Perani, Mauro, "The 'Gerona Genizah': an overview and a rediscovered ketubah of 1377", amb la col·lab. d'Esperança Valls i Pujol i Montserrat Hosta Rebés (AHG), Hispania Judaica, 7 (2010), 137-173.

Resum
In this paper, I present an updated overview on the “Gerona Genizah”. With this term, used in an analogical way, we mean the medieval Hebrew manuscripts reused as bookbinding in the archives of this Catalan town (Plate 1). At the end of this study in an addendum I publish the text of an early ketubah that I identified in the Arxiu Històric de Girona, whose parchment was recycled to bind a protocol. The so-called “Gerona Genizah,” was known only locally prior to the late 1990s and I reported its existence to the international scientific world eleven years ago.
