Friars and Jews in the Middle Ages and Renaissance

This volume deals with the friars, especially the Franciscans and Dominicans, in their writing and preaching about Jews and Judaism in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. The articles deal with such issues as Jews and Judaism in theology, biblical exegesis, apocalyptic thought, preaching, economics and art. Building on the pioneering work of Jeremy Cohen, this volume shows the complexity of Christian-Jewish relations in the life and writings of the medicants on the eve of the modern world. It will be a useful volume for understanding medieval interreligious understanding and how Christians thought of Jews during the era in question.Myers, Susan E. is the author of 'Friars and Jews in the Middle Ages and Renaissance', published 2004 under ISBN 9789004113985 and ISBN 9004113983.
