This is a narrative about Jews and Judaism in Africa, from
antiquity to the present Jews have often been a marginal¬
ized minority, yet they have played a role in the history of the
continent hugely disproportionate to their numbers. They
have enriched Africa culturally and economically, serving as
innovators and middlemen, government servants and educa¬
tors. Along the way, they have been victims and victimizes,
mercenaries and proxies for others, as well as adjuvants in
long-distance trade and sustainable development While some
have converted to other religions and been assimilated into
indigenous society, most have retained their Jewish identity in
various forms. Jews and Judaism have practically disappeared
from Africa today, but the legacy of both endures.
This book covers topics such as Jews in Ptolemaic and Roman
Egypt; Jews in the western Mediterranean region throughout the
Inquisition; New Christians and the making of the Atlantic world,
including the early phases of the modem sugar economy and the
slave trade; Jews in Ethiopia from antiquity to the 20th century;
Jewish communities in the Muslim world, including Morocco and
West Africa;
Sudanie
civilizations from the 11th to the 21st cen¬
tury; Jews in the making of modem South Africa; and the relation¬
ship between modern Israel and Africa.
RICHARD HULL, New York University, is the author of several books,
including Modern Africa: Change and Continuity.
