Abstract
Given the current situation in the Islamic world, the wave of terrorist attacks and the global refugee crisis, it is worth questioning History without bias to avoid simplistic or ‘essentialist’ analyses and fostering confrontation between peoples, religions and cultures. By addressing periods of coexistence, conviviality and cultural exchanges between Christians and Muslims (as well as Jews) in the Iberian Peninsula and the Middle East, we aim to measure the degree and scope of those historically-documented interchanges.
