Saintes, the former capital of Saintonge, had a medieval Jewish community attested from the 11th to the 14th century. Present in a lively urban setting, it was affected by the royal expulsion of 1306 and definitively dispersed in 1394.

Great Book being written

This Great Book does not yet have published chapters. The chapters — each bearing its register, its epistemic status and its sources — will be added as editorial enrichment and assisted generation progress.

The days of this book

This book bears no memory day yet. The sources that document Saintes give years and centuries, never a day; we do not invent one.
