PIECHOTKA Maria and Kazimierz, Oppidum Judaeorum. Jews in the urban space of the former Republic of Poland

In the history of the two-thousand-year-old diaspora - the eight-hundred-year uninterrupted Jewish presence in the lands of first the Piast monarchy, then the Polish-Lithuanian state of the Jagiellons and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth - was of special significance. Equipped with the privileges of the rulers and their own self-government, the Jews constituted a kind of separate state. Their presence found its expression in the spatial structure. Jewish streets, districts, "cities" were created.

A detailed, richly illustrated study - in addition to the text, it includes engravings and plans of Jewish districts in the listed cities.
