In 1492, Queen Isabella's conquest of Granada delivered a final, devastating blow to Al-Andalus, marking a profound catastrophe. However, the end of Islamic rule did not signify the demise of the Andalusian people. This book sheds light on the history of the Moriscos after Granada's fall, uncovering their two-century struggle to preserve their existence, Arab identity, and religion against the formidable powers of 16th-century Europe. It chronicles their resistance against assimilation efforts by figures like Charles V and Philip II, and their significant, often overlooked, role in shaping European civilization.
