It documents the growth and decline of the community, examines its interrelationships with the larger Christian culture, and presents a model for the study of other communities. The economic and political consolidation of the county, coupled with the development of Jewish self-government and a system of education in Talmudic law, were important factors in the growth of Champagne's Jewish community. The subsequent decline of the community in the mid-13th century was also attributable to economic and political factors, as well as a growing church influence. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Jews of Medieval France: The Community of Champagne\u003c\/i\u003e also offers an in-depth analysis of women's place in the Jewish and gentile worlds of medieval France.
