Los Banū Ŷuzayy. Una familia de juristas e intelectuales granadinos del siglo XIV. I: Abū l-Qāsim Muḥammad Ibn Ŷuzayy

Abstract

These pages deal with a learned family from Granada of the fourteenth century, the Banu Yuzayy and particularly about the life and works of Abu l-Qasim Muhammad, an outstanding figure in the maliki juridical literature. He also composed a few poems on the ascetic and philosophic-moral genre (hikma). This fakih was the father of three important personages on the cultural environment in the Nasri Kingdom of Granada. They will be the subject of a number of consecutive works in the future. With this purpose have been translated to Spanish the biographies consecrated to this figure in different sources from the XIVth century to the XVIIth as the Ihata, the Natir al-yuman or the Nafh al-tib.
