From the tenth century to the thirteenth, the Jews of Spain
belonged to a vibrant and relatively tolerant Arabic-speaking
society, a sophisticated culture that had a marked effect on Jewish
life, thought, artistic tastes, and literary expression. In this
companion volume to Wine, Women, and Death, we see how the
surrounding Arabic culture influenced the new poetry that was being
written for the synagogue service. The Hebrew poems here,
accompanied by elegant English translations and explanatory essays,
are short lyrics of the highest literary quality.
