To
be honest, is so difficult to compress information about the Alhambra
in some paragraphs. For that reason, I'm going to focus on the
differences between cultures. Throughout history, The Alhambra has
had different civilizations, which have left their marks.
On
one hand, Muslims built the Alhambra giving it meaningful sense. Not
only was the residence of the sultan, but also combine artistic and
scientific disciplines through its walls, courtyards, ceilings and so
on. Therefore, each and every little room is significant.
They
taken into consideration mathematical laws related to proportions,
simmetry,... including the golden aurea, Fedorov theory, among
others. Besides, poetry and religion are present through poems and
Coran verses. Even water and vegetation are not randomly located.
Conversely,
the meaning given by Christians was presumptuous, especially the
palace of Charles V. They wanted to show his powerful as a global
power. At least, we should be very grateful, considering that they
didn't demolish the Alhambra and its fabulous heritage.
