Cosmopolitanism and Coexistence in Ottoman Jewish History: The Case of Shopkeeper Yeuda Macha
2024
Overview
The short essays assembled here in fact show us again and again that structures and status, interaction, citizenship and law, mindset, and self-interest were highly varied and not at all compliant with a unidirectional march from separate to assimilated, from religious to secular, from disempowered to emancipated. In that context, some Jews sought \"foreigner\" status because it connected them with the colonial authority, making them subject to a more privileged court system and giving them more rights. Writing on a later period, Aviad Moreno shows how a 1982 book that Israeli Sephardi Jews wrote and published on Jewish communities of the Far East was part of an effort to push back against Ashkenazi cultural elites who treated Sephardim as desperately needing modernization.
