Abstract
This project examines Jewish and Christian marriage in the early modern period from a comparative perspective and aims to change the viewpoint of a history of marriage that has traditionally focused primarily on Christianity and its various denominations. The Papal States, in particular Rome and Bologna, will be the main geographical and political area of observation. Thus, the interrelations between Jewish and Christian marriages can be studied, focusing on the presence of important communities for the history of Judaism in the peninsula, with a comparative view open to Europe. The research will bring together the history of Judaism and Christianity, religious and political history, social and intellectual history, legal history, and gender history. It will cover a broad spectrum of printed and manuscript sources: from Jewish and Christian religious and legal treatises to scriptural commentaries, from judicial to notarial sources and from scholarship to literature.
