<p>Dear all,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><i>With apologies for cross-listing</i>:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I am looking for references regarding the *authorship* of medieval religious polemics, especially those in which the narrator might be a literary invention. To give an example: the
<i>Epistola Samuelis</i>, or the <i>Epistle of Rabbi Samuel of Morocco</i>, was allegedly translated from Arabic into Latin, and is attributed to one Rabbi Samuel, but is considered, at least by most opinions, to be the original work of Alfonso Buenhombre (d.
c. 1353).<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The references should not be necessarily limited to Spain and the Maghreb.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Please contact me off-list.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thank you,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Liran<br>
