Expanded Course Description

This course examines the transformations of European Jewry in both Western and Eastern Europe between the Haskahlah or Jewish Enlightenment to the shtetl culture of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to the present day. The approach is interdisciplinary, concentrating on the transformations in Jewish political status, economic options, national identity, gender roles, and production of aesthetic artifacts in the modern period. The rise of various forms of anti-semitism in the late nineteenth century culminating in the racial anti-semitism of Nazi Germany and the Holocaust as well as contemporary ethno-fascist movements are also examined, as are the development of various Jewish political. literary, and philosophical movements.
