Aprašymas

This collection of essays by seven highly respected scholars is a straightforward narrative of real world intellectual, commercial, spiritual, philosophical, scientific, esthetic creative engagement among Jews, Muslims, and some Christians in daily life in Spain and around the Mediterranean. History as Prelude is a major contribution to the Israeli-Arab peace process because it undermines in fact, blows away the efforts of propagandists who serve governments or political movements to negate the reality of the Arab-Jewish relationship in the medieval Mediterranean. The contributors, in unassuming, well-researched scholarship have erected a wall protecting historical reality from distortion, providing irrefutable and often delightful examples of creative coexistence.
