description André Dias de Escobar (c. 1357-1448) was a central figure in the history of the Church during the fifteenth century. While his life in the service of various popes reflects the turmoil of the Western Schism, his works and his engagement – as a participant and a theoretician – in the major councils of his day clearly express his determination to contribute to a reform of the Church. This article focuses on a neglected work of his, to wit, the anti-Jewish treatise De publicatione haeresum contentarum in Talmud, which André wrote after spending time at the court of the (anti) pope Benedict XIII in Tortosa (1414). During his sojourn, André attended the last sessions of the so-called Disputation of Tortosa, a Christian-Jewish debate on the Talmud convened by Benedict XIII. As we show by means of philological analysis, De publicatione, which has not yet been edited, turns out to be something of a treasure trove for scholars of anti-Talmudic Christian polemic literature. Compiling a wide range of both known and unknown sources, it seems to draw to a large extent on Pope Benedict’s rich anti-heretical and, more specifically, anti-Jewish library. The article thus contributes to our understanding of the textual and doctrinal context of one of the major anti-Jewish disputations of the Middle Ages, while it also sheds new light on the history of Benedict’s anti-heretical library.

Mientras que su vida al servicio de varios papas refleja la agitación del Cisma de Occidente, sus obras y su participación –como asistente y teórico– en los principales concilios de su época expresan claramente su determinación de contribuir a una reforma de la Iglesia. Este artículo se centra en una obra suya ignorada, a saber, el tratado antijudío De publicatione haeresum contentarum in Talmud, que André escribió después de pasar un tiempo en la corte del (anti)papa Benedicto XIII en Tortosa (1414). Durante su estancia, André asistió a las últimas sesiones de la llamada Disputa de Tortosa, un debate cristiano-judío sobre el Talmud convocado por Benedicto XIII. Como mostramos a través de un análisis filológico, el tratado De publicatione, que permanece inédito, resulta de especial interés para los estudiosos de la literatura polémica cristiana antitalmúdica. Compilando una amplia gama de fuentes tanto conocidas como hasta ahora desconocidas, la obra de André retrata la rica biblioteca antiherética y, más específicamente, antijudía del papa Benedicto. De esta suerte, el presente artículo contribuye a nuestra comprensión del contexto textual y doctrinal de una de las principales disputas antijudías de la Edad Media, al mismo tiempo que arroja nueva luz sobre la historia de la biblioteca antiherética de Benedicto.The research giving rise to the present results has received funding from the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (PID2020-112592GB-I00/AEI and PID2024-155482NB-I00/AEI).Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas2025info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://doi.org/10.3989/sefarad.025.1239https://hdl.handle.net/10459.1/468685reponame:Repositori Obert UdL instname:Universitat de Lleida (UdL)Inglésinfo:eu-repo/grantAgreement/AEI/Plan Estatal de Investigación Científica y Técnica y de Innovación 2017-2020/PID2020-112592GB-I00info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/AEI/Plan Estatal de Investigación Científica y Técnica y de Innovación 2024-2027/PID2024-155482NB-I00Reproducció del document publicat a https://doi.org/10.3989/sefarad.025.1239Sefarad, 2025, vol. 85, núm. 1, article 1239, p. 1-20cc-by (c) Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC)Attribution 4.0 Internationalinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/oai:repositori.udl.cat:10459.1/4686852026-06-24T12:42:17Z
