Beautiful Death: Jewish Poetry and Martyrdom in Medieval France

"Everyone knows" the story of Jews in the Middle Ages: moneylending, pogroms, blood libel, exile. Einbinder's study of Jewish martyr chronicles and songs challenges the conception you didn't know you had that medieval Jews were defined solely by persecution. She draws out an amazing amount of details about everyday life, how Jews coped practically and theologically with Christian oppression--and, not incidentally, allows Jewish literature itself to stand as proof of just how vibrant these communities really were.
