His Jewish faith and identity came through in a quintessentially British way. He helped secure a permanent home for Cambridge’s Reform Jewish community and guided those seeking to join the faith

So awful to hear the sad news of the passing of Prof. David Abulafia. Had the honour of discussing ideas about “sea kingdoms” with him a few times & benefit from his wisdom. Always innovative, interesting, and encouraging. What a loss to scholarship. RIP

Members of the History Faculty are deeply saddened to learn of the news of the death of Professor David Abulafia (1949-2026).

David is remembered for his innovative and wide-ranging scholarship on the Mediterranean sea and region in the medieval and early modern periods, and his warm collegiality.

De los obituarios sobre Abulafia me llamó la atención que se pudiese ser "antiwoke" mientras luchaba "incansablemente por la verdad".

📚 Si Stefan Zweig ensalzó la "identidad europea" frente a los sentimientos nacionalistas, David Abulafia hizo lo propio acuñando el concepto de "identidad mediterránea".

Hoy a muerto el profesor Abulafia pero su legado le sobrevive.
