| Abstract | In the middle decades of the fifteenth century Jews were registered as local citizens in the municipal council records of individual Castilian towns. Traditionally, a citizen was recorded as belonging to a parish or parochial neighborhood within the local political community; this would exclude Jews by definition as they were designated separately as a religious caste. The study of unpublished documents related to the Castilian locale of Villalon –characterized by the economic importance of its fairs promoted by the 4th count of Benavente– in the region of Tierra de Campos during a period of general political disorder, records that the municipal council assigned citizenship to Jews in relation to their community ( aljama ) through which specific aspects of their lives were regulated, and by which the local council rather than other political instances assumed control of that community. With the help of other primary sources, these documents reveal the suggestion of personal networks in which Jewish physicians play a key role. |
