About this book

"This book presents a synthetic history of the family - the most basic building block of medieval Jewish communities - Germany and northern France during the High Middle Ages. Concentrating on the special roles of mothers and children, it also advances recent efforts to write a comparative Jewish-Christian social history."--Jacket.
