  • Benveniste and the Jews of Rhodes
    Benveniste and the Jews of Rhodes Edward Gelles Introduction My immediate family background was in central and eastern Europe, but several of my ancestral lines can be traced back to the Iberian peninsula where they prospered for hundreds of years. However, even before the Inquisitions of the late 15th century Sephardic communities sometimes came under pressures leading to conversion and emigration. The latter mainly encompassed those who chose to abandon ancient homes rather than give up their religion, but many converts (called marranos and conversos) also followed them as time went by. Their peregrinations took them in several directions, principally north to the Low Countries or east to the Ottoman Empire. In their new homes some reverted to their old religion. From the Low Countries they went to Britain and the New World or to Germany and beyond. Those who were welcomed by the Ottoman Sultans settled in different parts of eastern Europe that had fallen under Turkish rule. Among these Jews were Benveniste, of a family that had flourished in Barcelona and elsewhere in Spain and in Provence where they had manifold connections ( see Edward Gelles at Balliol College Archives & Menuscripts - Benveniste Nessiim of Barcelona and Shem Tov Halevi of Gerona and Millennial Descent from Shem Tov Halevi of Gerona). A branch of these Benveniste reached the island of Rhodes about 400 years ago and intermarried with families which had contributed to the ancient history of the Jews, whose “hither & thither” millennial odyssey took them from the Levant and Egypt and from the Anatolian coast to Cyprus and Rhodes, and thence to southern Italy, Sicily, North Africa, Spain, and back again.

  • Machiavelli's Treatment of Congiure and the Modern Oath
    Machiavelli’s Treatment of Congiure and the Modern Oath António Bento Praxis – Centro de Filosofia, Política e Cultura / Universidade da Beira Interior (Covilhã, Portugal) «In the plains of Lombardy, studying the classical examples of Sulla, Catiline and Caesar, Bonaparte prepared his attempt on the State. They were famous but to him useless examples. Catiline’s conspiracy could have no practical interest for Bonaparte. Catiline just missed being a hero and he was a seditious politician far too scrupulous and lacking in boldness. Yet Cicero was a wonderful Prefect of Police. Catiline and his fellow conspirators were carefully drawn into his net and his powerful cynicism attacked them like a modern newspaper campaign. Cicero certainly knew how to reap the benefit of all his opponents’ mistakes, of all the red tape procedure, the snares, the weakness, the ambitions and the lower instincts of the nobles and the plebs. In those days, Bonaparte willingly and freely gave vent to his scorn of police systems. He considered Catiline as a mere schemer, very unwary, obstinate and undecided, full of good resolutions and evil intentions, as a revolutionary who never could choose the hour, the place, or the means; who was unable to face the people at the right moment, a rebel wavering between barricades and conspiracy, losing precious moments while he listened to Cicero’s “quo usque tadem,” or organized the electoral campaign against the National Bloc. Catiline had the manner of a much slandered Hamlet, and seemed to be a prey both to the intrigues of a famous lawyer and to police traps.

  • Jews in the Ottoman Foreign Service Dispatched in the Romanian Principalities (Wallachia and Moldova) Until Early 20Th Century
    Jews in the Ottoman Foreign Service Dispatched in the Romanian Principalities (Wallachia and Moldova) Until Early 20th Century Bülent Şenay Doç. Dr., Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi, İlahiyat Fakültesi, Dinler Tarihi Anabilim Dalı Bursa/Türkiye [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4683-3417 Abstract: This paper deals with the Jewish diplomatic representatives dispatched by the Ottomans in the Romanian principalities (Wallachia and Moldova) during the 19th century. Throughout history, various types of representatives of the Ottoman Sublime Porte (Bâb-ı Âli) could be met first at the Wallachian and Moldovan Princely Courts, and later on at Ro- mania’s Princely Court (after 1859), respectively Royal Court (after 1866). These included what could be called “official diplomats,” but also other types of envoys, such as financial delegates. At the same time, the Sultan could choose to be represented by a special emissary sent from Constantinople or by a local resident who would serve as what we would call today “honorary consul.” Not surprisingly in the Ottoman tradition, among these representatives of the Sublime Porte one can find a number of Jews, mostly, but not exclusively, Sephardic. Surprising, on the other hand, is the fact that some of these Jews were legal subjects of other states (i.e. the Austrian Empire), but this did not prevent the Ottoman officials from appoint- ing them as their personal envoys. The paper therefore traces the evolution of this complex diplomatic representation from the 16th century until the turn of the 20th century. Keywords: History of Religions, Jews, Diplomacy, Jewish Diplomats, Non-Muslim Diplomats, Ottoman Foreign Service, Romanian Principalities.
