Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"This collection of essays by an international group of scholars is organized around the theme of 'Jewish identities, ' but transcends its original goal, making a fine joint contribution to the historiography of Iberian Judaism and Jewish-Christian-Muslim relations in the late Middle Ages." - "The Medieval Review" "Highly focused and insightful." - "Journal of Jewish Studies"

Reseña del editor:

Medieval Iberia offers one of the few examples of coexistence over an extended period of time between Jews, Muslims, and Christians in pre-modern Europe. Taking the Jewish community as a focal point, this book thoroughly explores the various "borders"-geographical divides, religious affiliations, gender boundaries, genre divisions-that ruled the lives and intellectual production of late medieval Jews. By shedding new light on the ways in which these boundaries generated the Jewish communities' multiple, overlapping, and conflicting identities, this book breaks new ground in the study of cultural exchange in the Middle Ages.
