Описание: This volume interrogates the assumption that Visigothic practices and institutions were mere imitations of the Byzantine empire. Contributors rethink these practices not as uncritical and derivative adoptions of Byzantine customs, but as dynamic processes in dialogue with not only the Byzantine empire but also with the contemporary Iberian context, as well as the Roman past. The goal of the volume is to approach Visigothic customs not as an uncritical adoption and imitatio of contemporary Roman models (an "acculturation" model), but as unique interpretations of a common pool of symbols, practices, and institutions that formed the legacy of Rome. The contributors argue that it is necessary to reconsider the idea of imitatio imperii as a process that involved specific actors taking strategic decisions in historically contingent circumstances.
Some of the most outstanding examples of world architecture, such as the Mosque of C rdoba, the ceiling of the Cappella Palatina in Palermo, the Giralda tower in Seville, and the Alhambra Palace in Granada, belong to the Western Islamic tradition. This architectural style flourished for over a thousand years along the southern and western shores of the Mediterranean--between Tunisia and Spain--from the 8th century through the 19th, blending new ideas with local building practices from across the region.
Jonathan M. Bloom's Architecture of the Islamic West introduces readers to the full scope of this vibrant tradition, presenting both famous and little-known buildings in six countries in North Africa and southern Europe. It is richly illustrated with photographs, specially commissioned architectural plans, and historical documents. The result is a personally guided tour of Islamic architecture led by one of the finest scholars in the field and a powerful testament to Muslim cultural achievement.

Описание: The replacement of the Roman Empire in the West with emerging kingdoms like Visigothic Spain and Merovingian Gaul resulted in new societies, but without major population displacement. Societies changed because identities shifted and new points of cohesion formed under different leaders and leadership structures. This volume examines two kingdoms in the post-Roman west to understand how this process took shape. Though exhibiting striking continuities with the Roman past, Gaul and Spain emerged as distinctive, but not isolated, political entities that forged different strategies and drew upon different resources to strengthen their unity, shape social ties, and consolidate their political status.

Описание: El interes por el Arturo de Bretana continua mas vivo que nunca entre los lectores y los estudiosos contemporaneos. La riquisima bibliografia en ingles o en frances asi lo demuestra. Sin embargo, la suerte del cultivo de las leyendas de Camelot y de la Tabla Redonda no es del todo conocida en las tierras de Andorra, Portugal, Espana o Iberoamerica. De ahi surge este novedoso volumen dedicado en su totalidad al Arturo de Iberia de todos los tiempos. Su vision, por lo tanto, es global y cronologica, en otras palabras, se busca ofrecer una vision multisecular, desde la Edad Media hasta el tercer milenio, de los derroteros por los cuales se ha diseminado la aficion arturica en la peninsula iberica y en las naciones con ella emparentadas. Ademas, el enfoque de este volumen es multilinguistico, al recogerse estudios de todas las lenguas de Iberia, asi como capitulos escritos en una buena representacion de las mismas, en concreto, portugues, espanol, catalan y gallego. El ingles, el frances, el gales y el italiano, como lenguas de traduccion o de estudio, tambien adornan las paginas de De Britania a Britonia.
