Taking into account the current debates on otherness, cultural exchange and artistic transfer, hybridization, stylistic renewal and national identity building, this collection of essays explores the significance of the Alhambra from the Nasrid period to the present time. Built as a military fortress and gradually enlarged to a multi-functional palace city, by the 19th century the Alhambra became a symbol of exoticism and reverie. As one of the most important legacies of the Islamic heritage of al-Andalus, its role as a mediator between East and West is more important than ever.engbook parthttps://doi.org/10.3726/b10940restricted access7(468.15).033.3Historia del artePintura neerlandesaInteracciones artísticasHibridación culturalGlobalización tempranaArte nazaríHumanidadesHistoria del Arte5506.02 Historia del Arte
