Beskrivning
This volume challenges popular assumptions and academic pieties​ regarding religion and identity on the Iberian​ Peninsula during the Middle​ Ages. Its studies of individual works of art and architecture uncoil complex​ histories from this religiously plural peninsula, intertwining social, cultural,​ and political identities across seven centuries. Chronicling relationships​ between religious groups that were neither idyllic nor irreconcilable, these​ works of art reveal instead expressions of religious separateness balanced​ within ambivalent and dynamic shared visual identities.

Recensioner i media

[This] is a compelling intervention into both well-known and more niche examples of medieval Iberian art and architecture. Dodds’ expressed hope that her specific case studies "might set the stage for the exploration of unique and complex cultural environments, hindering a temptation to generalize the process of artistic interaction across time and space," is admirably achieved (p. xvii). Visual Histories from Medieval Iberia will stand as a model to scholars across disciplines and methodologies of the rewards that await those who dare to challenge conventional categories and who think creatively across disparate fields.
