Download or read book Geograf a de la Espa a morisca written by Henry Lapeyre and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2011-11-28 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquesta obra clàssica que ara es reedita s'emmarca en la història econòmica i social de l'escola dels Annals. Lapeyre creia que tot estava dit sobre els aspectes polítics i religiosos de la qüestió morisca i que els aspectes geogràfics i demogràfics seguien sent desconeguts. Aborda el problema des del punt de vista estadístic, des de la perspectiva de la història quantitativa, i es basa en les enquestes molt precises de l'administració dels Àustries. Demografia, geografia, xifres, mapes són les quatre paraules clau. Avui, en una època en la qual els historiadors refusen qualsevol quantitativisme, la tornada a un text com el d'Henri Lapeyre és particularment sana i profitosa. Ens ensenya com un treball meticulós, basat en xifres i mapes, estableix les indispensables fundacions de l'edifici morisc.

Download or read book The Earth as Transformed by Human Action written by B. L. Turner and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-01-29 with total page 740 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Earth as Transformed by Human Action is the culmination of a mammoth undertaking involving the examination of the toll our continual strides forward, technical and social, take on our world. The purpose of such a study is to document the changes in the biosphere that have taken place over the last 300 years, to contrast global patterns of change to those appearing on a regional level, and to explain the major human forces that have driven these changes. The first section deals strictly with the major human forces of the past 300 years and the second is a detailed account of the transformations of the global environment wrought by human action. The final section examines a range of perspectives and theories that purport to explain human actions with regard to the biosphere.
Download or read book Islam Under the Crusaders written by Robert Ignatius Burns and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The struggle between Islam and the Crusaders comprised a dialogue of cultures on a broad geographic scale and a wide expanse of time, a perennial seesaw of conquest in the West as in the East. Father Burns' pioneering work on Valencia has demonstrated that the inner reality of this sustained confrontation lies as much in the colonial interims as in the battles.

Download or read book Geometridae Ibericae written by Victor M. Redondo and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-01-21 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the whole of Geometrid moths fauna of mainland Spain and Portugal including the Balearic Islands (Mallorca, Menorca and Ibiza). In the systematic part, the text for each species is divided into the following paragraphs: Wingspan; Diagnosis; Biology; Distribution; Comments. The photographed colour plates illustrate all species apart from a very few where it has not been possible to obtain material. Most species are illustrated in several specimens. The genitalia illustrations are line drawings and cover the species where the genitalias may be useful for the identification. The book is the first ever to cover the entire Iberian Geometrid fauna. It is a big step forward and a fine supplement to The Geometrid Moths of Europe, both for those with a special interest in Iberian Geometridae as for those with a more general interest in European species. The text is fully bilingual Spanish-English.

Download or read book Negotiating Cultures written by William C.G. Burns and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-07-04 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James I "the Conqueror", king of Arago-Catalonia, conquered Mediterranean Spain from Islam during fifty crusading years (1225-1276). From his many surrender treaties, only two survive in their interlinear bilingual originals, both presented here. Each reflects the fragmentation of post-Almohad Islam, the warrior heroes of Islam carving recalcitrant principalities out of the confusion, the hard-fought local negotiations and the confrontation between two radically opposed mentalities. The full meaning of these battered and deteriorated bits of parchment emerges only from minute reconstruction of the Arabic and Latinate texts and especially from ever-widening circles of changing contexts in each world, an historical kaleidoscope. Many surprises here await students of medieval Europe, the Islamic West, Spain, the Crusades, diplomacy, Mudejars/Moriscos, and cultural conflict and interchange.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These two volumes present a conspectus of current research on the history and culture of early medieval Spain and Portugal, from the time of the Arab conquest in 711 up to the fall of the caliphate. They trace the impact of Islamisation on the pre-existing Roman and Visigothic political and social structures, the continuing interaction between Christian and Muslim, and describe the particular development and characteristics of Muslim Spain- al-Andalus. Together, they comprise 38 articles, of which 32 have been translated into English specially for this publication. The first volume focuses on political and social history, and looks in detail at settlement patterns and urbanisation; the second examines questions of language and covers the brilliant cultural and intellectual history of the period.
