Publisher's Synopsis
Ricerche Storiche Su Guglielmo Raimondo Moncada, Ebreo Convertito Siciliano Del Secolo XV explores the life and times of Guglielmo Raimondo Moncada, a 15th-century Sicilian Jew who converted to Christianity. Raffaele Starrabba delves into the historical context of Moncada's conversion, examining the social, religious, and political factors that influenced his decision. This historical research sheds light on the complex dynamics between Jewish and Christian communities in Sicily during the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
The book offers valuable insights into the experiences of Jewish converts in a period marked by both opportunities and challenges. It provides a detailed account of Moncada's life, his motivations for converting, and his subsequent impact on Sicilian society. This study is essential for anyone interested in Jewish history, Italian history, and the history of religious conversion.
