There will be two sessions -- one on exchanges in art and architecture, and the other on religious exchanges and conversions, particularly in Medieval Lberia. In the afternoon, a keynote address will be delivered by Prof. Dmitri Gutas (Yale) on the reception and evolution of Aristotelian science in the Islamic world.
