The Aristocracy in Twelfth-Century León and Castile
An examination of the nature and role of the aristocracy in twelfth-century Spain.
Berenguela the Great and Her Times (1180-1246)
This biography presents a remarkable vision of Spanish society at the beginning of the 13th century by exploring the life of Berenguela of Castile (1180-1246), a queen who dominated public life for over forty years. Born at a time when the centers of Christian power were formed, Berenguela provided royal leadership in a crucial period of Iberian history. Within the context of contemporary studies of female power throughout history, Salvador Martínez brings to life Berenguela, a queen who, through her wisdom and resolve, transformed the Iberian political and cultural scene for years to come.

Rulers and Realms in Medieval Iberia, 711-1492
The Muslim conquest of Iberia in 711 began nearly eight centuries of struggle for control of the peninsula. The invaders quickly achieved military supremacy, but political dominance was less complete. Within a few years, a small band of Christian rebels defied Muslim authority, establishing their own ruling class in the northern mountains of Asturias. The opposing forces competed for control until the Catholic Monarchs Fernando and Isabel established absolute rule in 1492. Drawing on the latest scholarship, this comprehensive study traces the succession of Iberian sovereigns during a complicated period in early European history.

El poder del linaje: la alta nobleza de Castilla y León en la Edad Media
Con el presente trabajo, el autor nos ofrece un corpus genealógico que contiene a todas las grandes familias de la Edad Media peninsular, desde el siglo VIII hasta finales del siglo XV. La obra se divide en tres partes: Galicia, León y Castilla. El interés del tema es evidente, cuando constatamos la extraordinaria importancia que el estudio de la genealogía implica para el mejor conocimiento del mundo medieval. Nos encontramos con una sociedad de carácter estamental, regida por diversos linajes, todos ellos interconectados entre sí. Todo el entramado social que late por debajo de ellos está constituido por un conjunto de familias de segundo rango, también interconectadas entre sí, y...

Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
