Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In 1971, the Israeli Defense Forces launched Operation Chameleon, in which they killed the leaders of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a terrorist group. The operation was planned by Meir Dagan, a young commander who had posed as Lebanese terrorists and met with the terrorist leaders. #2 Dagan was a stocky young man who had applied to join the most prestigious Israeli commando unit, Sayeret Matkal. He was sent to the Gaza strip in 1971, where he created the first undercover Israeli commando unit. They operated in Arab disguise to move freely in Arab crowds and reach their targets undetected. #3 Dagan was a man haunted by the suffering of his family and the Jews during the Holocaust. He dedicated his life to the defense of the newborn State of Israel. #4 Dagan was a retired general when he was asked to be the Mossad chief by Prime Minister Arik Sharon. The Mossad was losing steam, and several failures in the preceding years had dealt severe blows to its prestige.

This volume of the Documentary History of the Jews in Sicily is the eighteenth volume of the two series and concludes them. It is a monograph describing the last centuries of the Jewish presence on the island, under the rule of Aragon and Spain and a sequel to the Introduction at the beginning of volume one. It is based on the documents contained in vols 2-17 and illustrates the political, legal, economic, social and religious history of the Jewish minority and its relations with the Christian majority. The records show that the Jews in Sicily were citizens and suffered from relatively few disabilities. This was true in particular in the economic sphere. No discriminatory legislation forced them into moneylending and trade in old clothes. They engaged in agriculture and industry, trade and commerce, including international trade and shipping, and in most professions, which in turn enhanced their social status. There was as an unusually large number of craftsmen and physicians among them. The majority, however, were labourers, on the land and in town. In the fifteenth century the Jewish population reached 25,000 or thereabouts. All this came to a sudden end with the expulsion order issued by the Catholic Monarchs in 1492. Some 80% of the Jews went into exile, while the remainder converted to Catholicism, only to be caught in the net of the Spanish inquisition. This volume is provided with addenda and corrigenda, additional bibliography and indexes.

How a nineteenth-century lawsuit over the estate of a wealthy Tunisian Jew shines new light on the history of belonging In the winter of 1873, Nissim Shamama, a wealthy Jew from Tunisia, died suddenly in his palazzo in Livorno, Italy. His passing initiated a fierce lawsuit over his large estate. Before Shamama's riches could be disbursed among his aspiring heirs, Italian courts had to decide which law to apply to his estate—a matter that depended on his nationality. Was he an Italian citizen? A subject of the Bey of Tunis? Had he become stateless? Or was his Jewishness also his nationality? Tracing a decade-long legal battle involving Jews, Muslims, and Christians from both sides of the Mediterranean, The Shamama Case offers a riveting history of citizenship across regional, cultural, and political borders. On its face, the crux of the lawsuit seemed simple: To which state did Shamama belong when he died? But the case produced hundreds of pages in legal briefs and thousands of dollars in lawyers’ fees before the man's estate could be distributed among his quarrelsome heirs. Jessica Marglin follows the unfolding of events, from Shamama's rise to power in Tunis and his self-imposed exile in France, to his untimely death in Livorno and the clashing visions of nationality advanced during the lawsuit. Marglin brings to life a Dickensian array of individuals involved in the case: family members who hoped to inherit the estate; Tunisian government officials; an Algerian Jewish fixer; rabbis in Palestine, Tunisia, and Livorno; and some of Italy’s most famous legal minds. Drawing from a wealth of correspondence, legal briefs, rabbinic opinions, and court rulings, The Shamama Case reimagines how we think about Jews, the Mediterranean, and belonging in the nineteenth century.

Nissim Ezekiel was born in a Jewish family in Bombay, and with his poetic evocations of the city, gave rise to a school of poetry popularly referred to as the Bombay school. Considered by many to be the father of Indian English poetry, he has been the inspiration and guiding light for a whole generation of younger poets, including Dom Moraes, Gieve Patel, Eunice de Souza and Ranjit Hoskote. In this meticulously researched biography, R. Raj Rao traces the development of Ezekielýs poetry and life against the background of the intellectual, cultural and political climate in India over almost seven decadesýfrom the thirties to the present. We see Nissim as a curious Jewish schoolboy, a reluctant revolutionary temporarily attracted to the personality and politics of M.N. Roy, a loner longing for adventure in London, and an earnest young man writing serious metaphysical letters to his friend Solomon. The many facets of Ezekielýs versatile personalityýa bohemian responding to flower power with LSD and sex yet striving for an arranged marriage with a Jewish girl; a restless soul pursuing his interest in travel, art, literature, theatre and journalism, then settling down to a dedicated career in teachingýare skillfully brought out by Rao. The last section of the book deals with Ezekielýs increasing loneliness and his inability to recognize old friends, and finally his being diagnosed with Alzheimerýs disease in 1998. Drawing on previously unpublished letters, poems and essays, as well as discussions with the poet and interviews with friends and peers, Rao examines the desires and realities of Ezekielýs life. He brings out the contradictions that comprised it, and which, ironically, nourished his muse. Rao also provides detailed analyses of Ezekielýs poems, locating them in the context of Indian and world literature. Scholarly, exhaustive and provocative, this is the definitive biography of one of Indiaýs foremost poets.
