    Abstract: Based on published primary and secondary materials and oral interviews with some eighty communal and organizational leaders, experts and scholars, this book both provides a comparative systematic account of the reconstruction of Jewish communal life in Germany and in Austria (where 98% live in the capital, Vienna) after 1945. The author explains the process of communal reconstruction over the next six decades, and its outcomes in the two countries. The monograph focuses on the variety of prevailing perceptions about the state of Israel, the relationship to the country of residence, the Jewish religion, the memory of the Shoah, the influx of post-soviet immigrants etc. Cohen-Weisz examines the changes in Jewish group identity and its impact on communal development. The study analyzes the similarities and differences in regard to the political, social, institutional and identity developments of the two communities, and their members' changing attitudes toward, and relationship with the surrounding societies. The study seeks to show how these developed in diverse national political circumstances and varying governmental policies.

    Abstract: The essays in Musical Exodus: Al-Andalus and its Jewish Diasporas extend beyond the music of medieval Iberia and its Mediterranean Jewish diasporas to wider aspects of Jewish-Christian and Jewish-Muslim relations. The authors offer new perspectives on theories of musical interaction, hybridization, and the cultural meaning of musical expression in diasporic and minority communities. The essays address how music is implicated in constructions of ethnicity and nationhood and of myth and history, while also examining the resurgence of Al-Andalus as a symbol in musical projects that claim to promote cross-cultural understanding and peace. The diverse scholarship in Musical Exodus makes a vital contribution to scholars of music and European and Jewish history.

    Abstract: Amid the variety of human experiences, the comic occupies a distinctive place. It is simultaneously ubiquitous, relative, and fragile. In this book, Peter L. Berger reflects on the nature of the comic and its relationship to other human experiences. Originally published in 1997, the second edition includes a new preface reflecting on Berger's work in the intervening years, particularly on the relationship between humor and modernity.

    Abstract: For the authorities in medieval Europe, dissent struck at the roots of an ordered, settled world. It was to be crushed - initially by reason and argument, eventually by torture. Jeffrey Richards examines the wretched lives of heretics, witches, Jews, lepers and homosexuals and uncovers a common motive for their persecution: sexual aberrance.

    Abstract: The fragility of the liberal democratic state after 1789 is illustrated in the history of the European Jews from the French Revolution to the Holocaust. Emancipation and hope of emancipation amongst the European Jewish population created a plethora of Jewish identities and forms of patriotism. This book takes the original approach of studying European Jewish patriotism as a whole, with particular attention given to creative literature. Despite their growing awareness of racial, genocidal hatred, most European Jews between 1789 and 1939 tended to be patriotic toward the countries of their citizenship, an attitude reflected in the literature of the time. Yet, the common assumption among emancipated Jews that anti-Semitism would fade in a world governed by reason proved false. For millions of European Jews, the infinite possibilities they associated with emancipation came to nothing. The Jewish experience exposed many of the weaknesses and failings of the liberal multicultural state, and demonstrated that its survival cannot be taken for granted but is dependent on vigilance and struggle. By focusing on Jewish patriotism from 1789-1939, this book explores the nature of the liberal state, how it can fail, and the conditions needed for its survival.

    Abstract: Die jüdische Traditionsbildung hat über Jahrtausende und über Kontinente hinweg die Vorstellung einer ungebrochenen Existenz des Judentums erzeugt. Alfred Bodenheimer legt die Wurzeln dieser außerordentlichen Traditionsbildung frei und zeigt, wie sich diese Vorstellung bis heute zu erhalten vermochte. Ausgehend von dem Konzept des Trauma-Transports macht er deutlich, dass dem ungebrochenen Erzählfluss der jüdischen Tradition immer ein Gebrochenes zugeordnet ist, die jüdische Geschichte sich als Krisengeschichte herausstellt. Der Akt des Erzählens erweist sich dabei als Integrationsfigur, die das Schicksal von Exil und Diaspora vermittelt und mit Sinn füllt. Der Autor untersucht in vier zusammenhängenden Essays die Veränderung dieses Erzählens und die Gefährdungen jüdischer Traditionsbildung vom biblischen Zeitalter bis in die Gegenwart, die nach der Shoah und der Gründung des Staates Israel vor völlig neue Herausforderungen gestellt ist.   Biographische Informationen Alfred Bodenheimer, geb. 1965, Professor für Religionsgeschichte und Literatur des Judentums an der Universität Basel, daneben bis 2008 Professor für Hebräische und Jüdische Literatur an der Hochschule für Jüdische Studien in Heidelberg und von 2005 - 2008 deren Rektor.

    Abstract: Ulrike Kolb erzählt die Geschichte einer jüdisch-deutschen Liebe, die sich immer wieder gegen die Nachwirkungen der Vergangenheit behauptet und am Ende doch an den ganz normalen Konflikten zu zerbrechen droht. Zärtlich und melancholisch blickt Carla auf ihre Ehe zurück, die als amour fou in Israel beginnt. So stark und impulsiv die Gefühle Carla und Yoram verbinden, so schmerzhaft schlagen ihnen bald Skepsis und Zweifel entgegen. Kritisch beäugen seine israelischen Freunde die junge Deutsche, und auch Yorams Mutter Aliza ist wenig begeistert von der Wahl ihres Sohnes. In Deutschland geht es dem jungen Paar kaum anders: Die viel und stolz zitierte "Aufarbeitung der Vergangenheit" scheint an der polierten Oberfläche der Realität abgeperlt zu sein. Aber die Gefährdungen des Glücks kommen nicht nur von außen. Yoram, dem leidenschaftlichen Architekten, gelingt es nicht immer, seine Gefühle von den Albträumen der Kindheit zu lösen. Und auch die drei Frauen in seinem Leben, Aliza, Carla und die Tochter Vered, haben ihre eigenen Erinnerungen, Ängste und Hoffnungen. Am Ende schlägt Vered entschieden den Bogen in die Zukunft.   Biographische Informationen Ulrike Kolb, geb. 1942, lebt als freie Schriftstellerin in Frankfurt am Main. Veröffentlichungen u.a.: Roman ohne Held (1996);Frühstück mit Max (2000); Schönes Leben (2002); Diese eine Nacht (2003).   Rezension Platz 7 der SWR-Bestenliste September 2009 "Kolbs Erzählen ist die Beschwörung einer schöpferischen Kraft der Sprache gegen ein Verschweigen und Verstummen, die doch stets die drohende Verzweiflung im Blick hält." (Beate Tröger, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 1.Oktober 2009) "Der Familienroman, der vier Generationen umfasst, geht aus glaubhafter biografischer Erfahrung hervor, szenisch, episodisch, mitreißend und von hoher Authentizitätssuggestion. Ein mutiges Buch, bedrückend und schön." (Hubert...
    Abstract: Winkels, Börsenblatt, 22.10.09) "Ulrike Kolb schreibt über eine amour fou - als hätte sie nie etwas andres getan. Sie schreibt leicht, und zart, als würde diese Liebe verschwinden, wenn wir im Buch eine Seite umblättern." (Rachel Gehlhoff, MDR, 12.10.2009) "Sprachlich und stilistisch klar und gekonnt erzählt, liegt hier ein wichtiges Buch vor mit Themen, die berühren und nicht zuletzt eine wunderbare Liebesgeschichte." (Bettina Wolf, Der evangelische Buchberater, 4/2009) "Kolb lässt Carla das alles in einem liebevollen Rückblick erzählen. Sie wählt eine feine, zurückhaltende Sprache. Ob es immer so ist, dass ein Kind aus einer solchen mutigen Verbindung so souverän mit den Lasten der Eltern umgeht wie Vered, ist nicht sicher. Ulrike Kolbs Roman weckt keine anderen Hoffnungen, als Literatur sie verheißen kann - das ist aber nicht wenig!" (Saarbrücker Zeitung, 6.11.2009) "Nichts ist hier plakativ, alles wirkt in hohem Grad authentisch, und so ist Ulrike Kolb mit "Yoram" ein so feiner wie eindringlicher Roman gelungen, der an tiefsitzenden Missverständnissen rüttelt." (Claudia Kramatschek, NDR, 4.12.2009) "(...) erzählt Ulrike Kolb mit soviel Empathie, diskreter Einfühlungsgabe und Talent zur eleganten Umschiffung aller gängigen deutsch-jüdischen Klischees, dass man zu keinem Moment das Gefühl hat, hier würde nicht auch das Leben selbst in all seinen Möglichkeiten abgebildet." (Jüdische Zeitung, Dezember 2009) "Im deutschsprachigen Raum sind literarisch überzeugende Bücher, die eine deutsch-israelische Liebesbegegnung erzählen, rar. Ulrike Kolb hat nun den Roman Yoram vorgelegt, der mit hoher Sensibiliät und sicherem erzählerischem Können die Abgründe, Gefährdungen wie auch den existenziellen Mut zweier Menschen gestaltet, die eine Ehe eingehen, in die die Folgen der Verfolgung der NS-Zeit hineinwirken. Die Geschichte zwischen einem Israeli und einer
    Abstract: Deutschen wird durch sie entscheidend mitbestimmt. Von gleichem Gewicht erweisen sich mehr als sechzig Jahre tabuisierte deutsche Familiengeheimnisse." (Orientierung Nr. 23, 73. Jahrgang, 15.12.2009) "Ulrike Kolb ist eine großartige Erzählerin, die eindrucksvolle Bilder und Stimmungen erzeugt, in denen das Leben fließt. Und sie zeigt, wie die Grausamkeiten des Naziregimes noch Jahrzehnte später das Schicksal einzelner Menschen bestimmt." (Ida Dehmer, Bücherschau, Zeitschrift für Betriebs- und Gewerkschaftsbibliotheken, 1/2010) "Was auf den letzten Seiten des Buches klar wird: Es handelt nicht vom Holocaust. Es handelt von unserer Gegenwart, in der der Holocaust langsam aber sicher vergessen wird. Genauer gesagt, die Leute glauben, sich das nun endlich leisten zu können. Gegen dieses Vergessen ist kein Kraut gewachsen. Aber es gibt Menschen, bei denen das Kraut "Vergessen" nicht wirkt. Zu ihnen gehört Ulrike Kolb." (Olga Martynova, literaturkritik.de, September 2010).

    Abstract: Although overshadowed in historical memory by the Holocaust, the anti-Jewish pogroms of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were at the time unrivaled episodes of ethnic violence. Incorporating newly available primary sources, this collection of groundbreaking essays by researchers from Europe, the United States, and Israel investigates the phenomenon of anti-Jewish violence, the local and transnational responses to pogroms, and instances where violence was averted. Focusing on the period from World War I through Russia's early revolutionary years, the studies include Poland, Ukraine, Belorussia, Lithuania, Crimea, and Siberia.

    Abstract: The first book-length study of contemporary British Jewry , Turbulent Times: The British Jewish Community Today examines the changing nature of the British Jewish community and its leadership since 1990. Keith Kahn-Harris and Ben Gidley contend that there has been a shift within Jewish communal discourse from a strategy of security, which emphasized Anglo-Jewry's secure British belonging and citizenship, to a strategy of insecurity, which emphasizes the dangers and threats Jews face individually and communally. This shift is part of a process of renewal in the community that has led to something of a 'Jewish renaissance' in Britain. Addressing key questions on the transitions in the history of Anglo-Jewish community and leadership, and tackling the concept of the 'new antisemitism', this important and timely study addresses the question: how has UK Jewry adapted from a shift from monoculturalism to multiculturalism?.

    Abstract: This unique encyclopedia chronicles American Jewish popular culture, past and present in music, art, food, religion, literature, and more. Over 150 entries, written by scholars in the field, highlight topics ranging from animation and comics to Hollywood and pop psychology. Without the profound contributions of American Jews, the popular culture we know today would not exist. Where would music be without the music of Bob Dylan and Barbra Streisand, humor without Judd Apatow and Jerry Seinfeld, film without Steven Spielberg, literature without Phillip Roth, Broadway without Rodgers and Hammerstein? These are just a few of the artists who broke new ground and changed the face of American popular culture forever. This unique encyclopedia chronicles American Jewish popular culture, past and present in music, art, food, religion, literature, and more. Over 150 entries, written by scholars in the field, highlight topics ranging from animation and comics to Hollywood and pop psychology. Up-to-date coverage and extensive attention to political and social contexts make this encyclopedia is an excellent resource for high school and college students interested in the full range of Jewish popular culture in the United States. Academic and public libraries will also treasure this work as an incomparable guide to our nation's heritage. Illustrations complement the text throughout, and many entries cite works for further reading. The volume closes with a selected, general bibliography of print and electronic sources to encourage further research.

    Abstract: Die Frage einer biologischen Rassenzugehörigkeit der Juden galt zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts als brisantes, ungelöstes wissenschaftliches Problem. Wissenschaftler mit jüdischem Familienhintergrund sahen sich vor einem Dilemma, denn sie waren zugleich Subjekt und Objekt der Forschung.Die Studie zeichnet diese wissenschaftliche Debatte nach und beleuchtet dabei insbesondere die Positionen von Wissenschaftlern jüdischer Herkunft. Wie reflektierten diese ihre Identität im Rahmen biologischer Theorien und wie gestaltete sich die Auseinandersetzung mit nichtjüdischen Kollegen? Zudem werden die Versuche einiger dieser Wissenschaftler beschrieben, Institutionen für die Erforschung der »Biologie der Juden« zu gründen.

    Abstract: In 1942, YIVO held a contest for the best autobiography by a Jewish immigrant on the theme "Why I Left the Old Country and What I Have Accomplished in America." Chosen from over two hundred entries, and translated from Yiddish, the nine life stories in My Future Is in America provide a compelling portrait of American Jewish life in the immigrant generation at the turn of the twentieth century. The writers arrived in America in every decade from the 1890s to the 1920s. They include manual workers, shopkeepers, housewives, communal activists, and professionals who came from all parts of Eastern Europe and ushered in a new era in American Jewish history. In their own words, the immigrant writers convey the complexities of the transition between the Old and New Worlds. An Introduction places the writings in historical and literary context, and annotations explain historical and cultural allusions made by the writers. This unique volume introduces readers to the complex world of Yiddish-speaking immigrants while at the same time elucidating important themes and topics of interest to those in immigration studies, ethnic studies, labor history, and literary studies. Published in conjunction with the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research.

    Abstract: For many contemporary Jews, Israel no longer serves as the Promised Land, the center of the Jewish universe and the place of final destination. In New Jews, Caryn Aviv and David Shneer provocatively argue that there is a new generation of Jews who don't consider themselves to be eternally wandering, forever outsiders within their communities and seeking to one day find their homeland. Instead, these New Jews are at home, whether it be in Buenos Aires, San Francisco or Berlin, and are rooted within communities of their own choosing. Aviv and Shneer argue that Jews have come to the end of their diaspora; wandering no more, today's Jews are settled. In this wide-ranging book, the authors take us around the world, to Moscow, Jerusalem, New York and Los Angeles, among other places, and find vibrant, dynamic Jewish communities where Jewish identity is increasingly flexible and inclusive. New Jews offers a compelling portrait of Jewish life today.

    Abstract: Germany today boasts the fastest growing population of Jews in Europe. The streets of Berlin abound with signs of a revival of Jewish culture, ranging from bagel shops to the sight of worshipers leaving synagogue on Saturday. With the new energy infused by Jewish immigration from Russia and changes in immigration and naturalization laws in general, Jeffrey M. Peck argues that we must now begin considering how Jews live in Germany rather than merely asking why they would choose to do so. In Being Jewish in the New Germany, Peck explores the diversity of contemporary Jewish life and the complex struggles within the community-and among Germans in general-over history, responsibility, culture, and identity. He provides a glimpse of an emerging, if conflicted, multicultural country and examines how the development of the European Community, globalization, and the post-9/11 political climate play out in this context. With sensitive, yet critical, insight into the nation's political and social life, chapters explore issues such as the shifting ethnic/national makeup of the population, changes in political leadership, and the renaissance of Jewish art and literature. Peck also explores new forms of anti-Semitism and relations between Jews and Turks-the country's other prominent minority population. In this surprising description of the rebirth of a community, Peck argues that there is, indeed, a vibrant and significant future for Jews in Germany. Written in clear and compelling language, this book will be of interest to the general public and scholars alike.

    Abstract: Joha has Janus's double face: On the one hand, he is innocent and stupid; on the other, a trickster. He is a cheater and is cheated. He sets traps for others and falls into traps himself; he is simpleton and liar, victimizer and victim. But as a literary figure he never dies. The nearly 300 stories in this lovely volume are from Sephardic oral literature and ethnic culture. They were told to Matilda Koen-Sarano in their original language, Judeo-Spanish (Ladino), and documented over 21 years. From 17 countries, including the United States, they come together in this first-ever collection of Joha stories to appear in English. Known in some places as Ladino, Judeo-Spanish is a living remnant of the Spanish spoken by the Spanish Jews at the end of the 15th century. Matilda Koen-Sarano, born to a Sephardic family, has devoted her life to the conservation and revitalization of this language, culture, and heritage. Joha, according to Ladino tradition, is a popular folklore character, one who is conniving yet also beguiling. He plays many roles: He makes us laugh; liberates us from taboos; makes it possible to tell the whole, sometimes painful, truth in a humorous way; and helps us triumph over our enemies through laughter. These stories have entertained generations of Sephardic children and adults and will delight readers of any age.

    Keywords: Juden ; Akkulturation ; Identität ; Assimilation
    Abstract: Like many Jews of our generation, Jon Stratton grew up in a family more concerned about assimilation than about preserving Jewish tradition. While he could easily 'pass' among non-Jews, he found himself increasingly torn between his fear of not belonging and a deeply-felt commitment to his family's past. Coming Out Jewish examines the unique challenge of constructing an identity amid the clash between ethnicity and conformity. For many Jews, the idea of full assimilation ended with the Holocaust. But the pressure to adapt to the mainstream, Stratton eloquently argues, remains powerful, especially for those with anglicized names, assimilationist parents, a history of recent immigration, or ambivalent experiences of themselves as Jews. With reference to the work of Daniel Boyarin, Ien Ang, and Homi Bhabha, among others, Stratton offers fresh analysis on a wide range of topics, including the Jewish origins of pluralism in the US, anti-Semitism in Germany, the Jewishness of sitcoms like Seinfeld, and the Yiddishization of American culture since World War II. More than a book about Jews and Jewishness, Coming Out Jewish smartly and accurately mines the Jewish experience in the West to give voice to the issues of migration, Diaspora, assimilation and identity that affect those, displaced and 'othered', around the world.

    Abstract: Here, in one compact volume, is an illuminating survey of Jewish folkways on five continents. Filled with fascinating facts and keen insights, The Jewish Cultural Tapestry is a richly woven fabric that vividly captures the diversity of Jewish life. All traditional Jews are bound together by the common thread of the Torah and the Talmud, notes author Steven Lowenstein, but this thread takes on a different coloration in different parts of the world as Jewish tradition and local non-Jewish customs intertwine. Lowenstein describes these widely varying regional Jewish cultures with needlepoint accuracy, highlighting the often surprising similarities between Jewish and non-Jewish local traditions, and revealing why Jewish customs vary as much as they do from region to region. From Europe to India, Israel to America, The Jewish Cultural Tapestry offers an engaging overview of the customs and folkways of a people united by tradition, yet scattered to the far corners of the earth.

    Abstract: How did Judaism, a religion so often defined by its minority status, attain equal footing in the trinity of Catholicism, Protestantism, and Judaism that now dominates modern American religious life? THE AMERICANIZATION OF THE JEWS seeks out the effects of this evolution on both Jews in America and an America with Jews. Although English, French, and Dutch Jewries are usually considered the principal forerunners of modern Jewry, Jews have lived as long in North America as they have in post- medieval Britain and France and only sixty years less than in Amsterdam. As one of the four especially creative Jewish communities that has helped re-shape and re-formulate modern Judaism, American Judaism is the most complex and least understood. German Jewry is recognized for its contribution to modern Jewish theology and philosophy, Russian and Polish Jewry is known for its secular influence in literature, and Israel clearly offers Judaism a new stance as a homeland. But how does one capture the interplay between America and Judaism? Immigration to America meant that much of Judaism was discarded, and much was retained. Acculturation did not always lead to assimilation: Jewishness was honed as an independent variable in the motivations of many of its American adherents- -and has remained so, even though Jewish institutions, ideologies, and even Jewish values have been reshaped by America to such an degree that many Jews of the past might not recognize as Jewish some of what constitutes American Jewishness. This collection of essays explores the paradoxes that abound in the America/Judaism relationship, focusing on such specific issues as Jews and American politics in the twentieth century, the adaptation of Jewish religious life to the American environment, the contributions and impact of the women's movement, and commentaries on the Jewish future in America.

    Abstract: Louis Rosenberg's Canada's Jews is a pioneering study of the demographic, sociological, cultural, and economic dimensions of Canadian Jewish life in the 1930s. It provides a comprehensive portrait of a community struggling with the insecurities of recent immigration, the early seductions of assimilation, and a second-class status sustained by anti-Semitism. Originally published in 1939 by the Canadian Jewish Congress in Montreal, Canada's Jews has long been out-of-print.
