Scholars look back at 70 years of German-Jewish historiography in a monthly series
As we look back at the last 70 years of German-Jewish historiography since the founding of the Leo Baeck Institute, LBI presents a series of seven events focusing on the most important topics in German Jewish history. Each generation of historians witnesses the appearance of different approaches to historical writing. After decades of focusing on the main political events in German-Jewish history and biographies of political leaders, there has been a turn to microhistory, the role of common people, women and children, minorities, stories dominated by struggles and failures, etc. In the new series, the LBI will present a comprehensive view of seven overarching topics in German Jewish history and ask how their historiography has changed over the decades.
These events will be a monthly series of online webinars, occurring on Wednesdays at 12:00 PM Eastern time. The series will be as follows:
May 21: Philipp Nielsen on politics
June 11: Magda Teter on early modern German-Jewish history
July 30: Leora Batnitzky on religion in German-Jewish history
September 10: Tobias Brinkmann on Migration
October 22: Jonathan R. Zatlin on the Economy
November 12: Marsha Rozenblit on Austria
December 3: Deborah Hertz on Gender
