Irigoyen-García’s insightful and nuanced analyses of Moorish clothing production and circulation shows that as well as being a sign of status and a marker of nobility, it also served to codify social tensions by deploying apparent Islamophobic discourses. Such luxurious value of clothing also sheds light on how sartorial legislation against the Moriscos was not only a form of cultural repression, but also a way to preclude their full integration into Iberian society. \u003ci\u003eMoors Dressed as Moors \u003c\/i\u003echallenges the traditional interpretations of the value of Moorish clothing in sixteenth and seventeenth-century Spain and how it articulated the relationships between Christians and Moriscos.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54253378699608,"sku":"9781487501600","price":68.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781487501600_8954d28b-b454-4619-b093-6f771e051ec5.jpg?v=1777120241","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/moors-dressed-as-moors","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
