Sephardic Narratives

Sephardic narratives refer to the stories, histories, and cultural expressions of Sephardic Jews—those who originated from Spain and Portugal before their expulsion in the late 15th century. These narratives encompass personal memoirs, religious texts, poetry, and community histories that reflect their unique experiences, traditions, and adaptations as they settled in regions like the Ottoman Empire, North Africa, and the Middle East. They serve to preserve Sephardic identity, values, and collective memory, highlighting their resilience, cultural diversity, and contributions across centuries.
