With the now classic but dated studies by Joshua Starr and Andrew Sharf, the collective volume at hand is an attempt to somewhat fill in this void. The articles assembled in this volume are penned by leading scholars in the field. They present bird's eye views of the cultural history of the Jewish Byzantine minority, alongside a wide array of surveys and in-depth studies of various topics. These topics pertain to the dialectics of the religious, literary, economic and visual representation world of this alien minority within its surrounding Byzantine hegemonic world. 410 0$aJerusalem studies in religion and culture ;$vv. 14. 606 $aJews$zByzantine Empire$xHistory 607 $aByzantine Empire$xEthnic relations 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aJews$xHistory. 676 $a305.892/404950902 702 $aBonfil$b Robert 702 $aIrshai$b Oded 702 $aStroumsa$b Guy G 702 $aTalgam$b Rina 712 02$aScholion--Interdisciplinary Research Center in Jewish Studies 712 02$aHebrew University of Jerusalem.$bMandel Institute for Jewish Studies 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457366303321 996 $aJews in Byzantium$92549383 997 $aUNINA
