Columns and muqarnas appear in several chambers, and the interiors of numerous palaces are decorated with arabesques and calligraphy. The historian Said al-Andalusi wrote that Caliph Abd-ar-Rahman III had collected libraries of books and granted patronage to scholars of medicine and "ancient sciences". Al-Mansur was a distinctly religious man and disapproved of the sciences of astronomy , logic , and especially of astrology , so much so that many books on these subjects, which had been preserved and collected at great expense by Al-Hakam II , were burned publicly.
With Al-Mansur's death in , interest in philosophy revived. Numerous scholars emerged, including Abu Uthman Ibn Fathun , whose masterwork was the philosophical treatise " Tree of Wisdom ". Maslamah Ibn Ahmad al-Majriti died was an outstanding scholar in astronomy and astrology; he was an intrepid traveller who journeyed all over the Islamic world and beyond and kept in touch with the Brethren of Purity. He is said to have brought the 51 " Epistles of the Brethren of Purity " to al-Andalus and added the compendium to this work, although it is quite possible that it was added later by another scholar with the name al-Majriti.
Another book attributed to al-Majriti is the Ghayat al-Hakim , "The Aim of the Sage", which explored a synthesis of Platonism with Hermetic philosophy. Its use of incantations led the book to be widely dismissed in later years, although the Sufi communities continued to study it.

Another influential al-Andalus philosopher was Ibn Tufail.
As Jewish thought in Babylonia declined, the tolerance of al-Andalus made it the new centre of Jewish intellectual endeavours. Poets and commentators like Judah Halevi — and Dunash ben Labrat — contributed to the cultural life of al-Andalus , but the area was even more important to the development of Jewish philosophy. A stream of Jewish philosophers, cross-fertilizing with Muslim philosophers see joint Jewish and Islamic philosophies , culminated with the widely celebrated Jewish thinker of the Middle Ages, Maimonides — , though he did not actually do any of his work in al-Andalus , his family having fled persecution by the Almohads when he was In the book Medieval Iberia: An Encyclopedia Daniel Eisenberg describes homosexuality as "a key symbolic issue throughout the Middle Ages in Iberia", stating that "in al-Andalus homosexual pleasures were much indulged in by the intellectual and political elite.
Evidence includes the behaviour of rulers, such as Abd al-Rahmn III, Al-Hakam II, Hisham II, and Al Mu'tamid, who openly kept male harems; the memoirs of Abdallah ibn Buluggin , last Zirid king of Granada, makes references to male prostitutes, who charged higher fees and had a higher class of clientele than did their female counter-parts: Both pederasty and love between adult males are found. Although homosexual practices were never officially condoned, prohibitions against them were rarely enforced, and usually there was not even a pretense of doing so.
Very little is known about the homosexual behaviour of women. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This article is about the historical region. For the modern-day region, see Andalusia.

The traditionally held view that the etymology of this name has to do with the Vandals is shown to have no serious foundation. The phonetic, morphosyntactic, and historical problems connected with this etymology are too numerous.
