'This valuable addition to the study of cross-cultural perspectives in the early modern Mediterranean involves a complex interplay of language, culture and religion. Ortega judiciously reassesses relationships between centre and periphery, pointing out that the perspectives of outlying dependencies had their own centrality. He views diplomacy and trade through the intriguing personal experiences of men and women who straddled the east-west divide. This book is particularly valuable for its inclusion of Spain within its geographical horizons. The skilful integration of macro- and micro-histories is lively, engaging and thought-provoking.' Deborah J. Howard, Cambridge University, UK
