Abstract

Jewish Sephardic communities maintained their distinctive cultural identity for centuries after the expulsion from the Iberian Peninsula. Traditions were passed on by women as mothers and cultural keepers. In Vida propia (2000) by Vicky Nizri, Esther Negrín nar­rates the story of her life, exposing how the traditions pertaining to women’s roles as im­posed in their bodies delineated the individual she became, negating her the possibility of an independent development as individual.
