The history of the Jews in the Bohemian lands in four languages. Debate with members of the international author team.
18. 09. 2024 19:00 - 20:30
Maisel Synagogue, Maiselova 10, Prague 1
In May 2024, Bar Ilan University Press published the Hebrew version of Prague and Beyond. Jews in the Bohemian Lands, which represents the fourth language version of the unique history of Jews in the Czech lands from the early modern period to the present day, published in Czech and German alongside the English original. In this publication, nine experts from five countries share with the reader their previous research based on new archival research and a different perspective on Jewish history. Their primary focus is not the history of state policy toward Jews, but the impact that the specific legal, religious, and social status of Jews in society had on individual Jewish communities, Jewish families and individuals, and their relations with their neighbours. The book is also accompanied by a unique demographic appendix on selected Jewish communities, prepared by Lenka Matušíková and Helena Klímová. Most of the authors will take part in the debate, including Benjamin Frommer, Ines Koeltzsch, Martina Niedhammer, Michal Frankl, Michael Miller and Kateřina Čapková. The moderator will be Hebraist Pavel Sládek from the Department of Middle Eastern Studies at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University. The debate will be held in English and will be simultaneously interpreted.
