Looks like an old blog post of mine was picked up by Stanford's 'Arcade': "Popular Andalusi literature and the Arthurian tradition in the Iberian Peninsula" https://shc.stanford.edu/arcade/interventions/popular-andalusi-literature-and-arthurian-tradition-iberian-peninsula #andalus #medievodon #medievaliberia #arthuriana

The first example of chivalric romance in the Iberian Peninsula was written in Arabic.  

OK, an #introduction. I'm Basil Dragonstrike, I'm in the #SCA, in the kingdom of An Tir (#AnTir). I'm interested in medieval #Islamdom, especially #Andalus and #Siqiiya. I'm a #herald, done some #marshalling, and thinking about #cooking. And I'm a horrible #punster (meaning I'm good at it, not bad).

Since I never got into FarceBlech nor (the bird that shan't be named), all lot of this is new and bizzare to me.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to whatever this may bring. :-)

Picture coming soon!
