El arte hispanomusulmaacute;n es parte del arte islaacute;mico. Pero; al mismo tiempo; es heredero y receptor de otras tradiciones artiacute;sticas que son las que colaboran a darle su riqueza y su propia caracterizacioacute;n. La presencia del Islam en la peniacute;nsula Ibeacute;rica durante casi ocho siglos; con su extraordinario bagaje cultural y sus espleacute;ndidas creaciones artiacute;sticas; determinoacute; la personalidad de lo hispaacute;nico medieval; diferente del resto; africano o europeo; y acuntilde;oacute; peculiaridades que; trascendiendo a la presencia material de lo musulmaacute;n; forman parte integrante y diferencial de lo que; geneacute;ricamente; puede considerarse espantilde;ol. El arte hispanomusulmaacute;n es el mejor testimonio tangible de aquellos tiempos.

A one time read; you might say. Wrong! I periodically pick this up and reread it and always find plenty to laugh at. I bought this and the first book: "Like I Give A Frock"; and keep them by my chair for a pick me up when life (and my other books) get grim. I strongly recommend both books - have yet to meet anyone who doesnt find them delightful. The illustrations are a super bonus. They are simply fabulous and worth buying the book for - even if you dont possess a sense of humor. Buy it; youll like it. Unless; of course; you find clothes boring - but theres no hope for you anyway!4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Superb Fashion Fun-makingBy Mary BrownSimply brilliant design. Pithy writing. Authors Quigley and Pollock effectively handle clothing descriptions and fashion terms with aplomb.Shrugs ARE "small; indecisive jackets."Buy this dandy book for yourself.Send a copy to your favorite fashion police person.Leave anonymously for fashion-victim-colleagues to find. (Hey; you. In the drawstring pants. Click this. NOW.)1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Great gift for a girlfriend!By Sweetie DarlingVery well done!
