South of Sepharad: The 1492 Jewish Expulsion from Spain
Description
This compelling historical work examines the 1492 expulsion of Spain’s Jewish population, one of the defining upheavals in the history of Sepharad. It explores the political, religious, and social forces that led to the decree, while bringing attention to the human consequences for families and communities forced to choose between exile, conversion, and loss. Tracing the paths and legacies of those who left, the book considers how displacement shaped Jewish identity, memory, and diaspora life across the Mediterranean and beyond. Rich in historical significance, it offers a thoughtful portrait of a vanished world and the enduring impact of its dispersal.
