venice's levantine synagogue was built in 1541 for use by wealthy sephardim coming from what's today palestine, lebanon, and syria. the synagogue is located in venice's jewish ghetto, where italian, sephardic, and ashkenazi jews were sequestered. all of venice's synagogues were forced to close in 1917 to avoid an austro-hungarian invasion and remain inactive today.

Paul Cantor's Shakespeare and Politics lecture series is so, so good. I'm watching his Othello videos and atm he's contending the name "Iago" was derived from "Santiago the Moorslayer", a much lauded reconquistador, one who retook Spain for Christendom. His argument seems to be that Iago causes Othello's downfall by Christianizing him, turning an epic hero of Homer (the mythic Greeks are slurred into the Turks) into a doubting figure convinced of the world's/women's corruption, like Hamlet. Fascinating stuff, and as good an intro as any to how the subject of religious conversion is handled in fiction.

One of the most famous places is referred to as the "Alleppy Venice of the East" in the state of Kerala. Alleppey is renowned for its intricate backwater network, which consists of a vast network of canals, lagoons, and lakes. These waterways are used for transportation, fishing, and are also a popular tourist attraction. The presence of traditional houseboats, known as "kettuvallams," adds to the Venice-like ambiance of the place. It's important to note that the term "Venice of the East" is more of a poetic or marketing description rather than an official designation. It's used to convey the unique beauty and charm of these places, highlighting their water-centric landscapes and architectural splendour reminiscent of Venice.
