Judaism Without Jews

Philosemitism and Christian Polemic in Early Modern England

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Oliver Cromwell's readmission of the Jews to England in 1656 has traditionally been regarded as a watershed in the history of the Jews in England. As well as providing a critical account of the historiography of readmission as a definitive act of toleration, this book reinterprets Christian philosemitism of the early modern period.
