520 |a "This book records the 781 A.D. "dialogue without resolution" between the third Abbasid Caliph, al-Mahdi, and Timothy I, the first Nestorian Patriarch in Baghdad. It deals with perennial questions of faith and creed that are as alive today as they were in the eighth century. The collated text presented here is of an abridged sixteenth century Arabic version based on Timothy I's Syriac original. The abundance of various versions of this debate between the patriarch and the caliph is a testimony to its historic importance. It is remarkable both for its intellectual richness and for the courtesy it displays on the part of both interlocutors"-- 
520 |a "The Patriarch and the Caliph presents the famous "dialogue without resolution" between the third Abbasid Caliph, al-Mahdi, and the first Nestorian Patriarch, Timothy I, in Baghdad in 781 CE. The abundance of versions of this intellectually rich debate between adherents of Islam and of Christianity is a testimony to its historic importance. Of particular note is the mutual respect shown between the interlocutors in a period when Islam was the dominant political and intellectual influence in the Middle Eastern and Mediterranean worlds. This volume collates an abridged sixteenth-century Arabic version based on Timothy I's Syriac original. Parallel English translations accompany the Arabic. Including annotations, indexes, glossaries, and bibliographies to further assist the reader, The Patriarch and the Caliph reveals important insights into the complex relationship between two historical figures, and through them, two major world religions"--
