| Summary | "La Alhambra; Leyendas árabes" by Manuel Fernández y González is a collection of Arabic legends set in 13th-century Andalusia. The text intertwines historical elements with romantic tales surrounding the famous Alhambra palace and its historical context during the Muslim era in Spain. The book delves into the lives of various characters, including the young prince Mohammet Abd'Allah and other figures who experienced love, conflict, and magic against the backdrop of this iconic location. The opening of the work introduces the historical setting of the Colina Roja where the Alhambra will eventually be constructed. The narrative showcases a vivid landscape of the region, depicting its natural beauty and historical ruins. It introduces the character of a young prince who is drawn to a white-clad woman, Bekralbayda, and entangles him in a supernatural and romantic quest filled with encounters and omens represented by a mysterious owl. As the prince searches for his love, we are shown glimpses of his emotional turmoil and longing, setting the stage for an intricate narrative steeped in legend and lore.
