Abstract:
Consulting hand-written latin sources with information about the Jewish communities of the Kingdom of Aragon - specially those in the Aragon Kingdom Archive - of their articles, notary protocols “responsa”, and specialized biographic accounts has allowed me to get a very detailed look at the characteristics of jewish life, their day to day in the jewish communities, until the XV century. I have also been able to confirm that the singularity of the Jewish community of Monzon between the centuries XIV and XV, helps us to know and understand the happenings of that community, those around it, and for extension, the Aragon Kingdom between the centuries XII and XV. Translating medieval hebrew hand-written sources , the “responsa” from Rabii, “Sheelot u-teshubot”, documents in hebrew and other biographical works has allowed me to provide more historical data that complements what is already known, and to discover other details about everyday life. Livestiles are very influenced by the three human societies that coexisted, the religious influences, social realities, economic, artistic and cultural. Thus, a look, a sociological and historical study of the centuries XII_XV with special attention to the centuries XIV and XV. From the sources used one can get the relationship between Jews and Christiams, and through the Middle ages, this is a relationship of coexistence and persecution, that is, a relationship not without tensions.
