Tracing both the triumphs and tragedies of Jewish communities within Italy over a broad span of time, Acculturation and Its Discontents challenges conventional assumptions about assimilation and state intervention and, in the process, charts the complex process of cultural exchange that left such a distinctive imprint not only on Italian Jewry, but also on Italian society itself.This collection of rigorous and thought-provoking essays makes a major contribution to both the history of Italian culture and the cultural influence and significance of European Jews.UCLA Clark Memorial Library series ;10.JewsItalyHistoryJewsCultural assimilationItalyJewsItalySocial conditionsItalyEthnic relationsFestschriften.History.Festschriften.Electronic books.
