Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"Dubin's brilliant study of the cosmopolitan entrepot of goods and peoples that was Trieste breaks new ground in our understanding of Jewish life in Old Regime Europe. It demonstrates with exacting detail the extensive privileges such 'port Jews' enjoyed and the effect enlightened absolutist and emancipation politics exercised upon them, while skillfully portraying the Jews' political and cultural responses. It is a classic study in modern Jewish history." -David Sorkin,University of Wisconsin, Madison
