El mensaje de las monedas almohades
Además de su importancia en la historia de la economía y de las artes, las monedas islámicas medievales constituyeron un destacado medio de expresión del ideario religioso y político dominante en los Estados que las emitieron. La dinastía almohade gobernó, durante la segunda mitad del siglo XII y el XIII, un imperio que se extendía por el Magreb y buena parte de la península Ibérica. Y bajo su gobierno hubo un gran desarrollo de múltiples aspectos culturales, incluido el discurso de legitimación teocrático sobre el que asentaban su poder. Este libro pretende mostrar que en las inscripciones y otros elementos semióticos de las monedas de los almohades se contienen los principales presupuestos de su visión de Dios, de la religión y de la política. Y asimismo que las monedas almohades culminaron un proceso de islamización y arabización de las formas numismáticas. Además de analizar el manejo que hicieron los almohades de ciertos conceptos coránicos, se traza una historia de las traducciones del discurso religioso islámico (como parte de las Escrituras y como elemento epigráfico) por parte del arabismo occidental.

Al-Andalus
From 711 when they arrived on the Iberian Peninsula until 1492 when scholars contribute a wide-ranging series of essays and catalogue entries which are fully companion to the 373 illustrations (324 in color) of the spectacular art and architecture of the nearly vanished culture. 91/2x121/2 they were expelled by Ferdinand and Isabella, the Muslims were a powerful force in al-Andalus, as they called the Iberian lands they controlled. This awe-inspiring volume, which accompanies a major exhibition presented at the Alhambra in Granada and The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, is devoted to the little-known artistic legacy of Islamic Spain, revealing the value of these arts as part of an autonomous culture and also as a presence with deep significance for both Europe and the Islamic world.
