A synthesis of all the knowledge acquired by earlier civilizations was carried out and, depending on the political situation, scientific research was promoted. However, this patronage was closely linked to economic, religions and political factors. Furthermore, it is necessary to take into consideration the fact that the history of Andalusian science has been studied by different methodological schools and has also been used, at times, for political and non-academic purposes.19 p.application/pdfspa(c) Casa Árabe, 2013Ciència àrabHistòria de la ciènciaAl-AndalusMecenatgeIslamic scienceHistory of sciencesAl-AndalusArt patronageinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6272792017-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
