5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent look into early Judeo-Islamic relations, November 19, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Power in the Portrayal: Representations of Jews and Muslims in Eleventh- and Twelfth-Century Islamic Spain. (Hardcover)
This scholarly work by Ross Brann is well-researched look into the relations between Jews and Muslims in Muslim ruled al-Andalus (Spain) in the Middle Ages. He looks at and tries to reconcile a Muslim ruled world in which Jews were both persecuted and rose to the greatest heights of government, literature, and philosophy, such as Samuel the Nagrid (Isma'il ibn Naghrila). This book is highly recommened for research or those very interested in the field, but while it is with out doubt well-written, it is not a light read for someone who is not familiar with at least Jewish History or Muslim Spain to a small degree.
