(Studia Sephardica: Texts and Studies in the History and Literature of Spanish and Portuguese Jewry) First edition of this expanded compilation. It brings together Meyer Kayserling's Biblioteca Española-Portugueza-Judaica – the bio-bibliographical dictionary of Jewish authors of Iberian origin and of works in Spanish and Portuguese about Jews and Judaism, originally published in Strasbourg by C.J. Trübner in 1890 and the result of more than three decades of research – with complementary studies by J.S. da Silva Rosa on Jewish-Iberian bibliography and with the bibliography of Kayserling's publications organized by M. Weisz. The volume is preceded by a prolegomenon by Yosef Hayim Yerushalmi, then professor of Jewish history at Columbia University and one of the world's leading experts on Sephardic history. The text is multilingual, in English, French, German, with passages in Spanish and Portuguese. The original work from 1890 remains, even today, the fundamental reference tool for the study of the literary and intellectual production of Sephardic Jews and converts from the Iberian Peninsula and its diaspora.
