A 360-page journey into one of the most significant cultural moments of the medieval city of Toledo: the birth of the School of Translators! The Christian reconquest of the Islamic city of Tulaytula (Toledo) by the Christian forces of King Alfonso VI in 1085, and the discovery of the priceless library of the Muslim ruler al-Ma’mun, provide the perfect framework for this tribute to the coexistence of the three religions—Muslim, Jewish, and Christian—which, by sharing a common culture, made possible the transmission of the universal knowledge brought by the Muslims to the Iberian Peninsula to Christian Europe. This is a story that will transport you to the aromas, flavours, and atmosphere of a city that, in many ways, still endures today despite the passage of the centuries. Intrigue, love, and death in a captivating novel! Written by Adolfo Ferrero. Price: 22€ + Shipping costs
