Overview

La JudÃ-a de Toledo, o, Alfonso VIII is a historical drama in verse by Eusebio Asquerino, originally published in 1842. This four-act play explores the historical legend of King Alfonso VIII of Castile and his tragic love affair with Rahel, a Jewish woman from Toledo. Asquerino's dramatic retelling delves into themes of love, religious conflict, and political intrigue within the medieval Spanish court. The play offers a glimpse into 19th-century Spanish Romanticism and its fascination with historical subjects. Its enduring appeal lies in its exploration of timeless human passions against a backdrop of cultural and religious tensions.
