Modern Spain and the Sephardim: Legitimizing Identities addresses
the legal, political, symbolic, and conceptual consequences of the
development of a new framework of relations between the Spanish
state and the descendants of the Jews expelled from the Iberian
kingdoms in 1492 from its beginnings in the nineteenth century to
its unexpected consequences during World War II. This book aims to
understand and explain the unchallenged idea of the Sephardim as a
mix of Spaniard and Jew that emerged in Spain in the second half of
the nineteenth century. Maite Ojeda-Mata examines the processes
that led to this ambivalent conceptualization of Sephardic
identity, as both Spanish and Jewish, and its consequences for the
Sephardic Jews.
