The volume lays particular emphasis on the reversal of trends in western and central Europe in the late sixteenth century, which was followed by a rapid increase in Jewish numbers and activity, and far-reaching reorganization of Jewish society and institutions. A major consequence of these changes was a much expanded and more varied Jewish role in European civilization as a whole. The first edition of this book was the joint winner of the Wolfson Literary Prize for History in 1986. For this third edition, the text has been updated and includes a new introduction.Liverpool scholarship online.JewsEuropeHistory16th centuryJewsEuropeHistory17th centuryJewsHistory70-1789EuropeEthnic relationsJewsHistoryJewsHistoryJewsHistory940/.04924Israel Jonathan1946-258955StDuBDSStDuBDSBOOK9910467002803321European jewry in the age of mercantilism1472908UNINA
