In questo contesto, un soggetto che si sta imponendo come protagonista nelle dinamiche dell’area è la Turchia, a cui è dedicato questo libro. In particolare, le riflessioni puntano a metterne in luce il ruolo costruttivo nel rafforzamento del dialogo interculturale e interreligioso in una triplice dimensione: - come soggetto adatto a mediare tra tutti i popoli dell’area in virtù del proprio passato che ne ha radicato l’immagine di ‘ponte’ tra Occidente e paesi arabi; - come fattore attivo nel promuovere la stabilizzazione dell'area mediterranea grazie a una intensa azione diplomatica che la vede impegnata in prima linea nei processi di pace; - come modello istituzionale per que...

Secretaries and the Running of Government

Along the dynasties and potentates who vied for power in the Iberian peninsula, the kuttāb's wide knowledge of the linguistic and literary tradition of the Arabs and their ability to symbolically represent and enhance the ruler's authority in their writings, became the gold standard against which legitimate entitlement to rule could be weighed.

Li-kull dahr dawla wa-riǧāl : temps, auteurs et autorité chez les théoriciens andalous de la kitāba, Ve/XIe-VIe/XIIe siècles

Arabica, 2019

Al-Andalus/España. Historiografías en contraste

¿Pertenece la historia de al-Andalus a la historia de España? ¿Qué relaciones cabe establecer ent... more ¿Pertenece la historia de al-Andalus a la historia de España? ¿Qué relaciones cabe establecer entre ellas? Una fuerte corriente historiográfica puso el acento, en el siglo xx, en la hispanización de al-Andalus, convertido así en «España musulmana» y habitado por españoles que, por azares de la historia, eran musulmanes. En tiempos más recientes, esa tradición, de marcado carácter esencialista, se ha visto superada por interpretaciones que sitúan al-Andalus en un contexto más definido por elementos magrebíes y orientales que por los propiamente hispánicos. En este libro se plantea una revisión de la historiografía española, francesa y portuguesa sobre la historia de al-Andalus, desde una mirada crítica que abarca otros temas igualmente centrales para la comprensión de un fenómeno histórico que ha generado y continúa generando polémica. En torno a la reivindicación o la repulsa de lo andalusí, se han creado paradigmas culturales de gran potencia, se han marcado líneas divisorias y áreas de contacto o de conflicto. Todo ello no puede eliminarse de un plumazo o contemplarse con una mirada desdeñosa: forma parte de un pasado que todavía hoy solivianta a muchos, mientras que atrae a otros, lo que quiere decir que su actualidad sigue vigente

Il percorso politico di Giorgio Levi Della Vida, dall’impresa libica al rifiuto del giuramento, 1911-1931

Through his personal memoirs and
less known archival documents, it also aims at presenting Levi Della Vida’s peculiar perspective on the events he was part of, while underlining his unbroken commitment to the principles of intellectual and academic freedom.
