The crusade which conquered Mediterranean Spain in the thirteenth
century resulted in the domination by an alien Christian minority
of a dissident Muslim majority and an unusually large Jewish
population. Professor Burns' research into previously untapped
archival sources reveals the tensions and interaction between the
three religious societies after the crusade. A principal source for
the author's research has been the revolutionary paper registers of
King Jaume the Conqueror. These abundant and neglected documents
shed new light on Jaume's pluri-ethnic kingdom during its first
generation of settlement. The chapters, each a pioneering work for
its topic, are radically different in subject and in approach, and
yet concern the same theme, the symbiosis of cultures in the
redeveloping kingdom, and the same time-span, the reigns of Jaume
the Conqueror and his son, Pere the Great.
