An integrative approach to Jewish and Muslim philosophy in al-Andalus Al-Andalus, the Iberian territory ruled by Islam from the eighth to the fifteenth centuries, was home to a flourishing philosophical culture among Muslims and the Jews who lived in their midst. Andalusians spoke proudly of the region's excellence, and indeed it engendered celebrated thinkers such as Maimonides and Averroes. Sarah Stroumsa offers an integrative new approach to Jewish and Muslim philosophy in al-Andalus, where the cultural commonality of the Islamicate world allowed scholars from diverse religious backgrounds to engage in the same philosophical pursuits. Stroumsa traces the development of philosophy in Muslim Iberia from its introduction to the region to the diverse forms it took over time, from Aristotelianism and Neoplatonism to rational theology and mystical philosophy. She sheds light on the way the politics of the day, including the struggles with the Christians to the north of the peninsula and the Fāṭimids in North Africa, influenced philosophy in al-Andalus yet affected its development among the two religious communities in different ways. While acknowledging the dissimilar social status of Muslims and members of the religious minorities, Andalus and Sefarad highlights the common ground that united philosophers, providing new perspective on the development of philosophy in Islamic Spain.

To Christians the Iberian Peninsula was Hispania, to Muslims al-Andalus, and to Jews Sefarad. As much as these were all names given to the same real place, the names also constituted ideas, and like all ideas, they have histories of their own. To some, al-Andalus and Sefarad were the subjects of conventional expressions of attachment to and pride in homeland of the universal sort displayed in other Islamic lands and Jewish communities; but other Muslim and Jewish political, literary, and religious actors variously developed the notion that al-Andalus or Sefarad, its inhabitants, and their culture were exceptional and destined to play a central role in the history of their peoples. In Iberian Moorings Ross Brann traces how al-Andalus and Sefarad were invested with special political, cultural, and historical significance across the Middle Ages. This is the first work to analyze the tropes of Andalusi and Sefardi exceptionalism in comparative perspective. Brann focuses on the social power of these tropes in Andalusi Islamic and Sefardi Jewish cultures from the tenth through the twelfth century and reflects on their enduring influence and its expressions in scholarship, literature, and film down to the present day.

1492 fue un año para no olvidar. Jamás lo olvidaron los devotos de dos de las tres religiones con que contaba la península ibérica en aquel momento. Aún hoy, entre sus descendientes, las palabras Sefarad y al-Ándalus hacen temblar sus labios y en su lengua se agolpan los ecos de oraciones lejanas. La decisión de los Reyes Católicos de expulsar a los judíos españoles y culminar el proceso de la Reconquista arrojando fuera de la península a los musulmanes aún tuvo continuidad en los siglos siguientes con la persecución a los judíos conversos y a los moriscos. La España expulsada dejaba tras de sí la huella imperecedera de extraordinarias personalidades cuyo ingenio alcanzó cimas inexpugnables hasta entonces en los más variados campos del saber. Personalidades como Maimónides, Hasday ibn Saprut , Moisés de León, Averroes o Ibn Arabi, son solo algunos nombres de la larga lista posible de espíritus universales que siempre formarán parte de la historia de España. La convivencia de tres religiones es uno de los rasgos definitorios de la edad media española. Y aunque aquella convivencia cultural y religiosa no fue siempre idílica, el roce continuo provocó influencias mutuas, hasta el punto de que el judaísmo y el Islam no fueron iguales tras su paso por la península, ni la España naciente podrá ser entendida sin la herencia de los dioses expulsados.

This stimulating and graceful book explores Iberian Jewish attitudes toward cultural transition during the 12th and 13th centuries, when growing intolerance toward Jews in Islamic al-Andalus and the southward expansion of the Christian Reconquista led to the relocation of Jews from Islamic to Christian domains. By engaging literary topics such as imagery, structure, voice, landscape, and geography, Jonathan P. Decter traces attitudes toward transition that range from tenacious longing for the Islamic past to comfort in the Christian environment. Through comparison with Arabic and European vernacular literatures, Decter elucidates a medieval Hebrew poetics of estrangement and nostalgia, poetic responses to catastrophe, and the refraction of social issues in fictional narratives. Published with the generous support of the Koret Foundation.
