Books by Debra Kaplan

Debra Kaplan offers the first extensive analysis of Jewish poor relief in early modern German cities and towns, exploring the intersections between various sectors of the populations-from wealthy patrons to the homeless and stateless poor-providing an intimate portrait of the early modern Ashkenazic community.

Beyond Expulsion is the history of Jewish-Christian relations during the Protestant Reformation in Strasbourg, a city from which Jews had been expelled and banned.
