The essay deals with the discussion of Tamar Herzig’s new book, A Convert’s tale. She wrote the story of a Jewish goldsmith, Salomone da Sessa, who worked for Duke Ercole d’Este and his wife, Eleonora d’Aragona in the Italian peninsula at the end of the XVth century. In 1491 Salomone converted to Christianism as Ercole de’Fedeli. Through this case, Herzig highlights several important features such as the social and religious relationships between Jews and Christians.
