Sephardim are the descendants of the Jews expelled from the lands
of the Iberian Peninsula in the years 1492-1498, who settled down
in the Mediterranean basin. The identifying sign of the Sephardim
has been, until the middle of the twentieth century, the language
known as Jewish-Spanish. The history, identity and memory of the
Sephardim in their Mediterranean dispersal are analysed by the
author with a special reference to the Sephardi community of
Jerusalem and to the cultural and social changes that characterized
the late nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth
century. However, because of the crucial changes related to
modernization and the political circumstances that came into being
at the turn of the nineteenth century and the first half of the
twentieth century, the Sephardim lost their unique identity.
