Conversos in Spanish culture and religious reform

Yirmiyahu Yovel

pp. 261-274

Having flourished under Muslim rule, Spanish Jewry retained its vitality in the early days of the reconquest, but was already past its prime as the Christians seized control over most of the peninsula. Then, in the span of one century (1391–1492), it cracked, struggled, and was extinguished.
