There have been endless debates from a philosophical and a theological point of view around the theme, whether Judaism, Christianity and Islam form what we call the so-called Judeo-Christian or Abrahamic tradition and whether these religions are basically interpretations of the one and the same thing. Recent studies in the field of imagology through Renaissance sources on the cultural, civilisational and political aspects of historical “image formations” have shed light on aspects of history hitherto remained taken for granted in the conflictual relations between the Ottomans and the Europeans. The images here in question are not one merely thinks of something or a person, rather the partially deliberate and partially culturally formed ideas and mental attitudes towards a set of ideas represented by a religion or a group of people.
