Norman Roth

Norman Roth was born in Denver, Colo. in 1938; graduated from University of Denver, followed by several years of study in Israel. He received his Ph.D. from Cornell University (Ithaca, N.Y.) and from 1976 to 1997 was professor of Jewish history and studies at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. He is now professor emeritus. Main areas of interest: Jewish history and culture of medieval Spain, medieval Hebrew literature and poetry (lots of articles, but no books yet; one is in process). I am always happy to hear from readers and particularly from students who may have questions or need advice.
