The Handless Maiden is a fascinating and well-written book that offers a new perspective on the Moriscos of Spain and their struggle to find a place in a society that, at least among the upper echelons, was not in favor of what we would nowadays call multiculturalism. (vor J. Dadson,"Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations )
Clearly written and offering heretofore unexamined evidence, [The Handless Maiden] should elicit interest in a fascinating people and culture, too little known outside of Hispanism. (Barbara Weissberger Medieval Encounters )
The Handless Maiden turns the tables on the traditional history of the encounter between Christians and Moslems in southern Spain. (Helen Rawlings English Historical Review )
Mary Elizabeth Perry's work has considerably enriched our understanding of how gender possibly can inform our evaluation of Morisco identities. (Debra Blumenthal Renaissance Quarterly )
A book of compelling interest. . . . [T]his book is an insightful and worthwhile exploration of the intersection of religion and politics in early modern Spain. (Mary Coleman Reviews in Religion and Theology )
This is a rare, sympathetic look into the lives of the Moriscos--those Muslims and their descendants who remained in Spain after the completion of the Spanish Christian reconquest in 1492 and who were then forcibly baptized. . . . Perry is the first author to devote a book to Morisco women, and she succeeds by letting them speak for themselves. (Robert W. Lebling Saudi Aramco World ) This wonderful book presents a novel and insightful reading of an important part of Morisco history, and does so in a clear and engaging way. Focusing on a series of watershed events for Morisco life in southwestern Spain, the author addresses topics of great importance to historians of early modern Spain and Europe while also offering valuable insights to readers more interested in the modern era. Her intersecting of the Moriscas' history into the wider history of Muslim life and Spanish society is remarkable. (Teofilo F. Ruiz, University of California, Los Angeles, author of "From Heaven to Earth: The Reordering of Castilian Society, 1150-1350" ) --This text refers to the edition.
