Three Jewish Communities in Medieval Valencia

The history of three neighboring Jewish communities in the medieval Kingdom of Valencia – Burriana, Castellón de la Plana and Villareal – is vividly brought to life in the eighth volume of the Hispania Judaica series. Each of the three sections of the study, which is based on source material uncovered in local archives, examines many aspects of Jewish life in the Middle Ages, including the political and legal status of the communities, their organization and economy. The documentation appears here in the original Catalan or Latin and is accompanied by an English résumé.
