As epoch mak­ ing in the world's history as the first volley aimed at the Minute Men of Lex­ ington and Concord, or the iron hail which fell upon Fort Sumpti-r, or any other shot ever fired in all the history of all the wars of humanity, was that iron c.annon ball which tore the left calf and broke the right leg of that young Spanish officer, 30 years of ago, on that Whit-Monday morning of the sixteenth century. For, with it went tumbling down from the lieights in mangled, bleed­ ing flesh and bone a vain, polished dandy of the Spanish court of Ferdinand and Isabella, to rise soon after a sojdicr of Clirist, enrolled now under the banner of the Naz-arene; a general of a company of Jesus; a defender of the faith against the soon-onrushing tides of the so-called Reformation; a saint of God—Ignatius of Loyola, whose feast we celebrate this morning. Indeed, the report of that shot has been beard around the earth, until even today, in the twentietli century, the (liristian world is filled with its echoes and re-eehoings. For “their sound has gone forth into all the world and their M i words unto the very end of the earth.” To recall the salient f<>atures of this romantic, majestic and saintly life is the purpose today of the celebration in this Denver manifestation of his still breath­ ing spirit. And we. do this stingy honor to his name not only because it is worthy of all such, and more, hut, and especially, for onr own personal devotion and edifi­ cation, since, as we all know, “ Ijongiim est iter per praecepta, breve ot efiicax jier cxenipla”—I.ong is the way to sanc­ tity by precept but short and effacacioiis liy example.” Or, as the Greek sages would have it: “ Precept teaches hut ex­ ample ilraws.” “Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sub­ lime. aud, departing, leave behind us footprints in the sands of time.” In the year when Ignatius—or, rather, “Enico” or “ Inigo,” as he was known in lioyhood (he having taken the name of 'Tgnatin.s” later from the 'aintly bishop of Antioch)—was born, the world needed him badly.

In a style less grave than that of history, I should perhaps compare the emperor Alexius ^1 to the jackal, who is said to follow the steps, and to devour the leavings, of the lion. Whatever had been his fears and toils in the passage of the first crusade, they were amply recompensed by the subsequent benefits which he derived from the exploits of the Franks. His dexterity and vigilance secured their first conquest of Nice; and from this threatening station the Turks were compelled to evacuate the neighborhood of Constantinople. While the crusaders, with blind valor, advanced into the midland countries of Asia, the crafty Greek improved the favorable occasion when the emirs of the sea-coast were recalled to the standard of the sultan. The Turks were driven from the Isles of Rhodes and Chios: the cities of Ephesu and Smyrna, of Sardes, Philadelphia, and Laodicea, were restored to the empire, which Alexius enlarged from the Hellespont to the banks of the Maeander, and the rocky shores of Pamphylia.

  • Analyzing the Historiography of the Iberian Reconquista (718/722–1492/1614) from Feminist and Postcolonial Perspectives
    Islamophobic Narratives of Medieval and Early Modern Iberian History? Analyzing the Historiography of the Iberian Reconquista (718/722–1492/1614) from Feminist and Postcolonial Perspectives By Pablo Monerris Galvañ Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies, Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Gender Studies with Specialization in Women’s and Gender History Supervisor: Professor Francisca de Haan, Ph.D. Second Reader: Professor Marianne Thivend, Ph.D. CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2018 Abstract This thesis analyzes the (mainly Spanish and Anglo-American) historiography that discursively constructed Muslim presence and Muslim-Christian relationships in Medieval and Early Modern Iberia (711–1614) as a parenthesis amidst Catholic political domination, territorial unity, religious orthodoxy, and ethnic exclusivity. While traditional historiography has approached the history of Medieval and Early Modern Iberia through the concept of Reconquista, since the middle of the 20th century the conceptualization of Convivencia and new theorizations in the fields of History, Postcolonial and Feminist Studies have promoted new historiographical debates on and approaches to the history of Medieval and Early Modern Iberia. Using the theories of Orientalism, Intersectionality, gendered Islamophobia, Deconstruction and Performativity, this thesis analyzes the broad and complex historiographical field about Muslims in Medieval and Early Modern Iberian history, and explores whether this historiographical body produces narratives that can be interpreted as a biased discourse. My analysis shows that the use of the concept of Reconquista has played a powerful role in constructing a nationalist and exclusionary vision of Spanish history, in which Catholic and Muslim subjects were and continue to be constructed in oppositional and hostile ways.

AN ISLAMICATE HISTORY OF THE ALCAZAR OF SEVILLE: MUDÉJAR ARCHITECTURE AND SHARED ANDALUSI CULTURE (1252-1369 CE) by JOHN F. SULLIVAN Under the Direction of Allen Fromherz, PhD ABSTRACT At the height of the Reconquista c. 1340 CE, Christian King Alfonso XI of Castile-León constructed a new throne room to commemorate his victory over Muslim forces from neighboring Granada and North Africa. The throne room called the Sala de la Justicia (Hall of Justice) was built almost entirely in the Mudéjar style, a style that looked Islamic in nature and included inscriptions in Arabic, several referencing the Qur’an, but predominantly intended for non-Muslims. The construction of this throne room in the Alcazar of Seville, a palace built by the Muslims and later used as the royal residence for the conquering Christians, has puzzled scholars due to its clearly Islamicate design being used in a new construction by a Christian ruler against a backdrop of the Crusades and the Reconquista in Spain.
