"Conquerors, Brides, and Concubines" explores the political and cultural importance of marriages and sexual encounters between Christians and Muslims in the Iberian Peninsula from the 8th century to 1492. Drawing on a diverse range of sources, Simon Barton examines how these interfaith relationships were viewed, tolerated, or feared within the context of complex religious boundaries and social tensions. The book highlights how sex, power, and identity intertwined in shaping interfaith relations amid a region marked by religious coexistence and conflict.
