So Who was al-Jatib? The most remarkable figure in the cultural history of the Kingdom of Granada, a man who played an important role in the politics of his time. He was the last important scholar and scientist in the history of al-Andalus. A poet, biographer, historian, physician, thinker, and writer of a demanding prose, but rich in erudition and witty comments, all the different branches of knowledge he wrote about show the imprint of the great man he was. Born in Loja in 1313, member of a well established family, he had a broad intellectual education he took advantage of and which he developed with his privileged mind. He entered the court in the times of king Yusuf I as a secretary. There he served under the orders of Ibn al-Yayyab, who preceded him in the post of vizier of the sultans' court during the first half of the 14th century. Both, together with Ibn Zamrak, who became Ibn al-Jatib's disciple, decorated the walls of the Alhambra with their verses. After Ibn al-Yayyab's death, Ibn al-Jatib became the new vizier, a position which he maintained after the sultan Yusuf I died, under the latters son Muhammad V. Muhammad's was a difficult reign, and Ibn al-Jatib and the sultan himself had to live a period of exile in Morocco. He made a good use of the opportunity of becoming well-known for his intelligence in the local court. Back in Granada, when Muhammad recovered the power, Ibn al-Jatib political career reached its peak. He was all-important in the court of the Alhambra. But, partly due to his ambitions, and partly because of the intrigues of the people around him, he saw himself in a difficult situation. It became so difficult that, pretending an inspection of the western border, he fled across the Straits of Gibraltar to Morocco and never came back. When he was absent, his foes brought against him charges of every kind, from political to religious ones. Some of his writings were burnt, and, eventually, the court of Granada could have him imprisoned in Morocco. He was killed while being in prison, in 1375. He wrote over sixty works on historical, religious, philosophic and medical themes. His writings constitute an essential source of information about the nazari kingdom, its men and their history, their characters and habits, and about its geographical features. One of his works contains a valuable first hand testimony of a royal party held in the Palace of the Alhambra, describing dresses, decoration, protocol, food served and numberless curious details. It is a lively, direct vision of the palaces inner life. As a poet, besides edited works, he left us part of his verses engraved on the walls of that Alhambra he knew so well. One the poems, at the entrance of the Saln de Embajadores, begins as follows: I beat the beauties in grace and crown; down come to me the zodiac signs this section by Camilo lvarez de Morales
