English summary: The author offers a well-informed and thorough introduction to Spanish history of the middle ages, characterised by the interactions of Muslim, Jewish and Christian influences. Processes of cultural transfer don’t only govern the relations of the various Iberian realms, but to the outside world Spain functioned as hub for new ideas. These phenomena of cultural exchange are central to this wide historical overview from the time of the Visigoths, through the different realms of the middle ages to the era of the catholic kings. The latter’s conquering of Granada and through the voyages of Columbus putting Spain in an excellent position in a new global system. German description: Der Autor bietet eine kenntnisreiche und fundierte Einfuhrung in die mittelalterliche Geschichte Spaniens, die wie keine zweite in Europa von Wechselwirkungen zwischen muslimischen, judischen und christlichen Einflussen gepragt wurde. Kulturelle Transferprozesse bestimmten nicht nur massgeblich die Beziehungen der verschiedenen iberischen Reiche untereinander, auch nach aussen hin wirkte Spanien vermittelnd als “Drehscheibe” fur neue Ideen. Diese Phanomene des kulturellen Austauschs stehen im Mittelpunkt eines breit angelegten historischen Uberblicks von der Westgotenzeit, uber die verschiedenen Reiche des Mittelalters bis hin zur Epoche der Katholischen Konige, in der sich Spanien mit der Eroberung Granadas oder den Fahrten des Kolumbus eine herausragende Position in einem neuen Weltsystem schuf.
