Book Synopsis Jews and the Renaissance of Synagogue Architecture, 1450–1730 by : Barry L. Stiefel
Book excerpt: Before the mid-fifteenth century, the Christian and Islamic governments of Europe had restricted the architecture and design of synagogues and often prevented Jews from becoming architects. Stiefel presents a study of the material culture and religious architecture that this era produced.
