La storia bimillenaria delle comunità ebraiche in Italia è la straordinaria avventura, tanto tormentata quanto poco nota, di una minoranza (poche decine di migliaia di persone) che ha saputo radicarsi capillarmente in tutto il territorio del nostro paese, dalle Alpi alla Sicilia, dal Friuli alla Sardegna. E che, malgrado le umiliazioni e le vessazioni subite da parte delle autorità politiche ed ecclesiastiche locali, è riuscita a salvaguardare sempre le proprie tradizioni e la propria identità culturale senza isolarsi e rinchiudersi in se stessa, ma anzi partecipando attivamente alla vita sociale ed economica dei luoghi in cui si è insediata. Di questa singolare vicenda, che rappresenta un caso unico nel panorama europeo, Riccardo Calimani ricostruisce qui una prima ampia parte: dalla libera alleanza degli ebrei con la Roma repubblicana e dai secoli dell'esilio, dopo la distruzione di Gerusalemme (70 e.v.) voluta dall'imperatore romano Tito, sino al rimescolamento delle varie comunità ebraiche del Vecchio Continente provocato dalla loro espulsione dalla Penisola iberica alla fine del XV secolo. Il vero punto di svolta di questo complesso itinerario è costituito dall¿editto di Costantino (313), che, legittimando la cristianità, inaugura la lunga stagione dell'incontro- scontro tra giudaismo della diaspora e Chiesa di Roma. Un rapporto ambivalente che si riflette nella costante oscillazione nel trattamento da essa riservato per tutto il Medioevo (e oltre) agli ebrei, condannati come popolo maledetto per non aver riconosciuto in Cristo il messia, e nel contempo protetti in quanto testimoni della verità del Vecchio Testamento, secondo la lettura teologica agostiniana. Nell'ambito di questo paradosso trovano spazio l'aperta discriminazione, sancita dal IV Concilio Lateranense (1215) con l'imposizione della rotella come segno distintivo, e le ricorrenti persecuzioni, di volta in volta fomentate dalle infamanti accuse di avvelenare i pozzi per seminare la pestilenza, o da quelle di praticare l¿infanticidio ritu ale o dalla forsennata propaganda antigiudaica dei frati predicatori. Ma anche atteggiamenti di benevola tolleranza che hanno consentito agli ebrei, benché esclusi dalle corporazioni gravati da pesanti tributi e da uno status giuridico penalizzante, di raggiungere l'eccellenza nell¿arte medica e di svolgere una funzione finanziaria (il prestito su pegno) decisiva sia per l'economia locale sia per le dissestate finanze dei diversi sovrani. In questa monumentale opera di ricomposizione delle tracce disperse della presenza ebraica in ogni città, paese e borgo d'Italia, che ha come sfondo tutti i più grandiosi e drammatici scenari (le crociate, l'Inquisizione, la nascita e il crollo degli imperi) della storia dell'Occidente, Calimani individua nella ricchezza della tradizione giudaica la forza che non solo ha preservato lidentità minacciata degli esuli, ma ha alimentato un dialogo reciprocamente fecondo con la cultura italiana ed europea.

The province of Grosseto in southern Tuscany shows two extremes in the treatment of Italian and foreign Jews during the Holocaust. To the east of the province, the Jews of Pitigliano, a four hundred-year-old community, were hidden for almost a year by sympathetic farmers in barns and caves. None of those in hiding were arrested and all survived the Fascist hunt for Jews. In the west, near the provincial capital of Grosseto, almost a hundred Italian and foreign Jews were imprisoned in 1943–1944 in the bishop's seminary, which he had rented to the Fascists for that purpose. About half of them, though they had thought that the bishop would protect them, were deported with his knowledge by Fascists and Nazis to Auschwitz. Thus, the Holocaust reached into this provincial corner as it did into all parts of Italy still under Italian Fascist control. This book is based on new interviews and research in local and national archives.

In the seventeenth century, Florence was the splendid capital of the Medici Grand Dukedom of Tuscany. Meanwhile, the Jews in its tiny Ghetto struggled to earn a living by any possible means, especially loan-sharking, rag-picking and second-hand dealing. They were viewed as an uncanny people with rare supernatural powers, and Benedetto Blanisa businessman and aspiring scholar from a distinguished Ghetto dynastysought to parlay his alleged mastery of astrology, alchemy and Kabbalah into a grand position at the Medici Court. He won the patronage of Don Giovanni dei Medici, a scion of the ruling family, and for six tumultuous years their lives were inextricably linked. Edward Goldberg reveals the dramas of daily life behind the scenes in the Pitti Palace and in the narrow byways of the Florentine Ghetto, using thousands of new documents from the Medici Granducal Archive. He shows that truthespecially historical truthcan be stranger than fiction, when viewed through the eyes of the people most immediately involved.

The Mediterranean port of Livorno was home to one of the most prominent and privileged Jewish enclaves of early modern Europe. Focusing on Livornese Jewry, this book offers an alternative perspective on Jewish acculturation during the eighteenth century, and reassesses common assumptions about the interactions of Jews with outside culture and the impact of state reforms on the corporate Jewish community. Working from a vast array of previously untapped archival and literary sources, Francesca Bregoli combines cultural analysis with a study of institutional developments to investigate Jewish responses to Enlightenment thought and politics, as well as non-Jewish perceptions of Jews, through an exploration of Jewish-Christian cultural exchange, sites of sociability, and reformist policies. Mediterranean Enlightenment shows that Livornese Jewish scholars engaged with Enlightenment ideals and aspired to contribute to society at large without weakening the boundaries of traditional Jewish life. By arguing that the privileged status of Livorno Jewry had conservative rather than liberalizing effects, it also challenges the notion that economic utility facilitates Jewish integration, nuancing received wisdom about processes of emancipation in Europe.

"When the city was filled with these bonfires, he then combed the city, and whenever he received notice of some public sodomite, he had him immediately seized and thrown into the nearest bonfire at hand and had him burned immediately." This story, of an anonymous individual who sought to cleanse medieval Paris, was part of a sermon delivered in Siena, Italy, in 1427. The speaker, the friar Bernardino (1380-1444), was one of the most important public figures of the time, and he spent forty years combing the towns of Italy, instructing, admonishing, and entertaining the crowds that gathered in prodigious numbers to hear his sermons. His story of the Parisian vigilante was a recommendation. Sexual deviants were the objects of relentless, unconditional persecution in Bernardino's sermons. Other targets of the preacher's venom were witches, Jews, and heretics. Mormando takes us into the social underworld of early Renaissance Italy to discover how one enormously influential figure helped to dramatically increase fear, hatred, and intolerance for those on society's margins. This book is the first on Bernardino to appear in thirty-five years, and the first ever to consider the preacher's inflammatory role in Renaissance social issues.

Tuscany is a landscape whose cultural construction is complicated and multi-layered. It is this very complexity that this book seeks to untangle. By revealing hidden histories, we learn how food, landscape and architecture are intertwined, as well as the extent to which Italian design and contemporary consumption patterns form a legacy that draws upon the Romantic longings of a century before. In the process, this book reveals the extent to which Tuscany has been constructed by Anglos — and what has been distorted, idealized and even overlooked in the process.
