A radical revision and enlargement of Meyer Reinhold's earlier sourcebook, Diaspora, this comprehensive work is a representative sourcebook for the study of Jewish history during the period from Alexander the Great to Justinian, with emphasis on the contacts between Jews and non-Jews. Photos.
This comprehensive treasury of sources on Judaism in the ancient period will be valued and used by students, scholars, and general readers who are interested in Jewish history, classical studies, or the origins of Christianity.
Two of the world's leading authorities on the classical period bring together an amazing variety of ancient sources in an accessible and interesting way. Included are helpful introductions, a glossary, maps, illustrations, and other aids for reading and research.
This book includes the most comprehensive coverage available of sources in the area of anti-Semitism and (what is usually more neglected) philo-Semitism. It coordinates literacy, epigraphical, papyrological, and numismatic evidence.
Feldman, Louis H.
