|aIf the idea of the medieval has been widely deployed in the colonialand neocolonial West as amarker of cultural backwardness, the Anglo-American perspective has often regarded Spain as part ofa historically underdeveloped world and as a late-comer to Protestant/Enlightenment traditions of democracy, tolerance, and progress. Yet the many cultural dimensions of medieval Iberia make it pressingly relevant to current critiques of western modernity. This volume, which brings into dialogue historians and literary scholars in medieval and modern Iberian cultures,interrogates the contemporarysignificance of the distant Spanish past, particularly in regard to tensions in the relationship between the West and Islam. Rejecting an illusory space of neutrality, the search forrelevance is envisioned as an ethically and politically necessary formof inquiry.
