The author, after analyzing textual and iconographic descriptions of the medieval Jewish Passover Seder, concludes that Chretien de Troyes's Grail banquet (found in his romance Perceval portrayed a Sephardic Seder. The author proves by documentary evidence the possibility of Chretien's having been influenced by Sephardic Jewry and structurally reinterprets the Perceval in terms of the Exodus motif.
