This book tells the story of the Sephardic Jews from their origins in the Iberian Peninsula to their diaspora throughout the Mediterranean after the expulsion decree of 1492. It analyzes their cultural flourishing in the Middle Ages, their dispersion, and the challenges they faced in subsequent centuries, including genocide and displacement, without losing the memory of their former greatness. The work offers a comprehensive view of the history of the Sephardim, from Toledo to Salonica.
