Does anyone know of a source that surveys book-burnings in medieval
al-Andalus/Iberia?

There are many famous examples (the burning of al-Ghazali's works that
supposedly set off rioting in Cordoba, the book burning after the fall
of Granada, etc.), but I would be interested in knowing if there is a
single article or book that surveys these events.

Many thanks,
Dwight
