It serves as a well researched compliment to the growing corpus of studies of magic in medieval Spain and will serve scholars who wish to pursue further studies in that area. ~Jennifer M.

Synopsis
It is difficult to assess an explanation of a belief, or a belief system in words, Tobienne begins, and harder still to assign signification to such inexplicable conviction[s]. This book addresses the often blurred line[s] between magic, religion, and science within Spanish literature and history, and is divided into three parts. The first section offers a brief overview of Spanish history from the fifth century through the seventh century and looks at the divide between white and black magic. White magic is often attributed to a divine agency, whereas black magic is the result of dark or demonic influences. The second part of the book looks at Alfonso X (also known as el Sabio, or the Wise) and his Las Siete Partidas and Lapidario, and the role of how magic was received in the Spanish university system and translating centers and spaces within Alfonso's court. The final section examines two poems: Auto de Los Reyes Magos and the Vida de Santa Maria Egipciaca in terms of the white magic concepts of mirabilia and miracula. Collectively, these poems alongside Bishop Isidore of Seville's Etymologiae contribute to the discourse of a Medieval Spain and its rich, intellectual history and moreover, provides a launching pad into this discussion regarding a small window of quasi-tolerance in Spain amidst Muslims, Jews, and Christians., ...fascinating, clearly organized scholarly text...organised into three easy to follow chapters...covers its subject with clarity and sufficient depth to make its point...

    Item was lost during shipping. Somewhere between FedEx receiving it and FedEx handing it over to USPS. And once it got handed to USPS, all tracking ability ceased. The seller did all they could to help us, however in the end, the package is lost. The seller promptly refunded the full amount. This situation is not any reflection on the seller. The item was priced right and I'm sure it was packed well. I would not hesitate buying from this seller again.
