Title: Making history Jewish : the dialectics of Jewish history in Eastern Europe and the Middle East ; studies in honor of professor Israel Bartal / edited by Paweł Maciejko and Scott Ury.
Description: Leiden ; Boston : Brill, [2020] | Series: Studia judaeoslavica, 1876-6153 ; vol.12 | Includes bibliographical references and index. | Summary: “This collection explores the different ways that intellectuals, scholars and institutions have sought to make history Jewish. While practitioners of Jewish history often assume that “the Jews” are a well-defined ethno-national unit with a distinct, continuous history, this volume questions assumptions that underlie and ultimately help construct Jewish history. Starting with a number of articles on the Jews of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Poland and Hungary, continuing with several studies of Jewish encounters with the advent of nationalism and antisemitism, and concluding with a set of essays on Jewish history and politics in twentieth-century eastern Europe, pre-state Palestine and North America, the volume discusses the different methodological, research and narrative strategies involved in transforming past events into part of the larger canon of Jewish history”--Provided by publisher.
