APPROACHES TO THE STUDY OF MUSLIM AND JEWISH WOMEN IN MEDIEVALIBERIAN PENINSULA: THE POETESS QASMUNA BAT ISMA`IL

Planteamientos metodológicos en el estudio de las mujeres musulmanas y judías en la Edad Media hispana: La poetisa Qasmuna bat Isma`il.

GALLEGO, MARÍA ÁNGELES  (Universidad de Cambridge (R.U.))

MEAH, sección Hebreo 48 (1999)

Abstract

This article gives a general overview of the various methodological approaches which have been employed in the study of Muslim and Jewish women in Medieval Spain. Then discussion will turn to the Spanish Jewish woman poet Qasmuna bat Isma`il.

Resumen

Este artículo ofrece, en primer lugar, un panorama general sobre la metodología utilizada en el estudio de mujeres musulmanas y judías en la España medieval, para centrarse, finalmente, en el caso de la poetisa hispano-hebrea Qasmuna bat Isma`il.

The last few decades have witnessed an increased interest in the study of women in medieval Iberian Peninsula. Such an interest could be interpreted as part of the current trends of historiographic research and, more specifically, of the relatively modern interest in the study and re-evaluation of the role played by those groups of population which, for different reasons, have been excluded from the records of the official history.
