520 |a The article argues that Juan Luis Vives's (1492/1493-1540) conceptualization of Islam in De veritate fidei Christianae can be placed inside the Erasmian paradigm of toleration of error. De veritate presents a fictional dialogue between a Christian and a Muslim in which the flaws of Islam are systematically traced back to the unethical nature of Muhammad. In describing the initial failure of Muhammad to grasp universal law, Vives equates the Muslim prophet with a failed legislator or a tyrant. Vives's strategy does not save Islam but it portrays the Muslim interlocutor as a victim of an error. In the dialogue the Muslim appears as a man of good judgment, he is adopted into the sphere of dialogue but only in order to overcome his error.
