Jewish Wills in Tunisia (1926-1954): وصايا يهود تونس

By Mohsen HAMLI

The only seven Jewish wills found at the National Archives of Tunisia reached the French-Tunisian government between 1939 and 1954 to seek homologation. But for various reasons, they provoked legal wrangles that took from 2 to 17 years following the death of the testator to receive the approval of the authorities and become applicable.This book exposes not only the troubles each Jewish will faced, and the hard work of talented lawyers and legal advisers to surmount those troubles, but also offers a comparative study of the wills in terms of wishes, recommendations, treatment of women, and style.
