Resumen

Este artículo se centra en tres obras hebreas en prosa escritas en la Sefarad medieval: Sefer ša‘ašu‘im [Libro de los entretenimientos] de Yosef ibn Zabarah, Sefer taḥkemoni [El libro de Taḥkemoni] de Yehudah al-Ḥarizi y Mišle he-‘araḇ [Los dichos de los árabes] de un tal Yiṣḥaq ha-Qaṭan. El artículo toma los capítulos sobre el vino, los viajes y la sabiduría como punto de partida para examinar el género de musar o literatura ética tradicional, poner de manifiesto la multiplicidad de funciones que tiene este género hebreo en época medieval y explicarlo gracias al contacto con la tradición árabe y en el contexto de la amplia difusión del género literario de adab.
