Course Description
From the CTY Course Catalog (2008):
In this interdisciplinary course, students explore the "golden age" of Spain and the unique multicultural society that thrived from the 8th to 14th centuries. Characterized by a blending of the arts and cultures of Jews, Christians, and Muslims, the Iberian Peninsula served as a unique center of learning in areas as varied as philosophy, astronomy, and medicine. From dissecting the cultural influences of the architecture of the Alhambra to examining the writings of Maimonides, students explore the interplay of culture during a particularly rich period in Spanish history.
