Preámbulo a la Conversión de los Moros is the draft of a Jesuit refutation of Islam from the second half of the seventeenth century, written in the spirit of Ignatian spiritual conquest. This critical genetic edition allows readers to trace the author's sources and follow the development of his knowledge and perception of Muhammad, Islam, and Muslims—understood not only as a religious challenge but also as a political threat and a form of subversion. Though his image of Islam is largely second-hand and shaped by the history of the Moriscos, it also draws on missionary encounters with Muslim captives, which lead him to temper his polemical tone and offer a distinctive vision of a world that remained, in many respects, unknown.
Youssef El Alaoui holds a Ph.D. in Philology (1998) from the Université de Rouen Normandie and is Maître de conférences (Associate Professor) in the history of Spain and colonial Latin America (sixteenth–seventeenth centuries). His research explores the evangelization and assimilation policies directed at minority groups in early modern Spain, with particular attention to the methods developed by the Society of Jesus in its missions to Moriscos and Indigenous peoples. He also studies early modern anti-Muslim polemical literature and its role in the construction of religious and cultural alterity. Among his most significant publications are Jésuites, Morisques et Indiens (Honoré Champion, 2006), Morisques (1501–1614). Une histoire si familière (PURH, 2017), and the chapter “De la nación morisca. Evolución de su percepción en obras de refutación de los siglos XVI y XVII: de fábricas de estereotipos a guías para un mejor conocimiento del Otro" in De nación morisca, edited by Margarita M. Birriel Salcedo and Raúl Ruiz Álvarez (Editorial Universidad de Granada, 2020).
