Historia de los Judíos en España by Adolfo de Castro
"Historia de los Judíos en España" by Adolfo de Castro is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work examines the complex and often tragic fate of Jews in Spain, covering their establishment, persecution, and contributions throughout history. Through the exploration of various documents and narratives, the author seeks to provide a nuanced understanding of the Jewish presence in the Iberian Peninsula. The beginning of the text outlines the author'sintent to document the varied and often harsh experiences of Jews in Spain, focusing on their historical establishment beginning from ancient times. De Castro critiques previous scholars who have misrepresented Jewish contributions to Spanish society, particularly emphasizing their advancements in medicine, philosophy, and commerce. He articulates a commitment to truth in historical writing, asserting that his purpose is to correct misconceptions and shed light on the unjust treatment faced by Jewish communities, which culminated in their expulsion from Spain.
