The rich cultural and political life of Spain has emerged from its
complex history, from the diversity of its peoples, and from
continual contact with outside influences. This updated edition
traces that history from prehistoric times to the present, focusing
particularly on culture, society, politics, and personalities.
Written in an engaging style, it introduces readers to key themes
that have shaped Spain's history and culture. These include its
varied landscapes and climates; the impact of waves of diverse
human migrations; the importance of its location as a bridge
between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean and Europe and Africa;
and religion, particularly militant Catholic Christianity and its
centuries of conflict with Islam and Protestantism, as well as
debates over the place of the church in modern Spain.
Illustrations, maps and a guide to further reading, major cultural
figures, and places to see make the history of this fascinating
country come alive.
