Abarbanel and the Expulsion of the Jews from Spain is a historical book written by Jacob S. Minkin. The book explores the life and work of Don Isaac Abarbanel, a prominent Spanish Jewish leader during the 15th century. Abarbanel was a skilled diplomat, financier, and scholar who played a significant role in the Jewish community during a time of great upheaval. The book specifically focuses on the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492 and Abarbanel's efforts to prevent it. It examines his negotiations with King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, as well as his attempts to raise funds to pay the ransom demanded by the Spanish crown. Minkin provides a detailed analysis of Abarbanel's political and economic strategies, as well as his religious beliefs and cultural background. The book also delves into the broader historical context of the expulsion, including the rise of the Spanish Inquisition and the political tensions between Christians and Jews in medieval Spain. Overall, Abarbanel and the Expulsion of the Jews from Spain is a comprehensive and insightful account of a pivotal moment in Jewish history, and the role played by one of its most influential figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
