"Review excerpt from the German edition: "This well-written study is based on an extensive collection of sources and literature. It fills an important gap in the scholarship by combining multiple fields and approaches of cultural history to offer new insights into the process of nation-building on a variety of levels." -- Hedwig Herold-Schmidt, Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena, in H-Soz-u-Kult (2013)"Review excerpt from the German edition: "In both Iberian nations (Spain and Portugal), Islam and nationalism are analytically correlated and then compared to each other. More differences than similarities emerge, which in turn emphasizes the varied development of the nation-building process in the two countries. The arguments are convincing." -- Walther Bernecker, Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg, in sehepunkte (2013)
