To adventure. To contemplation. To the body. To the mind. To fun. To culture. Open all year. Open to the world. Welcome The story of a name or a name for history 5TH CENTURY B.C.: the Turduli founded Elybirge. 2ND CENTURY B.C.: the Romans settled in Florentia Iliberitana. 1ST CENTURY: according to tradition, San Cecilio, the patron saint of the city, Christianised Iliberis. 7TH CENTURY: the Visigoths fortified Iliberia. 8TH CENTURY: the Arabs arrived in Ilvira. 11TH CENTURY: the Zirids moved their capital to Medina Garnata. 15TH CENTURY: Boabdil surrendered the keys of Granada to the Catholic Monarchs. Today, we still call this city GRANADA which, over its 25 century–history, has been the pride of all those who lived in it, defended it, those who lost it and those who won it. 25 centuries of inhabitants have given the city, apart from its different names, its multicultural nature, its diversity of monuments, religious and secular works of art, its roots and its sights and sounds only to be found in Granada. Iberians, Romans, Arabs, Jews and Christians have all considered this Granada to be their own, this Granada that is today the embodiment of diversity and harmonious coexistence. Since the 19th century, Granada has also been the perfect setting for those romantic travellers that had years on end free: the American Washington Irving, with his Tales of the Alhambra (1832), captivated writers, artists and musicians of his generation, telling them about that “fiercely magnificent” place that also fascinated Victor Hugo and Chateaubriand.

The first migratory movement involved the Gómez de kinship, capital. Rueda siblings who journeyed between the years of 1838 and 1858. The second migratory movement involved kinsmen from the Spanish hamlet: the Martínez-Conde siblings and the González de Collantes brother’s. Most of the immigrants built important capitals in Puebla’s pre-revolutionary history (1910-1917) and returned to Cantabria after making their fortune in the Western Hemisphere, reinvesting some of the profits by improving the hamlet whence they had departed. The article takes a micro-historical approach, which explores a group of vecino’s regional and familial network's impact on the place of departure and the destination.

  • Roma Rights Journal Examines the Impact of Conflict on Romani Populations in Modern Europe
    This issue of Roma Rights Journal examines the impact of conflict on Romani populations in modern Europe. As marginalised populations subjected to both random and very specific cruelties, Roma were viewed by warring parties with a mixture of ambivalence and contempt, and deemed to be communities of little consequence. As a consequence, ROMA RIGHTS Roma were also excluded from the peace-building processes that followed the conclusion of hostilities. JOURNAL OF THE EUROPEAN ROMA RIGHTS CENTRE In addition to situations where Roma were the direct targets of murderous aggression, or written off as collateral damage “caught between two fires”, articles in this issue also examine incidents where Roma actively took a side, and refute notions of Roma and Travellers as being “a people without politics.” The contributions in this issue address long-standing lacunae, for as long as Europe’s largest ethnic minority is rendered invisible and written out of the histories of Europe’s wars and conflicts; and excluded from the politics of reconstruction and peace-making, the continent’s self-understanding will remain fatally flawed.

  • The Granada Venegas Family, 1431-1643: Nobility, Renaissance and Morisco Identity
    The Granada Venegas Family, 1431-1643: Nobility, Renaissance and Morisco Identity By Elizabeth Ashcroft Terry A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction Of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Thomas Dandelet, Chair Professor Jonathan Sheehan Professor Ignacio E. Navarrete Summer 2015 The Granada Venegas Family, 1431-1643: Nobility, Renaissance, and Morisco Identity © 2015 by Elizabeth Ashcroft Terry All Rights Reserved The Granada Venegas Family, 1431-1643: Nobility, Renaissance and Morisco Identity By Elizabeth Ashcroft Terry Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California-Berkeley Thomas Dandelet, Chair Abstract In the Spanish city of Granada, beginning with its conquest by Ferdinand and Isabella in 1492, Christian aesthetics, briefly Gothic, and then classical were imposed on the landscape. There, the revival of classical Roman culture took place against the backdrop of Islamic civilization. The Renaissance was brought to the city by its conquerors along with Christianity and Castilian law. When Granada fell, many Muslim leaders fled to North Africa. Other elite families stayed, collaborated with the new rulers and began to promote this new classical culture. The Granada Venegas were one of the families that stayed, and participated in the Renaissance in Granada by sponsoring a group of writers and poets, and they served the crown in various military capacities. They were royal, having descended from a Sultan who had ruled Granada in 1431. Cidi Yahya Al Nayar, the heir to this family, converted to Christianity prior to the conquest. Thus he was one of the Morisco elites most respected by the conquerors.
