Synopsis

Contributing Authors

~ENG~International scholars of Jewish history contribute to the comparative study of British and German Jewish history and thus open up new avenues for the understanding of these diverse Jewish societies.

International scholars and specialists in Jewish, German, British and European history offer this first comparative approach to the study of German and British Jewish history from the late 18th century to the 1930s. The volume’s comparative dimension goes beyond a parallel exploration of the Jewish experience in the two societies by examining British and German Jewries in equal measure and discussing a broad spectrum of social, political, cultural and economic issues.
