| Travis Bruce, a Ph.D candidate in medieval history, was recently
awarded a Fulbright fellowship for research in Spain in 2004-2005.
Bruce will be working on his dissertation subject, The Taifa
of Denia and the Western Mediterranean in the Eleventh Century,
which examines Hispano-Muslim Denia’s role, across cultural
and religious boundaries, in the economic revival of the eleventh-century
Western Mediterranean, as well as the repercussions of that
revival on Denia itself. The research will involve work in
Catalan and Spanish national archives and local museums, as
