Die Kinder der Tora: Among Believers

INHALT

Simon Schama examines the struggle of medieval Jews to preserve their identity under the rule of Christianity and Islam, dealing with discrimination and persecution interspersed with periods of toleration, protection and peaceful co-existence. Historical documents reveal how Jewish bankers, merchants, doctors, poets and artists flourished in Lincoln, Cordoba, Venice and Cairo, and he tells the story of the mass expulsion of Jews from Spain in 1492.
