A Club of Their Own: Jewish Humorists and the Contemporary World
ISBN: 9780190646127 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Volume XXIX of Studies in Contemporary Jewry takes its title from a joke by Groucho Marx: "I don't want to belong to any club that will accept me as a member."

Polin: Studies in Polish Jewry Volume 20: Making Holocaust Memory
ISBN: 9781904113065 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 510 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Although the reconciliation of Jewish and Polish memories of the Holocaust is the central issue in contemporary Polish-Jewish relations, this is the first attempt to examine these divisive memories in a comprehensive way. Until 1989, Polish consciousness of the Second World War subsumed the destruction of Polish Jewry within a communist narrative of Polish martyrdom and heroism. Post-war Jewish memory, by contrast, has been concerned mostly with Jewish martyrdom and heroism (and barely acknowledged the plight of Poles under German occupation). Since the 1980s, however, a significant number of...

Jewish Honor Courts: Revenge, Retribution, and Reconciliation in Europe and Israel After the Holocaust
ISBN: 9780814338773 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the aftermath of World War II, virtually all European countries struggled with the dilemma of citizens who had collaborated with Nazi occupiers. Jewish communities in particular faced the difficult task of confronting collaborators among their own ranks-those who had served on Jewish councils, worked as ghetto police, or acted as informants. European Jews established their own tribunals-honor courts-for dealing with these crimes, while Israel held dozens of court cases against alleged collaborators under a law passed two years after its founding. In Jewish Honor Courts: Revenge,... In the aftermath of World War II, virtually all European countries struggled with the dilemma of citizens who had collaborated with Nazi occupiers.... |
