This fourth volume of the English edition of Heinrich Graetz's History of the Jews, published by the Jewish Publication Society of America, runs from the rise of the Kabbalah around 1270 to the settlement of Marranos in Holland in the early seventeenth century. Graetz covers the expulsion of the Jews from France, the scholars of Provence and Spain, the massacres during the Black Death, the disputation at Tortosa, the persecutions led by Capistrano, the Spanish Inquisition and the expulsions from Spain and Portugal in the 1490s. Later chapters follow the exiles to Italy, Turkey, Poland and Amsterdam, the Reuchlin controversy over the Talmud and the rise of messianic movements. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
