This book explores the "Golden Age" of Sephardic Jewry on the
Iberian Peninsula and its perception in German Jewish culture
during the era of emancipation. For Jews living in Germany, the
history of Sephardic Jewry developed into a historical example with
its distinctive valence and signature against the pressure to
assimilate and the emergence of anti-Semitism in Germany. It
provided, moreover, a forum to engage in internal dialogue amongst
Jews and external dialogue with German majority society about
challenging questions of religious, political, and national
identity. In this respect, the perception of prominent Sephardic
Jews as intercultural mediators was key to emphasizing the skills
and values Jews had to offer to civilizations in the past. German
Jews invoked this past significance in their case for a Jewish role
in present and future societies, especially in Germany.
