The changes that began to emerge at the beginning of the eighteenth century reached maturity in the second half. Feiner delves into how political considerations of the Jewish minority throughout Europe began to expand. This expansion is evident from the Jew Bill of 1753 in Britain, the surprising series of decrees issued by Joseph II of Austria that expanded tolerance in Austria, and the debate over emancipation in revolutionary France. The lives of the Jews of Europe became increasingly intertwined with the political, social, economic, and cultural fabric of the continent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Jewish Eighteenth Century, Volume 2: A European Biography, 1750–1800, concludes Feiner's groundbreaking study of the history of Jewish populations in this period. By combining an examination of the broad and profound processes that transformed the familiar world from the ground up with personal experiences of those who lived through them, it offers a unique explanation of these momentous events.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume explores the diverse experiences of Jewish communities across Europe, from the Enlightenment in Germany to the Habsburg monarchy in Austria. It also examines the impact of the French Revolution on Jewish life, as well as the rise of anti-Semitism in the late eighteenth century. Feiner's writing is accessible and engaging, making this a valuable resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of Jewish populations in Europe during this period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 862g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 154 x 229 x 47 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780253065148\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shmuel Feiner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44257578549498,"sku":"9780253065148","price":30.74,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1685113955948_book.jpg?v=1685281841","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-jewish-eighteenth-century-volume-2-a-european-biography-17501800-9780253065148","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
