The Jews of Early Modern Venice, edited by Robert Davis and Benjamin Ravid, Johns Hopkins University Press, 2001, is a scholarly edited volume. Its strength is that it gathers essays from multiple specialists on the Venetian Jewish community, covering the ghetto's legal, economic, religious and cultural life from several angles at once. Its limit is the ordinary one for an edited volume: coverage and quality vary by chapter and contributor rather than reflecting one unified argument.
