Epilogue. 330 $aThe reputed wealth and benevolence of the Portuguese Jews of early modern Amsterdam attracted many impoverished people to the city, both ex-Conversos from the Iberian peninsula and Jews from many other countries. In describing the consequences of that migration in terms of demography, admission policy, charitable institutions-public and private-philanthropy and daily life, and the dynamics of the relationship between the rich and the poor, Tirtsah Levie Bernfeld adds a nuanced new dimension to the understanding of Jewish life in the early modern period. 410 0$aLiverpool scholarship online. 606 $aJews$zNetherlands$zAmsterdam$xHistory 606 $aJews$zNetherlands$zAmsterdam$xEconomic conditions 606 $aJews$zNetherlands$zAmsterdam$xCharities 606 $aPoor$zNetherlands$zAmsterdam 606 $aPoverty$xReligious aspects$xJudaism 615 0$aJews$xHistory. 615 0$aJews$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aJews$xCharities. 615 0$aPoor 615 0$aPoverty$xReligious aspects$xJudaism. 676 $a305.892/40492352 700 $aLevie Bernfeld$b Tirtsah$f1952-$01357862 712 02$aLittman Library of Jewish Civilization, 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820459203321 996 $aPoverty and welfare among the Portuguese Jews in early modern Amsterdam$93917580 997 $aUNINA
