Recently, historians of the early modern period have uncovered several thousand claims Jewish litigants brought to the Imperial Court in Vienna. Kasper-Marienberg, whose 2012 book on the Jewish community in eighteenth-century Frankfurt am Main won the Rosl and Paul Arnsberg prize, will introduce some of these fascinating legal cases and explore their implications for the study of Jewish history
