Specificatii
In a world torn by religious antagonism, lessons can be learned
from medieval Spanish villages where Muslims, Christians, and Jews
rubbed shoulders on a daily basis--sharing irrigation canals,
bathhouses, municipal ovens, and marketplaces. Medieval Spaniards
introduced Europeans to paper manufacture, Hindu-Arabic numerals,
philosophical classics, algebra, citrus fruits, cotton, and new
medical techniques. Her mystics penned classics of Kabbalah and
Sufism. More astonishing than Spain's wide-ranging accomplishments,
however, was the simple fact that until the destruction of the last
Muslim Kingdom by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella in 1492,
Spain's Muslims, Christians, and Jews often managed to bestow
tolerance and freedom of worship on the minorities in their midst.
A Vanished World chronicles this panoramic sweep of human history
and achievement, encompassing both the agony of Jihad, Crusades,
and Inquisition, and the glory of a multi-religious, multi-cultural
civilization that forever changed the West. Lowney shows how these
three controversial religious groups once lived and worked together
in Spain, creating commerce, culture, art, and architecture. He
reveals how these three faith groups eventually veered into a
thicket of resentment and violence, and shows how our current
policies and approaches might lead us down the same path. Rising
above politics, propaganda, and name-calling, A Vanished World
provides a hopeful meditation on how relations among these three
faith groups have gone wrong and some ideas on how to make their
interactions right.
