Chapters in Judeo-Spanish

Synopsis

This four-part collection discusses Jews in Spain at the outset and their transition from a Diasporic lifestyle to hiding their Jewish identity in the shadow of Christianity. Furthermore, the essays delve into the history of Spanish and Portuguese Jews who underwent forced conversion and their relationship with fellow Jews on the Iberian Peninsula and outside it. The essays cover 1500 years of Jewish history in Spain, until the Spanish expulsion. The fourth part examines various aspects of Jewish history.
