Note publique d'information : "This seventh volume of The Cambridge History of Judaism provides an authoritative
and detailed overview of early modern Jewish history, from 1500 to 1815. The essays,
written by an international team of scholars, situate the Jewish experience in relation
to the multiple political, intellectual and cultural currents of the period. They
also explore and problematize the 'modernization' of world Jewry over this period
from a global perspective, covering Jews in the Islamic world and in the Americas,
as well as in Europe, with many chapters straddling the conventional lines of division
between Sephardic, Ashkenazic, and Mizrahi history. The most up-to-date, comprehensive,
and authoritative work in this field currently available, this volume will serve as
an essential reference tool and ideal point of entry for advanced students and scholars
of early modern Jewish history." -- [Tiré de la jaquette]
