The literature of Al-Andalus

This volume explores the culture of Iberia from the eighth to the thirteenth century and beyond, following the Christian conquest. While the focus is on literature, the study extends to related cultures. Edited by an Arabist, Hebraist and a Romance scholar, with individual chapters by the world's leading experts, this is a truly interdiscplinary and comparative work.
