This book studies the Jewish community of Champagne from the fifth
century to the expulsion of 1306. It documents the growth and
decline of the community, examines its interrelationships with the
larger Christian culture, and presents a model for the study of
other communities. The economic and political consolidation of the
county, coupled with the development of Jewish self-government and
a system of education in Talmudic law, were important factors in
the growth of Champagne's Jewish community. The subsequent decline
of the community in the mid-13th century was also attributable to
economic and political factors, as well as a growing church
influence. The Jews of Medieval France: The Community of Champagne
also offers an in-depth analysis of women's place in the Jewish and
gentile worlds of medieval France. Details and comparisons of
women's status within the family and in business, and examples of
attitudes toward women in literature and law are all thoroughly
integrated into the text.
