— [http://goo.gl/Zn7nlO] The Myth of the Andalusian Paradise: Muslims, Christians, and Jews Under Islamic Rule in Medieval Spain_______________________by Darío Fernández-Morera.
:: RT: Darío Fernández-Morera ▶ https://goo.gl/E1ARwR ◀ «The existence of a Muslim kingdom in Medieval Spain where different races and religions lived harmoniously in multicultural tolerance is one of today’s most widespread myths. | #mozárabes #christians #muslims #jews #religion #salafism
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 history by drawing on an abundance of primary sources that scholars have ignored, as well as archaeological evidence only recently unearthed.
This supposed beacon of peaceful coexistence began, of course, with the Islamic Caliphate’s conquest of Spain. Far from a land of religious tolerance, Islamic Spain was marked by religious and therefore cultural repression in all areas of life and the marginalization of Christians and other groups—all this in the service of social control by autocratic rulers and a class of religious authorities.
The Myth of the Andalusian Paradise provides a desperately needed reassessment of medieval Spain. As professors, politicians, and pundits continue to celebrate Islamic Spain for its “multiculturalism” and “diversity,” Fernández-Morera sets the historical record straight—showing that a politically useful myth is a myth nonetheless.

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.

Darío Fernández-Morera has done the work of serious scholarship in demythologizing the supposed tolerant and benevolent Islamic civilization in Spain. North African Berbers, or “Moors were Islamic warriors that entered Christian Spain and defeated the Visigothic king Rodrigo. The brutality with which the Muslims subjugated the Catholic population was NOT very harmonious.
