Hi! The questions 16 and 20 are the same. About the 17th question, the "jarchas" (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kharja) may be somehow related to the Spanish history, but It can't be said that they are part of Spanish literature as far as they were writen not in Spanish nor even in Spain (but Al-Andalus).
Jarchas were the base for the following pieces of literature, the language is an hispanic-arabic dialect, from which Spanish took some structures and vocabolary. It’s like saying that some early Italian pieces of literature written in vulgaria language are not part of Italian Literature: they are! Without them maybe medieval Italian literature would be different.
To say the truth, I'm not ready for a discussion on literature. Nevertheless, I find the Mozarabic question, at least, argueable. I forgot to coment that the "disaster of 1898" wasn't the loss of "some territories", but the loss of the last colonies (that's why it meant such an existential crisis).
