A selection of objects from the first decades of the last six centuries (1500–1510, 1600–1610, etc.), drawn from each of the five institutions that comprise the Center for Jewish History. These exhibits collectively demonstrated the importance of the initial years of the previous centuries, the ways in which multiple changing forces have shaped history, and the continuing heritage of Jewish belief, life, and experience. Brief reflections on the importance of these centuries’ beginnings are offered by leading scholars. No itemized listing. |
