  • The Toledo Branding As Touristic Promotion Example of Heritage Cities by Marta Rico Jerez, Ph.D
    Global Journal of Management and Business Research: F Real Estate, Event and Tourism Management Volume 18 Issue 1 Version 1.0 Year 2018 Type: Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal Publisher: Global Journals Inc. (USA) Online ISSN: 2249-4588 & Print ISSN: 0975-5853 The Toledo Branding as Touristic Promotion Example of Heritage Cities By Marta Rico Jerez, Ph.D Abstract- The main purpose of this research was to analyse how branding affects the promotion of Heritage Cities, taking Toledo as an example. In order to reach this objective, the specifics goals were: To know how the city of Toledo creates its branding, to determine how the communication influences the city’s international positioning and to explain why branding is a basic instrument for attracting tourists to one World Heritage City. These goals were achieved through a qualitative methodology and with exploratory, explanatory and content analysis. At the same time, this methodology allowed us to conclude that the city of Toledo added event management as a communication tool, hence organized different events in accordance with values such as culture, gastronomy, religion and leisure. These events were spread, fundamentally, in social media and in international tourism exhibitions. Thanks to this reinforcement, Toledo has overcome a classic problem, the few overnight stays due to its nearness to Madrid and, above all, it has reached an international positioning. Keywords: heritage cities, toledo brand, touristic events, international positioning, touristic communication, place branding, place marketing, touristic promotion.

  • 1492 Reconsidered: Religious and Social Change in Fifteenth Century Ávila
    1492 RECONSIDERED: RELIGIOUS AND SOCIAL CHANGE IN FIFTEENTH CENTURY ÁVILA by Carolyn Salomons A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland May 2014 © 2014 Carolyn Salomons All Rights Reserved Abstract This dissertation is an assessment of the impact of the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492 on the city of Ávila, in northwestern Castile. The expulsion was the culmination of a series of policies set forth by Isabel I of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon regarding Jewish-Christian relations. The monarchs invoked these policies in order to bolster the faith and religious praxis of Catholics in the kingdoms, especially those Catholics newly converted from Judaism. My work shows how the implementation of these strategies began to fracture the heretofore relatively convivial relations between the confessional groups residing in Ávila. A key component of the Crown’s policies was the creation of a Jewish quarter in the city, where previously, Jews had lived wherever they chose. This transformation of a previously shared civic place to one demarcated clearly by religious affiliation, i.e. the creation of both Jewish and Christian space, had a visceral impact on how Christians related to their former neighbors, and hostilities between the two communities increased in the closing decades of the fifteenth century. Yet at the same time, Jewish appeals to the Crown for assistance in the face of harassment and persecution were almost always answered positively, with the Crown intervening several times on behalf of their Jewish subjects. This seemingly incongruous attitude reveals a key component in the relationship between the Crown and Jews: the “royal alliance.” My work also details how invoking that alliance came at the expense of the horizontal alliances between Abulense Jews and Christians, and only fostered antagonism between the confessional groups.

    SEPHARDIC SPAIN Led by Professor Yale Strom & Elizabeth Schwartz March 2022 (As of 5/12/21) Jewish history in Spain is filled with contradictions. There is tragedy here, but there are also traces of former glories during the 1,000 years before the inquisition – these were large scale Jewish communities that prospered for long periods. We will delve into the past, enjoy unforgettable musical presentations created by Prof. Yale Strom and Elizabeth Schwartz, as well as reach out to the nascent Jewish communities of today to hear their struggles, and their successes. With the Spanish government opening the door to citizenship for Jews with Spanish roots, and the opening of new centers of Jewish culture, there has never been a better time to visit Spain! Day 1: Sunday, March 27, 2022: DEPARTURE TO SPAIN • We depart the United States on our overnight flight to Madrid, Spain. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 2: Monday, March 28, 2022: WELCOME TO MADRID! • We arrive in Madrid and are met by an Ayelet Tours representative who will assist us through customs. • We begin our journey with a visit to the impressive Royal Palace, followed by stops in two of Europe’s most impressive squares; Plaza Mayor, with arts, crafts and chic boutiques under its arcades, as well as the Spanish version of Times Square, Puerta del Sol. • We continue to the “Centro”, which was founded in 2006 as a joint effort of the Spanish Government’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the regional Madrid governing body and the Madrid City Council. Its mission is to “deepen the study of the legacy of Sephardic culture as a living part of Spanish culture, as well as foster greater knowledge of Jewish culture within Spanish society.” It regularly holds art exhibitions and concerts.
