Así era vivir en Valencia en 1492 | La Ciudad Católica y la Expulsión de los Judíos | Con IA
Close your eyes… and when you open them, it's Valencia in 1492. Join me as we explore the most prosperous Catholic city in the Mediterranean during the year of the Edict of Granada and the expulsion of the Jews from Spain. This sensory and historical immersion isn't a lecture; it's a journey. On this tour, we'll walk through walled medieval Valencia, enter its famous Market Square, discover the nascent Silk Exchange, and descend to the Jewish Quarter to understand, with Yosef—a Sephardic goldsmith—the true meaning of the decree signed by the Catholic Monarchs, Isabella and Ferdinand, on March 31, 1492. The Spanish Inquisition, the autos-da-fé in the square, the monitored converts, and the tragedy of the Sephardic diaspora come to life with a level of detail that will transport you back to the 15th century. You'll discover how ordinary people lived in the Crown of Aragon: the food, the rice from the Albufera lagoon (the precursor to paella), the guilds, slavery, the Moriscos, the religion that permeated everything… and how, in parallel, Christopher Columbus set sail to change the world. A story of splendor and misery, gold and ash, oranges and bonfires. 🔔 Subscribe for more journeys into the history of Spain and medieval life reconstructed with AI.
