ABSTRACT It follows that the widespread norm among men in Jewish communities in the middle ages was to adorn oneself with jewelry. In this manner, they conducted themselves as was the wont in general society. It is reasonable to assume that the average person did not bother himself with the matter of permissibility according to Jewish law, but Jewish sages did deal with it. R. Tam assumed that the norms of general society applied to Jewish society as well. Nahmanides, on the other hand, objected to men’s jewelry in principle and viewed wearing it as permissive and inappropriate since it negates the essence of masculinity. In reality, Nahmanides accepted the hierarchic norms of general society, but was careful to wear only a simple signet ring.

中世纪犹太社会的男士珠宝:纳曼尼德斯的方法

摘要由此可见,中世纪犹太社区中男性的普遍规范是用珠宝装饰自己。以这种方式,他们像普通社会中那样不会表现自己。可以合理地假设,普通人没有按照犹太法律来打扰自己,但犹太贤哲确实处理了这一问题。R. Tam认为,一般社会的规范也适用于犹太人社会。另一方面,纳曼尼德斯(Nahmanides)原则上反对男士珠宝,并认为佩戴该珠宝是宽松和不适当的,因为它否定了男性气质的本质。实际上,纳曼尼德斯接受了整个社会的等级制度,但是小心地只戴了一个简单的图章戒指。
