The essay traces the history of Córdoba, capital of al-Andalus under the Umayyads, from when Abd al-Rahman III proclaimed the Caliphate until its disintegration into taifa kingdoms. Although it barely lasted a century, the Caliphate left a lasting intellectual and monumental legacy: Averroes, Maimonides, the Great Mosque and Madinat al-Zahra.
