In 1453, the Western Christian world was shocked by the fall of Constantinople. While a lot of theologians and leaders of the Latin church focused on a military answer to the threat of Islam, some theologians of the Council of Basel developed non-violent ideas and conceptions how to face Islam. Among those scholars, John of Segovia (d. 1458), a friend of Council fellow Nicolas of Cusa (d. 1464), is one of the most important. He clearly saw the necessity of an adequate theological and intellectual and not military answer to Islam. He wrote three major works on this subject in form of letters or treatises which are often discussed in publications. But besides of these texts, he also wrote a series of smaller texts. He planned them to be a part of the corpus of texts with which he tried to influence important leaders and decision-makers in Rome and Burgundy. Until now, only some of them are edited and all of them are not translated from Latin. Despite of their quality and inner systematic value they are hardly read or taken into account when writing on the Western way of facing Islam in the 15th century. These smaller texts and fragments are:I. Errores legis MahumetiII. Allegationes de peccatis primi parentisIII. XVI Scholastica documentaIV. De spiratione activaV. Praefatio in translationem secundamVI. Fragmenta translationis AlkoraniVII. Epistola ad Guillielmum de Orliaco.While the texts I.–VI. aim at Islam in a direct or indirect way, text VII. reveals the spiritual and Christological background for John of Segovia’s engagement at that time. Together with others the applicant has edited the texts I., II., and VI. In the new project „Opera minora“ all texts I.–VI. will be edited, translated, commented, interpreted, and published together according to their context. This edition will be published in the series Corpus Islamo-Christianum, where the applicant has published John of Segovia’s major work "De gladio divini spiritus".The applicant will work together with Dr. Jesse D. Mann (Drew University, Madison, New Jersey) who has agreed to contribute text VII. with an English translation.

1453年，西方基督教世界对君士坦丁堡的沦陷感到震惊。尽管拉丁教会的许多神学家和领导人都集中于对伊斯兰威胁的军事回答，但巴塞尔委员会的一些神学家发展了非暴力的思想和概念，如何面对伊斯兰教。在这些学者中，塞戈维亚的约翰（卒于1458年）是库萨市议会研究员的朋友（卒于1464年），是最重要的之一。他清楚地看到了充分的神学和知识分子的必要条件，而不是对伊斯兰教的军事回答。他以字母或待遇的形式写了三本关于此主题的主要作品，这些作品经常在出版物中进行讨论。但是除了这些文本之外，他还写了一系列较小的文本。他计划成为他试图影响罗马和勃艮第的重要领导者和决策者的文本语料库的一部分。到目前为止，只有其中一些是编辑的，所有这些都没有从拉丁语中翻译。尽管具有其质量和内在的系统价值，但在15世纪以西方面对伊斯兰教的方式写作时，它们几乎没有考虑到它们。这些较小的文本和片段是：i。错误feyis mahumetiii。 peccatis primi parentisiii的指控。 XVI Scholastica Documentaiv。 De Spirite Activav。 praefatio in translationem secundamvi。 fragmenta翻译碱。 Epistola ad Guillielmum de Orliaco。以直接或间接的方式瞄准伊斯兰教，文字VII。揭示了当时塞戈维亚订婚的约翰的精神和基督教背景。与他人一起，适用的编辑了文本I.，ii。和vi。在新的项目“ Minora”项目中，所有文本I. – Vi.将根据他们的上下文进行编辑，翻译，评论，解释和出版。该版本将发表在系列伊斯兰教 - 基督教徒的系列中，该系列的申请已发表在塞戈维亚的主要作品《德格里奥·德维尼精神》（De Gladio Divini Spiritus）的约翰。该应用程序将与杰西·D·曼恩（Jesse D.带英文翻译。
