HUMS 2903 The Three Cultures of Spain

This course (taught at a study abroad site) will explore the nature, challenges and results of conflict and co-existence among Jews, Muslims, and Christians in medieval Spain. It will examine the breakdown of tolerance leading to the expulsions of Spanish Jews in 1492, Spanish Muslims in 1502, and the Moriscos of Spanish Muslim descent in 1609. Spain's subsequent involvement in Morocco will receive particular attention, as will the roles of Christians, Jews, and Muslims in present-day Spain.
