The Feeling of History: Islam, Romanticism, and Andalusia By Charles Hirschkind
This is a curious book. It appears at times not so much as a work of scholarly history and more as a manifesto of some sort of intellectual gnosticism. The author begins: Muslim Iberia did not disappear from history with the seizure of Granada in 1492 by Christian armies, as our history books have it. Rather, forced into hiding, it continued on as an invisible warp within the fabric of Spanish society. The medieval realm of al-Andalus and contemp…

The Almoravid and Almohad Empires, by Amira K. Bennison
The Almoravids and Almohads have long been a problem in the Anglo-European historiography of al-Andalus (Islamic Spain) and the Muslim West. Their characterisation as fanatics, fundamentalists, puritans and even ‘Taliban’ is symptomatic of an anti-Berber bias that originates in contemporary Arabic Andalusi sources and has been uncritically assimilated by historians since the nineteenth century. Many of these have romanticised the era of the Umayy…
Interfaith Dialogue and Disputation in the Medieval Mediterranean
The Mediterranean world in the Middle Ages was a zone of multiple and overlapping identities. In this zone of competing principalities and elites, various groups identified with a particular doctrinal ideology (what we will call "ecumenian"). However, this was also a zone that was characterized by the interpenetration of religious and ethnic communities. Muslims, Jews, and Christians of various denominations and orientations lived amongst each ot…

Accursed, Superior Men: Ethno-Religious Minorities and Politics in the Medieval Mediterranean
One of the most salient features of the medieval Mediterranean is that it was a zone of intense interaction and long-term cohabitation of members of various ethno-religious communities whose relations are usually conceived of as fundamentally adversarial. Yet Christians, Muslims, and Jews lived amongst each other in both the Christian- and Muslim-ruled Mediterranean, even during the era of the crusades. Typically, such relationships have been pre…

Justicia recta o Justicia subvertida? Dos mujeres musulmanas demandan a un oficial local mudéjar en el siglo XIV aragonés
En Daroca, en 1300, dos mujeres mudéjares demandaron a un oficial de su aljama, alegando que, sin ningún derecho, las había desahuciado de sus casas y maltratado. En el juicio, varios testigos corroboraron sus afirmaciones, pero el acusado, alegó que no eran fiables. Sin embargo, el magistrado rechazo esta defensa, y declaró culpable al oficial musulmán, puniéndole de manera ejemplar. Lo que, a primera vista, parece un caso obvio de abuso de pode…
