The Glory of Al Andalus
With Jeremy Leigh
We go back 1,000 years to when Jews and Muslims shared a world of intellect, art and culture. Cordoba, the capital of the great Andalusian Empire, represented a model of a Jewish community living successfully in a non-Jewish world. In nearby Seville we compare the experience of Islam with that of Christianity. Put together these remarkable cities and they offer fascinating commentaries on today’s troubled times and the 'clash of civilizations'.
Poland
Warsaw and Kazimirz-Dolny
Thursday 29 January –
Sunday 1 February 2009
£350* per person plus flights
(*£55 single supplement)
With Jeremy Leigh & Julian Resnick
A Journey of extremes…There are few cities in the world that as dramatically illustrate the drama of the Jew in the modern world as Warsaw; Warsaw was the capital of Jewish Eastern Europe, an epicentre of cultural creativity, political activity and religious scholarship. Kazimierz Dolny, meanwhile, was the model shtetl, a Jewish village set along the Vistula, the river that 'whispered in Yiddish'.
