Klappentext zu „The "Sacrifice of Isaac" in Spanish and Sephardic Balladry “
The focus of this book is the treatment of the Akedah (Genesis 22:1-19) in the Romanceros of Spain, Portugal and the Judeo-Spanish communities in exile. The author demonstrates how the midrashic tradition has had a significant impact not only on the oral repertoire of the Sephardic Jews but also on contemporary Spanish versions of the ballad known as El sacrificio de Isaac. This fascinating study traces the evolution of a 16th-century text into three modern-day branches, and examines how each has reflected the society and culture of its transmitters. In the final chapter, the author explores the theory that the Peninsular version may have been preserved by Crypto-Jews and conversos through the centuries as a powerful symbol of their destiny.

Pressezitat
"Dr. Barugel's work is significant in that he brings to the study of Judeo-Spanish folk poetry a thorough knowledge of rabbinical writings and midrashic commentary. He has been able to show that such religious traditions have had a significant impact on the oral repertoire of the Sephardim. This pathfinding book makes an essential contribution. It fills an important gap in our knowledge." (Samuel G. Armistead, University of California, Davis)"...this is a rich, important book. In addition to discovering numerous midrashic motifs and offering excellent diachronic and socio-historical studies, it provides stylistic and literary analyses." (Manuel da Costa Fontes, Romance Philology)
