Download or read book The Moor s Last Stand written by Elizabeth Drayson and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2017-04-20 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1482, Abu Abdallah Muhammad XI became the twenty-third Muslim King of Granada. He would be the last. This is the first history of the ruler, known as Boabdil, whose disastrous reign and bitter defeat brought seven centuries of Moorish Spain to an end. It is an action-packed story of intrigue, treachery, cruelty, cunning, courtliness, bravery and tragedy. Basing her vivid account on original documents and sources, Elizabeth Drayson traces the origins and development of Islamic Spain. She describes the thirteenth-century founding of the Nasrid dynasty, the cultured and stable society it created, and the feuding which threatened it and had all but destroyed it by 1482, when Boabdil seized the throne. The new Sultan faced betrayals by his family, factions in the Alhambra palace, and ever more powerful onslaughts from the forces of Ferdinand and Isabella, monarchs of the newly united kingdoms of Castile and Aragon. By stratagem, diplomacy, courage and strength of will Boabdil prolonged his reign for ten years, but he never had much chance of survival. In 1492 Ferdinand and Isabella, magnificently attired in Moorish costume, entered Granada and took possession of the city. Boabdil went into exile. The Christian reconquest of Spain, that has reverberated so powerfully down the centuries, was complete.

Book Blood and Faith

    Book Details:
  • Author : Matthew Carr
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2017-02-17
  • ISBN : 1787384357
  • Pages : 442 pages

Download or read book Blood and Faith written by Matthew Carr and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-02-17 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1609, the entire Muslim population of Spain was given three days to leave Spanish territory or else be killed. In a brutal and traumatic exodus, entire families were forced to abandon the homes and villages where they had lived for generations. In just five years, Muslim Spain had effectively ceased to exist: an estimated 300,000 Muslims had been removed from Spanish territory making it what was then the largest act of ethnic cleansing in European history. Blood and Faith is a riveting chronicle of this virtually unknown episode, set against the vivid historical backdrop of Muslim Spain. It offers a remarkable window onto a little-known period in modern Europe - a rich and complex tale of competing faiths and beliefs, of cultural oppression and resistance against overwhelming odds.

Book History of the Moors of Spain

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jean-Pierre de Florian
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2018-08-07
  • ISBN : 9781724867339
  • Pages : 128 pages

Download or read book History of the Moors of Spain written by Jean-Pierre de Florian and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As set out in Jean-Pierre Claris de Florian's 1841 book "History of the Moors of Spain" the primitive Moors were originally the inhabitants of the vast portion of Africa bounded on the east by Egypt, on the north by the Mediterranean, on the west by the Atlantic, and on the south by the deserts of Barbary. The origin of the Moors, or Mauritanians, is, like that of most other ancient nations, obscure, and the information we possess concerning their early history confusedly mingled with fables. The fact, however, appears to be established, that Asiatic emigrations were, from the earliest times, made into Africa. In discussing the history of the Moors in Spain Florian divides his historical sketch in four principal Epochs. The first extends from the commencement of the Conquests of the Arabs to the Establishment of the Dynasty of the Ommiade princes at Cordova. The second includes the reigns of the Caliphs of the West. The third relates all that can now be ascertained concerning the various small kingdoms erected from the ruins of the Caliphate of Cordova. The fourth comprehends a narration of the prominent events in the lives of the successive sovereigns of the Kingdom of Grenada, until the period of the final expulsion of the Moslem from that country.Jean-Pierre Claris de Florian (1755 - 1794) was a poet, romance writer, and author of historical works. Florian was very fond of Spain and its literature, doubtless owing to the influence of his Castilian mother, and both abridged and imitated the works of Cervantes.

Book Muslims in Spain  1492 1814

Download or read book Muslims in Spain 1492 1814 written by Eloy Martín-Corrales and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Muslims in Spain, 1492-1814: Living and Negotiating in the Land of the Infidel, Eloy Martín-Corrales surveys Hispano-Muslim relations from the late fifteenth to the eighteenth centuries, a period of chronic hostilities. Nonetheless there were thousands of Muslims in Spain at that time: ambassadors, exiles, merchants, converts, and travelers. Their negotiating strategies, and the necessary support they found on both shores of the Mediterranean prove that relations between Spaniards and Muslims were based on reasons of state and on a pragmatism that generated intense political and economic ties.These increased enormously after the peace treaties that Spain signed with Muslim countries between 1767 and 1791.
