Licoricia of Winchester (early 13th century – 1277) was a Jewish English moneylender. She has been described by historian Robert Stacey as "the most important Jewish woman in medieval England". She was an English moneylender, wife and mother, who despite the increasingly difficult circumstances of the Jews in thirteenth-century England, which involved regular, punitive taxation, arbitrary imprisonments, and increasing religious intolerance (Fourth Council of the Lateran, blood libel), advanced through advantageous marriages and business acumen. She appears to have had a close relationship with King Henry III.

  • Licoricia av Winchester, död 1277, var en judisk affärsidkare. Hon var gift med en pengautlånare i Winchester, och tog över verksamheten vid makens död. Från 1239 omtalas hon som bankir, och kom att bli känd som den rikaste juden i Winchester och en av de rikaste i hela England. Hon gifte om sig 1242 med David av Oxford (d. 1244), och blev ännu rikare vid hans död, då hon sattes i förvar av kungen tills hon betalade ut en arvsskatt som bekostade ombyggnaden av Westminister Abbey. Hon bedrev bankverksamhet över hela södra England, ibland ensam och ibland i kompanjonskap med sina söner, och räknade kungafamiljen bland sina kunder. Hon mördades vid ett rån tillsammans med sin tjänare Alice, varpå hennes hus plundrades. (sv)
