The 2021 Summer Institute will engage with current scholarship that spans 1400 years of cultural histories connecting the Arabic-speaking and Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking worlds. These eras range from the Arab-Umayyad era in the 7th century, through the Hispano-Arabic period, encompassing the Golden Age of Spain and Iberia, and continuing to contemporary Latin America. Scholars in literature, language, theater, the arts, and other fields in the humanities have looked at particular aspects of this interwoven, centuries-long, transcultural tradition.
