L'exemple dels jueus
Què en pensava, el catalanisme dels anys vint i trenta, del nacionalisme jueu? Com es veien les modernes obres d'urbanització, agricultura i indústria que els jueus duien a terme a la Palestina preestatal? Què van dir-ne personalitats com Josep Carner, Pere Voltas o Rovira i Virgili? Per primera vegada, un estudi demostra que el catalanisme d'esquerres del període de la Segona República espanyola va seguir molt de prop l'evolució del sionisme i del món hebreu en general, en un moment en què començaven els conflictes entre àrabs i jueus a Palestina i a Europa s'intensificava l'antisemitisme que va precedir l'holocaust. La literatura de viatges, l'edició d'obres de referència i, s...
L'Estat dels jueus
La peculiaritat d'aquest escrit clàssic de Theodor Herzl, manifest inaugural del sionisme modern, és que fou dels primers a tractar la «qüestió jueva» com un problema nacional. A partir d'una anàlisi acurada de les causes i conseqüències de l'antisemitisme creixent a l'Europa del seu temps, desenvolupà la idea que l'única manera de superar la misèria i la discriminació, la persecució i les humiliacions del poble jueu era la creació d'un Estat propi i independent, una pàtria que acolliria els jueus de la diàspora i els protegiria. A la realització d'aquesta idea dedicà Herzl la seua vida, i posà en marxa un corrent polític -el sionisme- que finalment, després de grans vicissituds, pogué reeixir amb la fundació de l'Estat d'Israel. Vet ací tant la força com les limitacions d'un text que ha marcat l'època contemporània.

Books within Books
Books within Books presents some recent findings and research projects on the fragments of medieval Hebrew manuscripts discovered in the bindings of other manuscripts and early printed books across Europe. This is the second collection of interdisciplinary articles on Hebrew binding fragments presenting current scholarship and its international scope. From the contemporary perspective, the fragments of medieval Hebrew manuscripts preserved until today, through their numbers (estimated 30,000 fragments, so more than double of the number of the known Hebrew volumes produced in medieval Europe ), the texts they carry (some of them have been previously unknown), the insights into book making techniques and finally their economic impact, are an unprecedented source for our knowledge of the Hebrew book culture and literacy as well as the economic and intellectual exchanges between the Jewish minority and their non-Jewish neighbours.
Reflections on A New Mexican Crypto-Jewish Song Book
Reflections on A New Mexican Crypto-Jewish Song Book offers close examinations of a manuscript written over a 20-year period by Loggie Carrasco, a well-known crypto-Jew from Albuquerque, New Mexico. The manuscript includes a wide range of genres: folklore, memory, ritual practices, genealogy, and most significantly poetry and songs. Although the manuscript remains unpublished, this book utilizes quotations and excepts to enable the reader to have a good understanding of Carrasco’s voice. Focusing on the main genres and themes that shape Carrasco’s manuscripts, the contributors argue that the work is both unique and illustrative of the vitality of crypto-Jewish culture and contemporary understandings of it.

Manual of Judaeo-Romance Linguistics and Philology
This manual provides a detailed presentation of the various Romance languages as they appear in texts written by Jews, mostly using the Hebrew alphabet. It gives a comprehensive overview of the Jews and the Romance languages in the Middle Ages (part I), as well as after the expulsions (part II). These sections are dedicated to Judaeo-Romance texts and linguistic traditions mainly from Italy, northern and southern France (French and Occitan), and the Iberian Peninsula (Catalan, Spanish, Portuguese). The Judaeo-Spanish varieties of the 20th and 21st centuries are discussed in a separate section (part III), due to the fact that Judaeo-Spanish can be considered an independent language. This section includes detailed descriptions of its phonetics/phonology, morphology, lexicon, and syntax.
