Download The Myth of the Andalusian Paradise: Muslims, Christians, and Jews Under Islamic Rule in Medieval Spain AudioBook Free
Scholars, journalists, and politicians uphold Muslim-ruled middle ages Spain - "al-Andalus" - as a multicultural heaven, a location where Muslims, Christians, and Jews resided in harmony. There is merely one problem with this broadly accepted accounts: It really is a myth. In this particular groundbreaking e book, Northwestern School scholar Darío Fernández-Morera explains to the full storyline of Islamic Spain. The Myth of the Andalusian Heaven shines light on invisible top features of this middle ages culture by drawing on an abundance of primary sources that scholars have overlooked, as well as archaeological facts only recently unearthed. As professors, politicians, and pundits continue to enjoy Islamic Spain for its "multiculturalism" and "diversity", Fernández-Morera sets the record upright - showing a politically useful misconception is a misconception nonetheless.
