Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Art in Spain and Portugal At the beginning of the eighth century the Arabs, whose domination extended along the Mediterranean coast as far as the Pillars of Hercules, crossed the Straits of Gades, annihilated the Visigoth monarchy at Guadalete (a.d. 7l I), and invaded the Iberian peninsula. P or nearly eight hun dred years they were the masters of the whole country, or of a part of it. The arts, costume, language, literature, man ners and beliefs of the vanquished were affected by this contact. The sons of Gatho lic, Apostolic and Roman Spain came to accept to a great extent the Musulman tenets regarding marriage, and the characteristic compromise of the Koran touching the doctrines of divine prescience and free-will.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Art in Spain and Portugal It may seem strange that the art-history of Spain and Portugal should begin on Iranian ground, at the time of the Sassanids, and that the study of the primitive mosques should serve as a preface to that of the western churches. I hope, however, to show in the course of the first three chapters that Persia was not only the source of inspiration of Musulman architecture, and of the so-called Mudejar architecture of Spain (inf. pp. 123, 151), but that she played an important and well-defined part in the elaboration of those religious themes which found their way into the Asturias, Castille, and Catalonia after the expulsion of the invaders, and were acclimatised in France at a later period by the Benedictines. The West underwent a period of submersion and eclipse after the barbarian invasion. The only lights which illumined the gloom shone in Byzantium and her rival, Sassanian Persia, round which satrapates as vast and numerous as in the days of the great kings gathered. Syria, Palestine, Mesopotamia, Susiana, and Egypt were of the number. Presently the Musulman hordes of Arabia rose, and, throwing themselves in their initial ardour upon Persia and its subject provinces, took possession of them. Their barbarity was speedily modified by education in schools which had received the teaching of the metropolis.

Download or read book Art in Spain and Portugal from the Romans to the Early Middle Ages written by Rose Walker and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this colorfully illustrated book, Rose Walker surveys Spanish and Portuguese art and architecture from the time of the Roman conquest to the early twelfth century. For generations, scholarly discussions of such art have been complicated by a focus on maps of the pilgrimage roads and images of the Reconquista. Walker contextualizes these aspects by bringing together an exceptionally diverse range of academic studies, including work previously familiar only to Hispanophone audiences. By breaking down chronological, regional, and disciplinary divides that have limited scholarship on the subject for decades, this book enriches the wider English-language literature on early medieval art.
