Abstract

"Creating Christian Granada provides a detailed examination of a critical and transitional episode in Spain's march to global empire. With constant attention to situating the Granada case in the broader comparative contexts of the medieval reconquista tradition on the one hand and sixteenth-century Spanish imperialism in the Americas on the other, Coleman carefully charts the changes in the conquered city's social, political, religious, and physical landscapes. In the process, he sheds light on the local factors contributing to the emergence of tensions between the conquerors and Granada's formerly Muslim, "native" morisco community in the decades leading up to the crown-mandated explusion of most of the city's moriscos in 1569-1570"--Jacket.
