Before the mid-fifteenth century, the Christian and Islamic governments of Europe had restricted the architecture and design of synagogues and often prevented Jews from becoming architects. Stiefel presents a study of the material culture and religious architecture that this era produced.
Barry L Stiefel is Assistant Professor of Historic Preservation and Community Planning at the College of Charleston/Clemson University, where he is interested in how local preservation efforts affects regional, national, and multi-national policies within the field of cultural resource management and heritage conservation.
