Description:
In the 17th century, descendants of forcibly baptized Jews (conversos) fled the Iberian Inquisitions to settle in Amsterdam, a city renowned for its commercial ties and religious tolerance. Miriam Bodian reconstructs the fascinating story of these Portuguese immigrants -- merchants, professionals, and intellectuals, for the most part -- who reasserted their Judaism while maintaining their Iberian heritage.
