Abstract
Este estudio se centra en la utilización de la figura del rey Salomón como propaganda política por parte del poder en al-Ándalus, durante la época califal y taifa (s. X-XI). El rey Salomón fue una figura que formó parte de la tradición religiosa judía, cristiana y musulmana, y que tuvo un gran interés para los musulmanes. Salomón reúne las facetas de rey y de profeta, protagonizando hechos memorables en el Corán. El relato coránico fue desarrollado más tarde por escritos de carácter tradicional denominados Qiṣaṣ al-Anbiyāʾ, que aumentaron el cuerpo de relatos asociados a este personaje. Los relatos judíos acerca de Salomón guardan un fuerte parecido con los escritos islámicos, por lo que debió existir una influencia entre ellos. Estas tradiciones circularon por todo el Mediterráneo extendiéndose el conocimiento sobre las mismas y dando lugar a una cultura material de objetos relacionados con ellas. La hipótesis de la que ha partido esta investigación es que estas tradiciones fueron utilizadas políticamente por diferentes entidades políticas en el Mediterráneo, como el Califato omeya de Siria, el Califato abasí y el Imperio bizantino. De estos estados pudieron llegar influencias a al-Ándalus, desarrollándose en la península ibérica un conjunto de leyendas asociadas a objetos de Salomón...
This study focuses on the use of the figure of King Solomon as political propaganda by the governing power in al-Andalus, during the Caliphate and Taifa times (10th-11th centuries). King Solomon was a figure who was part of the Jewish, Christian and Muslim religious traditions, and who was of great importance to Muslims. Solomon had together the facets of king and prophet, and apearing in memorable narrations in the Koran. The Qur'anic story was later developed by traditional stories called Qiṣaṣ al-Anbiyāʾ, which increased the background of stories associated with this character. Jewish accounts of Solomon bear a strong resemblance to Islamic stories, so there must have been an influence between them. These traditions circulated throughout the Mediterranean, spreading knowledge about Solomon and giving rise to a material culture of objects related to him. The main hypothesis of this research is the Solomon’s traditions that were used politically by different political entities in the Mediterranean, such as the Umayyad Caliphate of Syria, the Abbasid Caliphate and the Byzantine Empire. Influences that could reach al-Andalus from these states, developing in the Iberian Peninsula a set of legends associated with Solomon's objects...
