  • The Jews and the Expansion of Europe to the West, 1450-1800

    Open AccessPaolo Bernardini, Norman FieringBOOKJews and the Expansion of Europe…2022

    Jews and Judaism played a significant role in the history of the expansion of Europe to the west as well as in the history of the economic, social, and religious development of the New World.
