The Moslim Saint in Toledo Cathedral By: Angus Macnab
The Moslim Saint in Toledo Cathedral By: Angus Macnab Studies in Comparative Religion, Vol. 2, No. 2. (Spring, 1968) © World Wisdom, Inc. www.studiesincomparativereligion.com THE main chapel of Toledo Cathedral has one curious feature which is sometimes allowed to pass unnoticed, though it must surely be unique among Christian churches. Amid the effigies of saints, holy bishops, abbots, and Christian monarchs—defenders of the faith—there stands a fine polychrome statue of an Islamic doctor of theology. This cathedral was not begun until the early thirteenth century; but the memory of the saintly Mussulman was still held in such regard at Toledo a century and a half after the reconquest of the city from the Arabs, that his image was set up in one of the two most prominent positions of honour. These two conspicuous sites are the two pillars which, with the two others beside the twin pulpits, sustain the vault of the main chapel. The one on the Gospel side has a statue of the mysterious Shepherd of Las Navas—thought by some to have been an apparition of St. Isidore the Farm-Hand, Patron of Madrid—who showed King Alfonso the Good the secret mountain pass that enabled the Christian army to win the decisive victory of the Reconquest at Navas de Tolosa in 1212, and who vanished after showing the path to the leaders; the statue is said to have been made from a rough sketch drawn by the king himself. And in the corresponding position on the Epistle-side pillar stands the Moslem who won the great victory of renunciation and peace. -

Sovereignty, Religion and Violence in the Medieval Crown of Aragon
Published on Reviews in History (https://reviews.history.ac.uk) The Mercenary Mediterranean: Sovereignty, Religion and Violence in the Medieval Crown of Aragon Review Number: 2079 Publish date: Thursday, 9 March, 2017 Author: Hussein Fancy ISBN: 9780226329642 Date of Publication: 2016 Price: £26.89 Pages: 296pp. Publisher: Uinveristy of Chicago Press Publisher url: http://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/M/bo22776804.html Place of Publication: Chicago, IL Reviewer: Robin Vose Why would a hardened band of foreign jih?di warriors agree to work for a self-proclaimed leader of the Christian world – especially one militantly opposed to Islam, who kept his own Muslim citizens under close surveillance? And why would such a ruler choose to keep that particular type of professional killer in his personal employ? These are not just questions you might expect to see aired by conspiracy theorists in modern tabloid media. They also arise from Hussein Fancy’s meticulous investigation of real episodes in the history of the Crown of Aragon – an important collection of Christian (and frequently crusading) polities that ruled over eastern Spain and other parts of the Mediterranean basin in the later Middle Ages. The apparently contradictory nature of such unlikely instances of interreligious military cooperation serves as his stepping-off point for a fascinating, compelling, and at times provocative study of how political power, religious identity, and the complexities of interfaith relations actually shaped a period which has since become renowned for its bewilderingly intertwined legacies of both violence and coexistence. It is always a pleasant surprise when a serious work of historical research also makes for a stimulating read, as is the case with this book. -

Jewish Averroists Between Two Expulsions (1306-1492): from Conflict to Reconciliation
JEWISH AVERROISTS BETWEEN TWO EXPULSIONS (1306-1492): FROM CONFLICT TO RECONCILIATION Basem Mahmud Freie Universität Berlin ABSTRACT This article investigates the intellectual production of Jewish authors influenced by Averroes in the 14th and 15th Centuries in northern Spain and southern France. The primary objective is to determine the main features of Jewish Averroism in this period, and to understand it within its socio-historical context. The outcomes suggest that there was a relationship between the new social and political trends toward democratization and reconciliation in the heart of Jewish communities on one hand, and the growing interest in Averroes’ original works on the other. Original here means the works that are not commentaries or summaries of other works. Key words: Aristotelianism, Averroes, Averroism, Jewish philosophy, Kabbalah, Maimonides, Scripture. INTRODUCTION «There is nothing worse in social government than a policy that makes one single society into several, just as there is no greater good in communities than a policy that joins and unifies» (Averroes)1 The 14th Century was a very difficult time for Jewish communities in northern Spain and southern France, they faced great threats from outside as well as significant domestic division. The domestic conflict emerged not only because of religious and philosophical issues, but also due to economic and social matters related to the distribution of wealth and power within Jewish communities.2 In addition, these communities lived in delicate conditions due to threats from the Christians. This situation also had an effect on demographics. Since the last years of 13th Century, the Jewish community started to encounter sizeable obstacles in its demographic development.3 Under these conditions, Hebraic Averroism continued its development which had begun in XIII century. -
The Tubal Figure in Early Modern Iberian Historiography, 16Th and 17Th Century
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Revistes Catalanes amb Accés Obert THE TUBAL FIGURE IN EARLY MODERN IBERIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY, 16TH AND 17TH CENTURY MATTHIAS GLOËL UNIVERSIDAD CATÓLICA DE TEMUCO CHILE Date of receipt: 16th of May, 2016 Final date of acceptance: 13th of September, 2016 ABSTRACT This study is dedicated to the use of the biblical figure Tubal in early modern Iberian chronicles. The focus will be centered on how it is used in different ways in the different kingdoms (Castile, Aragon, Catalonia, Valencia, Portugal and the Basque Provinces and Navarre) and what the authors are trying to achieve through this. Results show that while Castilian authors try to prove Spanish antiquity with the Tubal settlement, in other kingdom, especially in Catalonia, Portugal and Navarre there is a more regional use of the myth. Most of these authors try to prove that their own kingdom is the territory where Tubal settled, which would give a pre-eminence of antiquity to it in comparison to the other Iberian territories.

Introduction Myths have always played an outstanding part in human history and they are without any doubt much older than science. This is also valid for chronicles or historiographical works. Christian historians in particular broke up the division between myth and history, which had been established by classical historiography.1 Only pagan stories remained myths, while the Bible gained the recognition of true history.2 Early Modern chronicles from the Iberian Peninsula are no exception to this phenomenon. -

CRONICA DEL LUGAR DE CAMPILLO DE ARAGON DE LA RELIGION DEL SEÑOR SAN JUAN DE JERUSALEM DESDE EL AÑO 1581 Y SEGUN SU ARCHIVO PARROQUIAL Por Ladislao Pérez Fuentes CAMPILLO de Aragón es un pequeño pueblo situado a 14 kilómetros del Monasterio de Piedra. Es la última avanzadilla de Aragón hacia Castilla. Pertenece al partido judicial de Ateca, y su término municipal limita con los de Calmarza, Jaraba, Ibdes, Llumes (Monterde), Cimballa, Fuentelsaz y Milmarcos, ya en la provincia de Guadalajara. Es una tierra árida y sobria, igual que sus gentes, que se confunden con ella y en ella cultivan cereales y apacientan los rebaños, principales fuentes de riqueza del pueblo. Es una tierra dura y fuerte que, durante el verano, con sus trigos dorados y los cuervos clavados en lo alto, recuerda algún paisaje de Van Gogh. Contraria en todo al Aragón de vega que la rodea, no por ello es menos Aragón, ni sus gentes se sienten menos aragonesas que las de la ribera. En esta tierra, en este pueblo, se establecieron en tiempos que no hemos podido determinar, los caballeros sanjuanistas, los cuales poseyeron parte de las tierras, y bajo su tutela estuvo el pueblo y fue regida su iglesia, durante varios siglos. El archivo parroquial, del cual nos hemos servido para hacer esta crónica, comienza en el año 1581, y ya es un sacerdote de la Religión de San Juan, Fray Jaime Ruiz, prior, natural de Encinacorba, el que con las palabras "Ini tium sapientiae est timor domini", comienza el 4 de junio del dicho 1581 los "quinque libris" del primer tomo de este archivo. -

Emblemata. 2. Pp. 225-237 UN DOCUMENTO GENEALÓGICO DEL SIGLO XVIII PARA EL ESTUDIO DE LA NOBLEZA ARAGONESA ENCARNA JARQUE* JOSÉ ANTONIO SALAS" El objetivo del presente trabajo de momento no es otro que la presentación de un interesante manuscrito conservado en la Biblioteca Capitular de La Seo de Zaragoza.1 En él se contiene información de carácter genealógico extraída preferentemente de los fondos documentales de la Real Audiencia. Su autor fue Inocencio Camón, nacido en la capital aragonesa en 1726. Licenciado en leyes en la universidad de Zaragoza el año 1751, es conocido como autor de la primera obra impresa sobre esta institución académica, titulada Plan que presenta el estado actual de la Universidad Literaria de Zaragoza, Zaragoza, 1768, y de unas Memorias Literarias de Zaragoza, 2 vols., Zaragoza, 1768 y 1769. Ya en esas fechas simultaneaba sus tareas docentes en la universidad zaragozana con el puesto de relator sustituto en la sala de lo civil de la Real Audiencia, 2 condición que seguía manteniendo mientras escribía el manuscrito objeto de nuestro estudio.3 Su carrera docente en la universidad queda resumida en una obra inédita del propio Camón conservada en la Biblioteca Universitaria de Zaragoza, en la que señala la obtención de su primera cátedra, de Código, que desempeña desde 1770 hasta 1780, año en el que obtiene la de Vísperas de Leyes, continuando como docente al menos hasta 1786.4 El 6 de agosto de 1793, a la edad de 67 años, Inocencio Camón fallecía en Zaragoza. * Departamento de Historia Moderna y Contemporánea.
