Arnaldo Momigliano's scholarship, deeply rooted in his Jewish identity, is explored through twenty-six essays that cover both ancient and modern themes. The first part focuses on ancient and medieval Judaism, discussing topics like Hellenism's interaction with Judaism and the historical figure Flavius Josephus.
