Abstract
It behoves an academic Society like ours to make some contribution to the deepening of historical understanding of toleration and dialogue, based on research into the religious and cultural tensions of the medieval and early modern periods. Accordingly, the Society devoted its 19th Biennial Conference, held at Stellenbosch in September 2008, to the theme Dialogue, Exchange and Confrontation: Religious Toleration, Multiculturalism and the “Other�?, inviting delegates to share their expertise on such topics as persecution, trans-nationalism and artistic commerce.
