Scholars, journalists, and politicians uphold Muslim-ruled medieval Spain - “al-Andalus” - as a multicultural paradise, a place where Muslims, Christians, and Jews lived in harmony.
There is only one problem with this widely accepted account: It is a myth.
In this groundbreaking book, Northwestern University scholar Darío Fernández-Morera tells the full story of Islamic Spain. The Myth of the Andalusian Paradise shines light on hidden features of this medieval culture by drawing on an abundance of primary sources that scholars have ignored, as well as archaeological evidence only recently unearthed.
As professors, politicians, and pundits continue to celebrate Islamic Spain for its “multiculturalism” and “diversity”, Fernández-Morera sets the record straight - showing that a politically useful myth is a myth nonetheless.

By todays standards, ofc it wasn’t anything close to multicultural etc.. Its just that for the times it was probably more so than any other place since it was at that time a crossroads for so many different peoples.
Multicultural paradise my foot. Most professors, politicians, and pundits of today are putzes. To enamoured and glorifying of the overly civilized.

Were Jews being expelled and burned at the stake, along with Muslims, Protestants, and other innocences in grand Autos de Fé as happened in Christian Spain, and in other Catholic countries for hundreds of years, after the, so called, Christian conquest of the Iberian Peninsula
No? Then maybe the author is writing due to bigotry. How shocking would that be?

There are two sorts of history books — those that strive to uncover the objective facts, and those that are pushing a political point of view and modern agenda by selectively picking and distorting the facts.
Most of what we get these days is the second type, justified by a claim that there is no objective truth, and everything is about power and hierarchy. (Thanks Foucolt & Derrida!)
Which of the two sorts is this one? Well… I’d want to read it first before venturing an opinion.
After all, it’s usually best honestly to try to get objective facts before having an opinion.

This book is 100% right on. You liberal Islamophiles might want to do your research (nah, just re-write history for your rainbow unicorn orgy). The “peaceful” Islam was/is a lie.

This book isn’t politically motivated. It is historically motivated. Actually listening to it would inform the various individuals who have commented of this fact.

conflict began after 150 years of conquest. by the man named Ölog. his book literally says go to their mosque and bash their prophet. christians did not even know what islam was they thought it was another form of Arius Christianity. this later got bigger. but no historian can answer why the conflict began between the who after 150 years!
—————
The conquest of Islam was a favor for Spain. Because this conquest brought about an important social revolution; It has eliminated most of the troubles that have plagued the country for centuries. The Muslims ruled according to the following method: the taxes were completely lowered compared to those of the old administrations. They took huge knightly lands cultivated by slave farmers or dissatisfied slaves from the wealthy and divided them equally among those who cultivated them. The new owners worked with great zeal and produced a very good crop. Trade was freed from crushing restrictions and heavy taxes and flourished. This gave rise to a new energy. All these measures provided a general relief that led to the favorable acceptance of Muslim rule from the very beginning.

Modern Zionists are doing everything to conceal the fact that Islam is the religion for all mankind. But Muslims today aren’t united and don’t have influence in western media. The term western comes from Muslim Spain. Islamic Spain is a very long time. America 200 years old. Muslims in Spain invented universities, street lights, huge science and mathematical work, while Europe was in dark ages. Then when the fake Christians started their war, the Jews knew that they could die or convert, or go to morocco and other places. How did Jews thrive….well, these were real Jews and Christians, not AshkeNazis or trinity Christians.
Muslims were in Hawaii. California Cuba waay before Columbus, his son had journals and talked about huge Mosque in Cuba. Honolulu means the place of pearls in Arabic. Hawaii means ppl of Eve.
ANYWAY IN QURAN COMPETITION IS A BAD THING SO Muslims don’t use platforms to say Muslim Spain is better then modern Spain, I think they should.
We all know who controls the publishing industry so there is a whole anti-muslim industry to fire up tax payers to support war…now they are coming for our own citizens. “White Supremacy” which is the scary word for refusing a covid19 shot.
Fortunately there is tons of literature from Islamic Spain so intelligent ppl aren’t affected by propaganda.
Anyway goto Bollyn.com for free e-books.

Excellent comment @rawy

Wow, these comments are hilarious. This book doesn’t have a` political stance. IT is about the Umayyad Caliphate of Cordoba. It was a cultural and economic powerhouse but its reputation for tolerance is exaggerated. I+ mean, how could you fully trust the catholic community while you are defending against a war of liberation? The Caliphate was also a den of vipers, with intrigue to match the worst of the Byzantine court.

Yeah! Muhammad was on the Muslim Moon years be4 Clark Kent ever arrived there. That’s why every1 refers to it as al-Moon, to this very day. And there was a huge mosque there even be4 Muhammad took his magic carpet up there. And Clark Kent (a Zionist-created superhero) was too busy causing the 7/11 attacks, and blaming it on Al Jazeera, peace be upon their golden news network.
Comments beyond parody, unfortunately. At least keep the untruths from becoming too ridiculous, then u might be able to gull a handful of desperate, isolated al-eejits.
