The Battle of Lepanto, hailed as a monumental victory for Christianity over its Ottoman adversary, swiftly evolved into a captivating myth through a widespread media campaign. This book delves into the diverse narratives and numerous visual representations that shaped the perception of the battle in Christian Europe. In a broader context, Lepanto and Beyond also sheds light on the construction of religious alterity in the early modern Mediterranean. It presents cross-disciplinary case studies that examine the portrayal of Muslim captives in historical documentation, artistic depictions, and literature. With a particular focus on the Republic of Genoa, the authors aim to strike a balance between the historical scale and re-emphasize the significant role of the Genoese in the broader scholarly discourse surrounding Lepanto and its visual representations.
