Quotations from Malmonides have been for the most part
adapted from Leon Roth, The Guide for the Perplexed: Moses
Malmonides (London, Hutchinson's University Library, 1947).
For the list which opens the second section of Level 111, 1 am
indebted to Professor Cecil Roth of Jerusalem, who drew my
attention to the fact that a list like this originally appeared in a
little-known work, Wolfs Jews in the Canary Islands. Roth's
version of this list appears in his History of the Marraws, by
Cecil Roth (reprinted by arrangement with World Publishing Co.,
New York-A Meridian Book).
Details of Judenstrasse life appearing in the third part of Level
III are verified principally by Marvin Lowenthal, The Jews of
Germany (New York, Longmans, Green, 1936). By permission
