When tens of thousands of Iberian Jews were forced to convert or leave
Spain, they left behind not only a physical homeland but also a rich
world of ideas, customs, and community life. In The Jews and Moors in
Spain, Rabbi Joseph Krauskopf explores how Jewish and Moorish
communities shaped Spanish culture, and how their expulsion changed the
course of history for both Spain and the wider Jewish world. Drawing on
historical sources, he examines coexistence, persecution, and the long
afterlife of Sephardic memory.
