The Emirs of Córdoba allowedpilgrims to travel to Mecca. These pilgrims bought and brought booksand lessons back with them so that the cultural currents betweenEast and West were quite fluid. By the end of the 9th Century, theArabic-Islamic culturization of Al-Andalus was a fact. Although themajority of Analusian literature is written in classical Arabic, anHispano-Arabic dialect began to evolve in which jarchas (short codasto longer poems in early Spanish poetry), zéjeles (ancient Arabicpoems) and refrains were written.Las revistas poéticas españolas (1939-1975)Spanish Poetic Magazines (1939-1975)F.

It was later revised and republishedin 1753. Now it is considered one of the master works ofFrench culture from the Enlightenment. It combines the heritage ofillustrated rationalism with a new romantic sensibility without abandoningthe framework of picaresque tradition. The novel speaks of sexand money, the fatality of desire and the force of conventions. It alsocontains a portrait of one of the first, if not the first, femme fatale ofour tradition. All of this makes it a book of surprising modernity.Spanish Poetic Magazines (1939-1975) was the fruit of Fanny Rubio’sdoctoral thesis after an exhaustive process of documentation,research and material selection.
