Join us at Hartford International University for Religion and Peace for an insightful evening discussing Rev. Dr. David D. Grafton's latest book. This in-person and livestreamed event promises to be engaging and thought-provoking, shedding light on Dr. Grafton's research about how Islam was studied in American Protestant seminaries in the 19th century.

From New York University Press:

Providing an in-depth look at the information about Islam that was available in seminaries throughout the nineteenth century, Muhammad in the Seminary examines what Protestant seminaries were teaching about this tradition in the formative years of pastoral education. In charting how American Christian leaders’ ideas about Islam were shaped by their seminary experiences, this volume offers new insight into American religious history and the study of Christian-Muslim relations.
