SPA 250 - Coexistence and Conflict: Multiculturalism in Early Modern Spain

3 Credits
Offered Fall
Formerly SPA 352 Christians, Jews and Muslims of Spain: Medieval Minds in Modern English. Medieval Spain (Iberia) was Europe’s most religiously diverse region–home to Christians, Jews, and Muslims–and produced some of the most significant cultural manifestations of all time. This course probes the subjugation of each group, how they fought back, and its lasting impact. Among other things, we examine laws and literature as forms of control and resistance; architectural appropriation as means of oppression and suppression; and the modern-day repercussions of medieval exile.
