This is also the case for the Jewish legal literature produced in Regensburg, as well as the literary productivity of the newly expanded center in northeast France (in the Champagne region. "'here Rashi. the most pro Ii fie medieval Jewish commentator on the Bible and the Talmud, died in Troyes in 11 OS), and moving westward to the Isle de France, the royal realm, and beyond.
