Abstract

Jews and Sicily in the Mediterranean Plot: Notes and Proposals

The history of the Jews in medieval Sicily has been the object of numerous  studies in the past decades. The present paper does not intend to offer a general overview on Jews and Sicily in the Mediterranean networks, or try out new methodological approaches, but rather provides a new perspective on the cultural history of the Jews in Sicily and surrounding lands. After a short historical-critical introduction, the paper proposes to tackle three case-studies: “Between political and cultural boundaries: Palṭi’el and Šabbetay Donnolo”; “The quarter of the Jews of Palermo and the Kitāb ġarā’ib al-funūn wa-mulaḥ al-‘uyūn”; and “A letter of Labrāṭ b. Mūsà b. Suġmār and the circulation of news in a ‘Mediterranean society’”.
