It touches lightly on Islam and the Jewish community as well. Similar to Convivencia by Vivian Mann; which deals more with the Art as a comparative endpoint or the work by Dobbs; et al; The Arts of Intimacy; that extends into Literature and history a bit more; this work is complementary; as if viewed from an entirely different direction. This work deals with the opportunities for cultural contact outside of the Art world itself. It deals with acquisitions or loans of Church materials or Christian art work which may have informed the taste of local Jewish communities or patrons and the assistance opportunities that may be seen to have been created for work shared by differing artists from differing communities. It is well worth addition to the works cited in that regard.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Astonishingly vivid evocation of the Middle AgesBy P. SternThis book is a triumph of historical recreation. Like an artist working in mosaic; Schatzmiller has assembled a vast number of tesserae that together make up a portrait of the economic and artistic relations between Jews and Christians in the Middle Ages. I originally thought that the book would focus on stylistic borrowings from Christian art by Jewish artists and craftsmen. While Shatzmiller does address this topic; he also covers many more fascinating areas -- such as the taking in by Jewish pawnbrokers of Christian religious items; the evolution of Jewish prohibitions on depicting the human figure; and the hiring of Christian artists to work on Jewish artworks (and vice versa). Shatzmillers book requires some patience because he tends to bring individual manuscripts to the forefront of his analysis (frequently citing the location of archival collections and even call numbers in his text); however; those who stick with his careful analysis will be rewarded with subtle and revealing glimpses into the complex cultural interaction that characterized medieval life. I particularly liked Shatzmillers illuminating distinction between the harsh theory and the somewhat more moderate practice of Christian doctrine relating to the Jews -- what he terms the "bark" versus the "bite" (p. 151). This is a notion that ought to have wide applicability in the study of minority-majority relations everywhere.Shatzmillers book reminded me of the wonderful work of Ruth Mellinkoff -- although she is more interested in iconography rather than trading and cross-cultural influences. But both authors display the same sensitivity to detail; expert judgment; and creative ability to make connections between disparate ideas. I highly recommend this book and thank Shatzmiller for excavating so many hidden details of the past.There are more than the usual number of typographical errors in this book; but given the complexity of the sources; I guess we cant criticize Princeton U. Press too much!
