It compares three such works (here called Antialcoranes or ‘anti-Qur’āns’) that contain citations of the Qur’ān in Arabic, either in Arabic script or in transliteration, or both. These include the Confusión o confutación de la secta Mahomética y del Alcorán (1515) of Juan Andrés, the Lumbre de fe contra la secta mahometana y el alcorán (1521) by Martín de Figuerola and the Confutación del alcorán y secta mahometana (1555) by Lope de Obregón. It also considers glosses found in the Latin Qur’ān made at the behest of the Italian cardinal Egidio (Giles) da Viterbo (1518). We argue that these works merit detailed study, along with more studied Latin translations, as part of a history of the translation of the Qur’ān in the early modern period.

Among the Arabic manuscripts of Hispanic origin to be found in the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana... more Among the Arabic manuscripts of Hispanic origin to be found in the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana is ms Barb. Or. 83 (from now on Barb. 83), which contains a copy of al-Risāla al-hārūniyya, an Arabic medical treatise composed by Masīḥ b. Ḥakam al-Dimashqī in the Hegira third century (ninth century ce).1 The manuscript begins with an autograph dedication by Diego Pérez de Mesa to Cardinal Francesco Barberini, nephew and cardinale nipote of Maffeo Barberini, Pope Urban viii. The modern editor of the text, Suzanne Gigandet, links the manuscript to another manuscript containing the same Arabic work also held at the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana (ms Vat. Ara. 309), which Gigandet believes to belong to the same Hispanic tradition.2 The identification seems to be borne out by the catalogue of Arabic manuscripts in the Biblioteca Vaticana compiled by Giorgio Levi della Vida, which attributes both manuscripts to the 'convertito' Diego Pérez de Mesa.3 In the pages that follow, however, we intend to revise this attribution as well as to establish with greater precision 1 The research leading to these results has received funding from the European Research Council under the European Union Seventh Framework Programme (fp7/2007-2013)/ erc Grant Agreement number 323316, project corpi 'Conversion, Overlapping Religiosities, Polemics, Interaction.

The person regarded as the link between them is a convert from Islam to Christianity known as Juan Gabriel from Teruel, formerly Ali Alayzar. The arguments in favour of this thesis are presented, first of all, within a historical description of the circumstances and coincidences of the people involved in the production of the two translation projects; secondly, textual evidence is put forward in which correspondences, similarities and differences are highlighted and discussed. We also consider the similarities to the quotations in Juan Andrés’s Confusión o confutación del Alcorán, drawing attention to a circle of other Christian polemicists around Martín García who were all working in various ways with the Arabic Qur’an.

Research paper thumbnail of Sacred History, Sacred Languages: The Question of Arabic in Early Modern Spain

Early Modern Europe was witness to an unprecedented interest in learning the Arabic language. Thi... more Early Modern Europe was witness to an unprecedented interest in learning the Arabic language. This philological interest was connected to the evidence of Arabic similarity with Hebrew and the usefulness of Arabic grammars and dictionaries for studying the Holy Tongue. A field of knowledge was gradually created in which Arabic detached itself from its use as an instrument of pros-elytizing or diplomacy. This shift occurred through the translation and citation of Arabic sources, the purchase and cataloguing of Arabic manuscripts in the main libraries of Europe and an attempt to institutionalize the teaching of Arabic at universities. The exhaustive study of the Bible and its various tex-tual traditions, the need to coordinate these with newly acquired knowledge of other languages, including Arabic, and the refinement of historiographic and philological tools which were the accompanying processes all contributed to dismantling the walls between sacred and profane history. This package of new knowledge can be labelled 'Orientalism'. As applied by scholars to this period, the term refers to a crucial moment in the creation of Oriental studies in Europe characterised by the foundational activities of figures like Erpenius, Raimondi or Bedwell. This refers to both their works and their search for new texts with which to learn Oriental languages. Such 'Oriental scholar-ship' or early 'Orientalism' proved itself capable of creating basic critical, historical and philological tools which were problematic for extant textual and religious authority. The religious dimension was ever-present in a world dominated by polemics with the Europe of the Reformation and by the process of confessionalization. Ever since James Monroe published his well-known book on Arabic studies in Spain, scholars have argued that Spain played no part in the development of

Research paper thumbnail of Stephen Greenblatt: El giro. De cómo un manuscrito olvidado contribuyó a crear el mundo moderno

Revista de Libros, abril 2014

El giro es la historia de un libro (de un solo libro) o más bien, la historia de un antiguo poema... more El giro es la historia de un libro (de un solo libro) o más bien, la historia de un antiguo poema en latín. Se trata de De rerum natura, o De la naturaleza de las cosas, la única obra que ha sobrevivido del poeta latino Tito Lucrecio Caro. La historia que construye Stephen Greenblatt parte del momento en el que el texto de Lucrecio fue redescubierto en el Renacimiento italiano, y de quiénes lo encontraron, lo copiaron y lo hicieron circular, de quiénes se interesaron por él, lo leyeron y lo comprendieron, dándole otra nueva vida y una nueva dimensión. De cuáles fueron las consecuencias de que entonces, tantos siglos después de haber sido escrito, se leyera. Es una historia de la recepción del poema a partir del momento en que se puso en circulación y de las circunstancias que hicieron que el más pagano de los poetas llegara a encontrar un lugar preeminente en la Biblioteca Apostólica Vaticana, donde fue ampliamente consultado. Y de cómo, en fin, según el autor, su lectura y su recepción abrieron unas compuertas intelectuales que dieron origen a la Modernidad. Lucrecio -mantiene Greenblatt-ofreció a los lectores cristianos una visión del mundo tan radicalmente diferente a la suya que obligó necesariamente al cuestionamiento de casi todos sus presupuestos. El libro del estadounidense nos ilustra continuamente acerca de cómo una obra de arte o de creación literaria está a la vez profundamente imbricada en un tiempo y unos lugares precisos y, al tiempo, se desgaja y trasciende ese contexto con una capacidad insólita de hablar a gentes de otra época, de hablarnos también a nosotros e interpelarnos directamente como si fuera un producto de nuestra época contemporánea. Ambos aspectos están magistralmente expresados en El giro, que transmite vívidamente la creencia de su autor de que un libro puede transformar el mundo. O, más bien, que pudo transformar aquellos mundos pasados en los que habitaban gentes para las cuales las respuestas a las preguntas acuciantes que se planteaban en torno a la existencia y composición del universo, o al origen de la vida, se encontraban en los libros.

Research paper thumbnail of Polemical Comparisons in the Apology against the Christian Religion by Muhamad Alguazir (c. 1610)

Entangled Religions, 2021

This essay analyses the comparisons made in the Apology against the articles of the Christian Rel... more This essay analyses the comparisons made in the Apology against the articles of the Christian Religion by Muhamad Alguazir (c. 1610). Alguazir, a Morisco from Pastrana (Spain), was one of the Moriscos living at the court of sultan Mawlay Zaydan (1608–1627). The polemical treatise he wrote was sent to Maurice of Orange shortly after the conclusion of a treaty of friendship between Zaydan and the Dutch (in 1610) and translated into Latin. The polemic had a two-pronged later influence: on European debates about the Trinity; and it was used by Anti-Trinitarians and by German Lutherans in their polemics against them, on the one hand, and by Moriscos living in Tunis, viz. the expelled Toledan Morisco Juan Pérez aka Ibrahim Taybili, on the other. We study the transformations that the polemic underwent according to the translations and the religious transfers.

Journal of Transcultural Medieval Studies, 2018

This essay studies the translations of the Qur’ān into Romance languages in anti-Islamic treatise... more This essay studies the translations of the Qur’ān into Romance languages in anti-Islamic treatises written by Christians in the Iberian Peninsula in the sixteenth century. It compares three such works (here called Antialcoranes or ‘anti-Qur’āns’) that contain citations of the Qur’ān in Arabic, either in Arabic script or in transliteration, or both. These include the Confusión o confutación de la secta Mahomética y del Alcorán (1515) of Juan Andrés, the Lumbre de fe contra la secta mahometana y el alcorán (1521) by Martín de Figuerola and the Confutación del alcorán y secta mahometana (1555) by Lope de Obregón. It also considers glosses found in the Latin Qur’ān made at the behest of the Italian cardinal Egidio (Giles) da Viterbo (1518). We argue that these works merit detailed study, along with more studied Latin translations, as part of a history of the translation of the Qur’ān in the early modern period.

Deze reconstructie van het leven van Pallache, een jood van Spaanse afkomst, die opgroeide in Marokko, is een geslaagde microgeschiedenis van de joden in Europa en verkent de complexe loyaliteiten en identiteiten die ze tussen de verschillende werelden construeerden. Geboren omstreeks 1550 in Fez in een Marokkaans-joodse familie van Spaanse origine, werd Pallache gezant van de koning van Marokko in de Republiek der Zeven Verenigde Provincien, koopman en piraat. Op last van de Spaanse ambassadeur werd hij gevangengezet in Londen en na inmenging van stadhouder prins Maurits weer vrijgelaten, maar als voormalig dienaar van de Spaanse koning was hij tegelijkertijd verwikkeld in een complex dubbelspel. Als 'barbarijnse' jood speelde hij een rol van betekenis in het vroegste synagogale leven in Amsterdam, maar hij en leden van zijn naaste familie overwogen ook een bekeri...
