Abstract:
AbstractAfter Aden came under British rule (1839) its Jewish community was reinforced by Jewish immigrants from inland Yemen and also from other Middle Eastern countries. Some of the Adeni Jews, most of them British subjects, entered the Indian-British commercial network and expanded it to East Africa, mainly to Ethiopia, founding commercial strongholds there. From the late nineteenth century, Jews coming from Yemen joined the existing Adeni settlements.This paper compares the reasons for the emigration to Ethiopia of Adeni Jews and Yemeni Jews, and their economic and social status under Itali

In Judeo-Yemeni, or the Arabic dialect of the Jews of the Yemen, both urban and rural, a specific lexicon developed over the ages including epithets, additional, or synonymous popular names – word coinages not current with the Muslim majority. Intracommunal Jewish appellations in the Yemen are of religious and secular types coined by eloquent poets. Religious appellations refer to Holy Scriptures and places, to the Sabbath and holidays, while secular appellations become established in daily usage. Tendentious intercommunal appellations include reciprocal disgraceful ones aiming at defiling bel

Abstract:
AbstractIn the early decades of the twentieth century, a heated debate over the legitimacy of Jewish mystical texts, foremost among them the Zohar, divided the Jews of San&#0257, the Yemeni capital, into two camps. In 1914, one Jewish faction took the other to a Muslim court. There, a Muslim jurist heard arguments for and against Jews' study of the Zohar. The resulting fatwā sheds light on this fascinating moment of inter-religious dialogue. At issue here is the extent to which the Jewish litigants framed their arguments in Islamic terms and the ways in which the Muslim jurist and his empl

Abstract:
Reports emanating from Yemen as early as the 1920s indicated that local Jews were subjected to a unique statute, known in Jewish sources as the “Orphans' Decree.” This law obligated the Yemeni (Zaydi) state to take custody of dhimmi children who had been orphaned, usually of both parents, and to raise them as Muslims. The statute, anchored in 18th-century Zaydi legal interpretations and put into practice at the end of that century, has no parallel in other countries.1 S. D. Goitein suggests that the legal basis for this religious interpretation rested on the hadith: “Every person is born to th

I should like to discuss briefly three Arabic treatises that are quite different from one another with regard to content, authorship, and provenance. They do, however, share one interesting feature. Each one survives in just two manuscript copies, both in a Yemeni hand, the one in Arabic script, the other also in the Arabic language but written in Hebrew characters. The circumstances of their survival are instructive concerning the intellectual histories of both Jews and Muslims in the Yemen, and especially with regard to the relationships that obtained between these two communities.

ABSTRACT: This article considers the place of Zionist tropes in the 17th century poems of Rabbi Shalom Shabazi in comparison with those found in medieval Sephardi poetry. Centuries after Shabazi's death, Yisrael Yeshayahu and several other Yemeni Zionists, located Shabazi's messianic poems in the literary and historical canon of Zionism. By correlating Shabazi with Yehudah Halevi and other Sephardi poets as heralds of Zionism before the establishment of the State of Israel, Yeshayahu and his fellow activists sought to determine a leading role for Yemeni Jews alongside what Sami Shalom Chetrit

Abstract:
During the age of imperialism, hundreds of Yemeni Jews settled around the Red Sea, forming a Jewish-Yemeni trading diaspora. The study examines the fate of this diaspora after the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948 and the mass migrations thereto. While the first part of the article is dedicated to the inherent contradiction between the diaspora and the Zionist project, the second part argues for their symbiosis. As the Red Sea area assumed a strategic importance for Israel, the young Jewish state relied heavily on the established Jewish diaspora in the region to consolidate its powe

Abstract: This article explores how age became racialized in the context of British Mandate Palestine (1917–48). Specifically, it charts European Zionist discourses about how Ashkenazi and Mizrahi Jews aged in different ways. These discourses, which I call “age talk,” played an important role in the court case of Rachel Habshush Ohevet-Ami. In June 1939, Ohevet-Ami, a young Jewish woman of Yemeni and Moroccan descent, disguised herself as an “Arab” and attempted to execute an attack targeting Palestinians in Jerusalem. In her ensuing trial, two questions would decide Ohevet-Ami’s fate: How old

This essay analyses the racial constructs and discursive webs that justified the separation of babies from their families, with reference to the Kidnapped Babies Affair in Israel. The discourse of hygiene and the view of Yemenite Jews as ‘Others,’ as articulated by David Ben-Gurion and other Ashkenazi Zionist leaders of Israel, are especially highlighted. The article contrasts mainstream-media framing practices with the dominance of new digital narratives.

In this paper, I consider the collection of short stories and photographs Neighborhood Album A by Yemeni Israeli author Simha Zaramati Asta. I argue that Asta contributes to a distinctively Yemeni Jewish literature and identity in Israel. While Asta could be considered a Mizrahi author, I claim that a study of Asta’s text as Mizrahi in fact erases the distinctive Yemeni elements of Asta’s writing. Instead, Asta is purposeful about her inclusion of Yemeni culture and her establishment of Yemeni identity in her text. This Yemeni culture is evident in Asta’s inclusion of the songs of Yemeni J

Abstract:
This chapter addresses the minorities living in Yemen. There is a long tradition of migration between the Horn of Africa and Yemen. This cross-Red Sea migration has led to the prevalence of mixed households of Yemenis, Eritreans, Ethiopians, Djiboutians, and Somalis. Known as muwalladeen, or the birthed, these groups are subject to covert discrimination by those who do not view them as "pure Yemenis," despite legislation abolishing the country's traditional social hierarchy. Aside from the African refugees in Yemen, there is a small population of Jews currently living under government protection in Sana'a. The chapter then looks at how the Jews were treated by local ruling authorities; the role they played in Yemen's economy; why they left the country; and whether there is a connection between the Jewish Yemeni diaspora and Yemen. It also considers other religious minorities in Yemen.
