Carlebach, Elisheva, 'The Turning Point: The Sixteenth Century', Divided Souls: Converts from Judaism in Germany, 1500-1750 (New Haven, CT , 2001; online edn, Yale Scholarship Online, 31 Oct. 2013), https://doi.org/10.12987/yale/9780300084108.003.0004, accessed 25 Apr. 2025.
Abstract
This chapter focuses on the moment in the Jews' history when they were given new spheres of activity and roles by three notable innovators. Victor von Carben, Antonius Margaritha, and Johannes Pfefferkorn are credited as ushering in the new Jewish convert culture. This chapter centers on explaining why the role of the Jewish converts spread out during the first decades of the sixteenth century, despite having a rather narrow theological-polemical role in medieval debates. This chapter shows that these Jewish converts soon arrived at the head of public consciousness, starting with the intellectual world until ending up in the popular mind.
