Facets of Exchange between North Africa and the Iberian Peninsula
A Special Issue of The Journal of North African Studies
“It is hoped that these articles will provide a starting point for further discussion and research on connections between the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa and even Europe and the eastern Mediterranean. By allowing ourselves to think beyond familiar categories and boundaries such as nationalities and continents, perhaps we can recover something of the common humanity that drives us to seek each other out, and that provides the foundation of our humanistic disciplines." From the editors' introduction.
