schema:abstract "The reputed wealth and benevolence of the Portuguese Jews of early modern Amsterdam attracted many poor and impoverished people to the city, both ex-conversos from the Iberian peninsula and Jews from many other countries. In describing the consequences of that migration in terms of demography, admission policy, charitable institutions--public and private--philanthropy and daily life, and the dynamics of the relationship between the rich and the poor, the author adds a nuanced new dimension to the understanding of Jewish life in the early modern period."@en
