Book excerpt: The studies collected here centre on the social and economic life of medieval Germany, within a broader European context. The first three articles engage the day-to-day workings of rural society: literature, verbal attack and the language of mediated settlement of conflicts lead to a nuanced view of social hierarchy, in which the meek too have a say. The next group examines some major elements of rural life, dealing with technology, resources, ecology, transport, communication and credit. In the second part, the author focuses on the life of the Jews in Germany, first charting the process of settlement of Jews in Germany, the dynamics of social stratification and household composition, and the impact of economics and persecution on settlement patterns. A case study uncovers the motives and steps that led up to the expulsion of the Jews of Nuremberg in 1498. These themes are followed up into the early modern period, when German Jewry mostly came to live a village life. The last studies deal with the economic history of medieval European Jews, including professions other than moneylending, and with the function of women in economic life.

This book was released on 2016-08-15 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of medieval Jewry presents one inescapable fact: the Jews were a people apart. No matter where or when we find a Jewish community in the Middle Ages, it was an alien enclave within a host society which was sometimes cordial to it and sometimes not. Jews were a foreign element that managed their own communal affairs, creating religions, educational, and charitable institutions, mechanisms for collection and disbursement of taxes to the host government, and various systems for internal governance and the administration of justice. The Jews governed themselves and dispensed justice in so far as possible according to halakhah, their ancient internal legal system. This legal system was the subject of devoted and loving study and careful enhancement over the centuries by skillful interpretation, by mixture of local customs, and by local ordinances, which helped the system keep pace with changing circumstances. Modalities in Medieval Jewish Law includes chapters on punitive modalities, preventive and coercive modalities, and protective modalities, as well as appendixes on "A Plea for Calm," "The Arresting Officer," and "Human Rights and Kavod Habriut" and a comprehensive bibliography. Passamaneck's discussion exposes some of the less exalted or inspiring episodes of medieval Jewish history. Some of what was done, or was proposed to be done, was cruel and inhuman by modern standards. Some of it does not rise to a modern standard of legality, but the medieval world did not run according to our rules, and necessity overrode moral idealism from time to time even among the most sensitive, learned, and pious of our ancestors. The rabbis well understood that they were to pursue justice, but justice was justice for the greater good of the people as a whole, not necessarily for the individual. Doubtless we would not often do as they did. Yet they are by no means to be faulted or derogated for their defense of their standards of public order, safety, and, indeed, decency.

Download or read book The Jew in the Medieval World written by Jacob Rader Marcus and published by Scribner Paper Fiction. This book was released on 1969 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of medieval Judaism may be considered under two aspects: what the world did to the Jew and what the Jew did for himself. Both aspects are interrelated, but not necessarily dependent. Whether the world had been benign and pacific or--as it was--hostile and cruel, the Jew would still have prayed, studied, entered professions, traveled, organized communal endeavors, in a phrase, pursued the normal activities of social life. To the extent, however, that he was harassed and persecuted, the Jew responded: he defended himself and replied to his enemies. Jacob R(ader) Marcus, Professor of American Jewish History at Hebrew Union College, has gathered, edited, and introduced those documents from the medieval literature which illuminate the Jewish community in both aspects: as self-contained society (the documents relating to Jewish self-government; Jewish sectarianism, mysticism, messianism; the inner life of the Jew; the lives and works of Jewish notables--Rashi, Maimonides, Glückel of Hameln, Solomon Maimon, among others) and as society-on-sufferance in an alien world (the Jewish situation under Roman law, under Islam, under Visigoths; treatment at the hands of the feudal and monarchical societies, the Roman Catholic Church and the reformers).--Back cover.
