This text explores the transformation in Europe from 1750 to 1870, looking at the lives of European Jews who experienced the shift from segregation on the margins of early modern society to integration in the modern nation state. The lives of men, women and children from all social and Jewish spheres are presented, and examined, with emphasis on social experience and attitudes, including cultural outlook and ambition, marriage and family life, and occupations and residence.
