Resumo: | Silves, known as the "Baghdad of the West" was during the Islamic period, especially at the time of the Taifa, an important city of Gharb Al-Andalus. However, later, this city lost its importance in the past, becoming a small town in the interior of the Algarve. In this sense. The research carried out for this article is part of the research that we have been conducting on the Arab and Islamic heritage in Portugal and which gave rise to the project we have been coordinating and developing entitled Routes of the Gharb al-Andalus.In this town, they were born and lived renowned poets, such as al-Mu'tamid, Ibn 'Ammar and Maryam al-Ansari, among others. Some of his poems offer a city representation with all its splendor and demonstrate the importance of Silves had in the context of al-Andalus. The architecture, the magnificence of the palaces, festivals, music, literature, not forgetting the mystical, where stood the figure of Ibn Qasi, were elements that contributed to a certain mystification of the city itself, the Arab Shilb, conquered in 713 by Abd al-Aziz and remained Muslim until the thirteenth century. Currently, the Islamic Shilb, left few traces of this legacy, especially the archaeological artefacts, the castle, the walls, cisterns, literary production, the imagery of the enchanted Moorish, survival of a past golden age, and the beautiful inebriated landscape by scent of orange trees, fig and almond trees, whose cultivation was brought by the Arabs to the Iberian Peninsula. This past late witness is the Arade river, whose waters and margins witnessed the living of the population, merchants, poets, mystics and musicians ... Oh ... if the river speak!... |

Oh ... if the river speak!...Silves, conhecida como a “Bagdad do Ocidente”, foi, durante o período islâmico, sobretudo na época das Taifas, uma cidade importante do Gharb al-Andalus. Porém, mais tarde, essa cidade perdeu a importância que teve no passado, tornando-se uma pequena cidade do interior algarvio. Nesse sentido, a pesquisa realizada para este artigo insere-se na investigação realizada sobre a herança árabe e islâmica em Portugal e que deu origem ao projecto que temos coordenadointitulado Rotas do Gharb al-Andalus. Nessa cidade, nasceram e viveram poetas e poetisas de renome, como al-Mu’tamid, Ibn ‘Ammar e Maryam al-Ansari, entre outros. Alguns desses poemas oferecem uma representação da cidade com todo o seu esplendor e demostram a importância que Silves teve no contexto do al-Andalus. A arquitectura, a sumptuosidade dos palácios, as festas, a música, a produção literária, não esquecendo ainda a mística, em que se destacou a figura de Ibn Qasi, foram elementos que contribuíram para uma certa mitificação da própria cidade, a Shilb árabe, conquistada em 713 por Abd al-Aziz e que se manteve muçulmana até ao século XIII. Actualmente, da Shilb islâmica, restam alguns vestígios desse legado, com destaque para os artefactos arqueológicos, o castelo, as muralhas, as cisternas, a produção literária, o imaginário das mouras encantadas, sobrevivência de um passado áureo e a bela paisagem inebriada pelo perfume das laranjeiras, figueiras e amendoeiras, cujo cultivo foi trazido pelos árabes para a Península Ibérica. Desse saudoso passado, é testemunha o rio Arade, cujas águas e margens presenciaram a vivência da população, de mercadores, poetas, místicos e músicos... Ah... se o rio falasse!...Editora PUC Minas2017-05-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionHistória Social; História Material.application/pdfhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/cadernoshistoria/article/view/15578Cadernos de História; v. 18 n. 28 (2017): Dossiê História e Cidades; 331-3492237-88711679-5636reponame:Cadernos de História (Belo Horizonte.
