Memory of al-'Andalus

Among the exiled communities from Iberia settled within our realm, verses and songs recalling al-'Andalus, a paradise their ancestors once called home and lost, still circulate at Court Title and in private gatherings alike, kept alive more in poetry now than in any living memory. Some among us would see that memory encouraged as a mark of this realm's own hospitality; others would rather let old grievances toward Iberia fade quietly into legend before they harden into something sharper.

historical_info = d009_late_minorities.6.historical_info The idea of al-'Andalus as a lost paradise took deep root in both Sephardi and Andalusi Muslim memory across the Maghreb, romanticized in poetry, music, and later architecture long after any realistic hope of return had faded. By the 18th and 19th centuries this nostalgia had become as much a literary and artistic tradition in its own right as a genuine political memory, one that would later be invoked by very different movements for very different purposes.
