About the Book
This book brings together scholars and researchers to explore the history and legacy of the Jews and New Christians, using primary texts, missionary literature, and records from inquisitorial trials found in the Lisbon and Goan archives. It offers a fresh perspective on the early and medieval history of the Jews, with particular emphasis on the Portuguese period after Goa became a major power center in India.
By focusing on these primary sources and historical accounts, the volume highlights the experiences of the Jewish communities during the Portuguese colonial period. It examines how these communities navigated religious and cultural transformations while grappling with the influence of missionary activity and inquisitorial trials. This book is an important contribution to the understanding of Jewish and New Christian history in India and their broader significance in the context of global colonialism and religious interactions.
