History of the Jews, Vol. 3 (of 6)
Heinrich Graetz's History of the Jews, written in German between 1853 and 1876, was the first comprehensive history of the Jewish people by a modern Jewish scholar. This third volume of the six-volume English edition published in Philadelphia covers the period from the sixth century to the fall of Acre in 1291. It moves from the decline of Judea and the Jews of Arabia to the age of the Geonim in Babylonia, the rise of Karaism, the golden age of Spanish Jewry with Saadiah, Hasdai, Ibn Gabirol and Judah Halevi, the massacres of the Crusades, the life and work of Maimonides, the controversy over his writings, the rise of Kabbalah and the burning of the Talmud.
