Resumen
El autor analiza el caso de Anselm Turmeda para reflexionar sobre las fuentes que testimonian una conversión religiosa en la época medieval. A su juicio, «Conversion narratives in medieval Iberia offer a lens through which to consider broader shifts in social and religious relations between Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Yet they are not transparent testimonies, but rather are constructed pieces of writing that shed more light on cultural and religious norms than on events in social, political, or economic history» (p. 281)
