|---|---|
| Description: | This volume challenges popular assumptions and academic pieties regarding religion and identity on the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages. Its studies of individual works of art and architecture uncoil complex histories from this religiously plural peninsula, intertwining social, cultural, and political identities across seven centuries. Chronicling relationships between religious groups that were neither idyllic nor irreconcilable, these works of art reveal instead expressions of religious separateness balanced within ambivalent and dynamic shared visual identities. |
