EXPULSION and DIASPORA FORMATION Religion and Law in Medieval Christian and Muslim Societies 5 EXPULSION AND DIASPORA FORMATION Religion and Law in Medieval Christian and Muslim Societies 5 Series Editor John Tolan Editorial Board: Camilla Adang, Tel Aviv University Nora Berend, Cambridge University Nicolas De Lange, Cambridge University Maribel Fierro, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas Christian Müller, Institut de Recherches et d’Histoire des Textes, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique Kenneth Pennington, Catholic University of America In the middle ages, from Baghdad to Barcelona, significant communities of religious minorities resided in the midst of polities ruled by Christians and Muslims: Jews and Christians throughout the Muslim world (but particularly from Iraq westward), lived as dhimmis, protected but subordinate minorities; while Jews (and to a lesser extent Muslims) were found in numerous places in Byzantine and Latin Europe. Legists (Jewish, Christian and Muslim) forged laws meant to regulate interreligious interactions, while judges and scholars interpreted these laws. Religion and Law in Medieval Christian and Muslim Societies presents a series of studies on these phenomena. Our goal is to study the history of the legal status of religious minorities in Medieval societies in all their variety and complexity. Most of the publications in this series are the products of research of the European Research Council project RELMIN: The Legal Status of Religious Minorities in the Euro- Mediterranean World (5th-15th centuries) (www.relmin.eu). Au moyen âge, de Bagdad à Barcelone, des communautés importantes de minorités religieuses vécurent dans des Etats dirigés par des princes chrétiens ou musulmans: dans le monde musulman (surtout de l’Iraq vers l’ouest), juifs et chrétiens résidèrent comme dhimmis, minorités protégées et subordonnées; tandis que de nombreuses communautés juives (et parfois musulmanes) habitèrent dans des pays chrétiens. Des légistes (juifs, chrétiens et musulmans) édictèrent des lois pour réguler les relations interconfessionnelles, tandis que des juges et des hommes de lois s’efforcèrent à les interpréter. La collection Religion and Law in Medieval Christian and Muslim Societies présente une série d’études sur ces phénomènes. Une partie importante des publications de cette collection est issue des travaux effectués au sein du programme ERC RELMIN : Le Statut Légal des Minorités Religieuses dans l’Espace Euro- méditerranéen (Ve-XVe siècles) (www.relmin.eu). © BREPOLS PUBLISHERS THIS DOCUMENT MAY BE PRINTED FOR PRIVATE USE ONLY.

It has no respectable contempo- rary uses.’1 Judt, a historian of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Europe, is well placed to know the perils for the historian of succumbing to the sirens of iden- tity. A priori, then, it is a potentially perilous enterprise to undertake a volume devoted to Expulsion and Diaspora Formation: Religious and Ethnic Identities in Flux from Antiquity to the Seventeenth Century. How does the experience of expulsion create, deconstruct, or transform group identities? To what extent do diasporas create cultural identities bridging large spans of time and space? How do the far-flung elements of those diasporas see their link to each other and to the (real or mythicized) land of origin? The eleven articles in this volume are the fruits of a conference held at the Central European University in Budapest, 5–8 June 2013. The conference grew out of a collaboration between two research endeavors both interested in the questions of identity and legal status raised in the process of expulsion and diaspo- ra. First, John Tolan’s RELMIN project (The Legal Status of Religious Minorities in the Euro-Mediterranean World, Fifth-Fifteenth Centuries) funded by the European Research Council (ERC) with an Advanced Research Grant (ARG) for the period 2010–2015. Second, a collaborative project carried out by the Transcultural Studies Program and the Institute of Papyrology of the University of Heidelberg and the Department of Medieval Studies at CEU set up to study diasporic groups in comparative and distinctly historical pre-modern, that is, late antique, medieval, and early modern perspectives. This latter project looked into a variety of professional and ‘ethnic’ groups operating in and/or connecting two geographic regions: Central and Eastern Europe, on the one hand and the Eastern Mediterranean, on the other.2 The conference was accompanied by three field trips that presented the herit- age of religious and ethnic groups that lived in and around Budapest in different historic contexts. One walking tour followed the traces of the German, Italian, Jewish, and Moslem inhabitants of Buda’s Castle Hill; another walking tour took the participants to the nineteenth- and twentieth-century Jewish quarter of Pest, which shows traces of both tragic destruction and modern attempts at revival. 1 Tony Judt, ‘The Edge People,’The New York Review of Books, 23 February 2010, http://www.nybooks.com/ blogs/nyrblog/2010/feb/23/edge-people/ (accessed 11/3/2015). 2 For an overview see Georg Christ – Katalin Szende, Trans-European Diasporas: Migration, Minorities, and the Diasporic Experience in East Central Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean from Late Antiquity to the Early Modern Era – Project Report. Annual of Medieval Studies at CEU 20 (2014), 296–305. 8 KATALIN SZENDE & JOHN TOLAN The third excursion, to Vác and the Börzsöny hills, traced the vestiges of medieval German burghers, Slovak settlers after the Ottoman period and a modern Jewish presence. For researchers of the legal aspects of religious cohabitation, the visit to the residence of the Werbőczy family (whose most prominent member was Stephen, the author of the customary law compilation called the Tripartitum) at Alsópetény was especially memorable.3 We would like to thank the Department of Medieval Studies at Central European University for hosting the conference and to our colleagues at CEU, Tijana Krstić and Carsten Wilke for their advice in developing the program. We also thank the Central European University, the University of Heidelberg, the German Academic Exchange Program (DAAD), the Hungarian Scholarship Board (MÖB) and the European Research Council for financing the confer- ence and this publication. Our thanks also to Brepols and in particular to Loes Diercken for help with the publication. And special thanks to Nicolas Stefanni for all his work in the organization of the conference and its publication. This volume is part of a wider reflection, as the fifth volume of the collec- tion ‘Religion and law in Medieval Christian and Muslim Societies’ on social and legal status of religious minorities in the Medieval world. The first volume, The Legal Status of Dhimmī-s in the Islamic West, published in 2013, examined the laws regarding Christian and Jews living in Islamic societies of Europe and the Maghreb and the extent to which such legal theory translate into concrete measures regulating interreligious relations. The second volume in this series (published in 2014), was devoted to Jews in Early Christian Law: Byzantium and the Latin West, Sixth–Eleventh centuries. Volume 3,

  • Globalization & Crime
    Franko-3604-Prelims.qxd 9/19/2007 12:19 PM Page i Globalization & Crime Franko-3604-Prelims.qxd 9/19/2007 12:19 PM Page ii Key Approaches to Criminology The Key Approaches to Criminology series celebrates the removal of traditional barriers between disciplines and brings together some of the leading scholars working at the intersections of different but related fields. Each book in the series aids readers in making intellectual connections across subjects, and highlights the importance of studying crime, criminalization, justice, and punishment within a broad context. The intention, then, is that books published under the Key Approaches banner will be viewed as dynamic and energizing contributions to criminological debates. Globalization & Crime – the second book in the series – is no exception in this regard. In addressing topics ranging from human trafficking and the global sex trade to the protection of identity in cyberspace and post 9/11 anxieties, Katja Franko Aas has cap- tured some of the most controversial and pressing issues of our times. Not only does she provide a comprehensive overview of existing debates about these subjects but she moves these debates forward, offering innovative and challenging ways of thinking about familiar contemporary concerns. I believe that Globalization & Crime is the most important book published in this area to date and it is to the author’s great credit that she explores the complexities of transnational crime and responses to it in a manner that combines sophistication of analysis with eloquence of expression. As one of the leading academics in the field – and someone who is genuinely engaged in dialogue about global ‘crime’ issues at an international level, Katja Franko Aas is ideally placed to write this book, and I have no doubt that it will be read and appreciated by academics around the world.

  • The Edict of Expulsion of 1290, Expelling the Jews from England
    On 18 July 1290 every professing Jew in England was ordered out of the Realm, for ever, by King Edward I. Between sixteen and seventeen thousand Jews had to flee, and none dared return until four hundred years later The Edict of Expulsion of 1290 A catalogue of recorded history surrounding Jewry under Angevin Kings of England, leading up to the Edict of Expulsion by King Edward I Geoffrey H. Smith and Arnold S. Leese 1 The Settlement of Jews in England Geoffrey H. Smith There is little evidence to suggest that Jews settled in England in any large numbers until after the Norman Conquest. It was in Normandy, at Rouen, that a large Jewish community had existed since the Gallo-Roman era (see Gesta Regum Anglorum ii, 371n). William of Malmesbury stated that the Conqueror brought the Jews of London from Rouen. Thus it was armed might, not democracy, which led to England being occupied by Jews. However, Jews soon became indebted to the Norman Exchequer. An example of Jewish indebtedness is that King Richard I (who reigned 1189-1199) instructed Isaac, son of a rabbi, to pay 1,000 marks to Henry de Gray, keeper of the Jews in Normandy. (For references to Henry de Gray see Morant, History of Essex i. 95 and Landon, Itinerary of Richard I no. 451.) The first Jews to settle in England, then, were undoubtedly Jews from Normandy and in England they multiplied their number and their coins, until their expulsion in 1290. The Jews of England flourished, travelled many miles around Europe and profited through their usurious proclivities and mercantile pursuits.

  • TALMUDIC STUDIES Ephraim Kanarfogel
    chapter 22 TALMUDIC STUDIES ephraim kanarfogel TRANSITIONS FROM THE EAST, AND THE NASCENT CENTERS IN NORTH AFRICA, SPAIN, AND ITALY The history and development of the study of the Oral Law following the completion of the Babylonian Talmud remain shrouded in mystery. Although significant Geonim from Babylonia and Palestine during the eighth and ninth centuries have been identified, the extent to which their writings reached Europe, and the channels through which they passed, remain somewhat unclear. A fragile consensus suggests that, at least initi- ally, rabbinic teachings and rulings from Eretz Israel traveled most directly to centers in Italy and later to Germany (Ashkenaz), while those of Babylonia emerged predominantly in the western Sephardic milieu of Spain and North Africa.1 To be sure, leading Sephardic talmudists prior to, and even during, the eleventh century were not yet to be found primarily within Europe. Hai ben Sherira Gaon (d. 1038), who penned an array of talmudic commen- taries in addition to his protean output of responsa and halakhic mono- graphs, was the last of the Geonim who flourished in Baghdad.2 The family 1 See Avraham Grossman, “Zik˙atah shel Yahadut Ashkenaz ‘el Erets Yisra’el,” Shalem 3 (1981), 57–92; Grossman, “When Did the Hegemony of Eretz Yisra’el Cease in Italy?” in E.

  • Apostates and More, Part 2,The History Behind the Ashkenazi
    Apostates and More, Part 2 Apostates and More, Part 2 Marc B. Shapiro Continued from here 1. Another apostate was Rabbi Nehemiah ben Jacob ha-Kohen of Ferrara, who was an important supporter of R. Moses Hayyim Luzzatto during the controversy about him.[1]Here is the the final page of the haskamah he wrote in 1729 for R. Aviad Sar Shalom Basilea’s Emunat Hakhamim. R. Isaac Lampronte, in a halakhic discussion in hisPahad Yitzhak, refers to Nehemiah, but not by name.[2] He calls him .In R .אחד מן החכמים רך בשנים אשר אחרי כן הבאיש ריחו כנודע Hananel Nepi and R. Mordechai Samuel Ghirondi, Toldot Gedolei Yisrael (Trieste, 1853), p. 229, they write about Obviously, “Ishmaelite” is a .שאח”כ נעשה ישמעאלי :Nehemiah code word for Christian.[3] The story reported by Samuel David Luzzatto is that Nehemiah used to go to prostitutes, and when the rabbis found out about this they removed the rabbinate from him. Too embarrassed to remain in the Jewish community, Nehemiah apostatized.[4] Cecil Roth cites another Italian source that Nehemiah converted so he could marry a Christian woman. Unfortunately, his son and three daughters apostatized together with him (his wife had apparently already died).[5] Another apostate who should be mentioned is Michael Solomon Alexander (1799-1844), first Anglican bishop in Jerusalem. Before his apostasy, Alexander was a rabbi.[6] Rabbi Abraham Romano of Tunis also became an apostate. He converted at the end of the seventeenth century when R. Meir Lombrozo was appointed a dayan in his place. After Romano converted, he became well known as a Islamic preacher, and after his death his tomb was venerated by Muslims.

Of no less importance was what historian Teofilo Ruiz of UCLA has called the Other 1492, the completion of the Reconquista (Reconquest) of the Moorish kingdoms in Iberia, and the expulsion of the Jews from Spain by the Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand II of Aragón, and Queen Isabella of Castile.1 These seemingly unconnected events influenced the history and economy of Spain and Europe, setting in motion the exploration, immigration, and colonization of the Americas which gave rise to Spain‟s Golden Age.

Gregory, Chair Moon-Ho Jung Ileana Rodriguez Silva Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of History ii University of Washington Abstract Laboring for the Day: The Pacific Coast and the Casual Labor Economy, 1919-1933 Alexander James Morrow Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor James Gregory Department of History This dissertation explores the economic and cultural (re)definition of labor and laborers. It traces the growing reliance upon contingent work as the foundation for industrial capitalism along the Pacific Coast; the shaping of urban space according to the demands of workers and capital; the formation of a working class subject through the discourse and social practices of both laborers and intellectuals; and workers’ struggles to improve their circumstances in the face of coercive and onerous conditions. Woven together, these strands reveal the consequences of a regional economy built upon contingent and migratory forms of labor. This workforce was hardly new to the American West, but the Pacific Coast’s reliance upon contingent labor reached its apogee after World War I, drawing hundreds of thousands of young men through far flung circuits of migration that stretched across the Pacific and into Latin America, transforming its largest urban centers and working class demography in the process. The presence of this substantial workforce (itinerant, unattached, and racially heterogeneous) was out step with the expectations of the modern American worker (stable, married, and white), and became the warrant for social investigators, employers, the state, and other workers to sharpen the lines of solidarity and exclusion.
