The research for this paper was supported by a very generous grant from the Wolf Foundation under the auspices of the Israel Academy of Sciences. The statistical material was prepared with the help of Israel Einot and Dr. Hanan Farbstein, whom I gratefully acknowledge. A conversation with Dr. Sergio Della Pergola provided the stimulus for this paper; I also benefited from Dr. Pergola's very careful reading and critique of an earlier version. I am grateful for the good counsel of Prof. Jacob Katz (Jerusalem) and Prof. Michael Mitterauer (Vienna), as well as for the suggestions of an astute associate of the Cambridge Group for the History of Population and Social Structure, and of the very careful and insightful referees of this journal. A much earlier version of this paper was read in 1985 at the World Congress of Jewish Studies.
