The Victors and the Vanquished: Christians and Muslims of Catalonia and Aragon, 1050-1300 (Cambridge Studies in Medieval Life and Thought: Fourth Series) Book

This is a revisionary study of Muslims living under Christian rule during the Spanish 'reconquest'. It delves into the subtleties of identity in the thirteenth-century Crown of Aragon, and uncovers a social dynamic in which sectarian differences comprise only one of the many factors in the causal complex of political, economic and cultural reactions. Beginning with the final stage of independent Muslim rule in the Ebro valley region, the book traces the subtle and often surprising transformation of Islamic society into mudéjar society under Christian domination.Read More
