Histoire Des Juifs Et Du Quartier Juif de Cordoue, (Paperback)

A unique narrative that combines historical analysis with reflection on heritage. The history of the Jews and the Jewish quarter of Córdoba immerses the reader in the heart of these living spaces, from the hypothetical Jewish quarter of al-Andalus to the other places where these Jews from Córdoba went. After the Christian conquest of 1236, a new, repopulated Jewish quarter emerged, whose community centered around the synagogue, and which would endure the dramatic events of the 1391 pogrom and the 1474 revolt against the conversos, before their expulsion from the city in 1483. Focusing on the splendor of Córdoba, capital of al-Andalus, "House of Sciences," also explores the figures who, like Maimonides, contributed to the Hispanic-Jewish Golden Age, a center of cultural influence that would find its continuation in the poetic and scientific vitality of Lucena. But this work also invites us to understand the Jewish quarter and the Synagogue of Córdoba--one of only three remaining on the peninsula and one of the first monuments protected by law--where layers of coexistence, conflict, and memory overlap, and whose history, far from being local, is that of Spain, the Mediterranean, and Europe.
