Židé v polsko-litevském státě 16.–18. století

This synthetic study is based on the author’s extensive editorial work on the history of Lesser Poland Jews and the findings of contemporary Polish and international historiography. It gives an overview of the somewhat gapfilled sources on the history of Jews, assesses the literature and covers all the key elements of the history of the Jews within the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth: settlement, demographic development, economics, their relations to the Christian majority and government institutions, self-government, advances in culture and science, religious particularities (Frankism, Hasidic Judaism).
