Kaplan's discussion of the memoirs of Joseph of Rosheim and Asher ha-Levi of Reichshofen, together with the correspondence and court testimony of lesser-known Alsace Jews, provides readers with a window into the mental world of Alsace Jews as they interpreted the religious and political changes brought on by the Reformation and the period of Lutheran confession building that followed it. Where the tendency ofJewish historians is to stress the continuity ofJewish experience between late medieval and early modern in German-speaking lands, Kaplan has convincingly argued for significant changes in Jewish community life within Alsace, changes brought about by the Reformation in its chief city Strasbourg and throughout the smaller towns and countryside of the region.
