The Conference on Judeo-Spanish Studies is an international scholarly forum devoted to the study of the Judeo-Spanish (Ladino) language, literature, history, and culture. First held in Leeds in 1979, the conference will convene its 22nd edition at the Salti Institute for Ladino Studies at Bar-Ilan University, Israel, 14–16 July 2026.
We invite academic scholars, including graduate students (MA and PhD), to submit abstracts for original and unpublished 20-minute papers addressing the language, literature, history, and culture of the Sephardim after the Expulsion of 1492, from different disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives. The official languages of the conference are English, Spanish and Ladino.
