Under three successive Islamic dynasties--the Fatimids, the
Ayyubids, and the Mamluks--the Egyptian Office of the Head of the
Jews (also known as the Nagid) became the most powerful
representative of medieval Jewish autonomy in the Islamic world. To
determine the origins of this institution, Mark Cohen concentrates
on the complex web of internal and external circumstances during
the latter part of the eleventh century. Originally published in
1981. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
