-Muslim and Muslim sources in tandem can breathe new life into the historical study of Muhammad and how his message transformed the world.
The book argues that, by placing these sources within the intellectual and cultural world of Late Antiquity, one might offer a fresh assessment of the earliest sources for Muhammad’s life, and it also explores what new insights stand to be gained from examining anew the multilayered traditions surrounding his life.
