7 Acknowledgements This book has been written m the intervals of teaching at the University of Edinburgh and its appearance is due not least to colleagues and students whose comments have helped me to clarify ideas which are now less half-baked than they would otherwise have been. I owe a special debt of gratitude to Professor Denys Hay, who first turned my thoughts in the direction of medieval Spain and who has been a source of encouragement and help ever since. The editor of the series, Mr Denis Bethell, has devoted much time to helping me to say what I meant, and the book has benefited greatly from his constructive comments and advice. My father has read successive drafts and has saved me from many a blunder. Dr Richard Hitchcock, Dr Salvador Giner and Mr T. H. Newcombe have commented on sections of the book and have helped me on particular points. Although archival material has been used for the elaboration of ideas and interpretations (particularly in the second half of the book), the use of extended references in a work of this size would be a luxury. Similarly I have drawn on the researches of so many scholars, most of whom are mentioned in the bibliographies, that I can only express my general gratitude here. However, references are given for quotations. My greatest debt is to my wife without whose comfort and help this book would truly never have been written.
