The Visual Culture of al-Andalus in the Christian Kingdoms of Iberia: Ninth to Thirteenth Centuries

Kirjastus
Taylor & Francis Ltd
This book addresses the reception of Islamic visual culture by the northern Iberian kingdoms, by systematically comparing works of art from both sides and fleshing out their historical context. The study includes figurative and iconographic motifs, architectural forms and even the spolia from constructions and Arabic inscriptions that were embedded in Christian buildings. The Islamic visual culture of al-Andalus was often transformed as it was recreated by Christian hands, bringing to the fore various nuances in the relationship between the two religious communities. Artistic transfer was conditioned by social coexistence between Christians and Muslims — both in the caliphate al-Andalus and in the northern realms — and military conflict. To approach the different ways in which Andalusi visual culture was received in the northern kingdoms, while embracing the vast diversity of case studies available, the book is divided into three thematic sections: Reinterpretation, Appropriation and Artistic Transfers. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, visual culture and medieval studies.
