Abstract:
Criticizes the Spanish tendency to seek national roots among Iberian, Celtic, and Visigothic ancestors, excluding Jewish or Muslim influences. Hatred of non-Catholics led to persecutions, forced conversions, expulsions, and social and professional ostracism based on the statutes of "purity of blood, " weakening Spain in the fields of commerce and science. Warns against a similar trend in modern-day Israel of prejudice against Arabs.
