About this title

Synopsis

Translated from the original German Enzyklopädie jüdischer Geschichte und Kultur, the Encyclopedia of Jewish History and Culture includes about 800 entries that present the current state of international research on Jewish life from 1750-1950.

Review

"The contributors are distinguished Judaica scholars from throughout the world; a list of the translators cites their individual section entries. The work is enhanced by an easy-to-read type font and is illustrated with black-and-white photographs, maps, and other images. Each entry concludes with a bibliography and primary source references. This encyclopedia exemplifies the German tradition of rigorous scholarship enhanced by superb bibliographic references." -D. Altschiller, Boston University, CHOICE (June 2018).
