Lenin's Jewish Question

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Petrovsky-Shtern, Yohanan, PUBLISHER: Yale University Press, In this first examination of Lenin's genealogical and political connections to East European Jews, Yohanan Petrovsky-Shtern reveals the broad cultural meanings of indisputable evidence that Lenin's maternal grandfather was a Jew. He examines why and how Lenin's Jewish relatives converted to Christianity, explains how Lenin's vision of Russian Marxism shaped his identity, and explores Lenin's treatment of party colleagues of Jewish origin and the Jewish Question in Europe. Petrovsky-Shtern also uncovers the continuous efforts of the Soviet communists to suppress Lenin's Jewishness and the no less persistent attempts of Russian extremists to portray Lenin as a Jew. In this fascinating book, Petrovsky-Shtern expands our understanding not only of Lenin, but also of Russian and Soviet handling of the Jewish Question.

Indeed,its substance goes far beyond the range of a contemporary academic anthol

Encyclopedia of Jewish communities - Rumania, Volume I -

Encyclopedia of Jewish communities - Rumania, Volume I -Jerusalem, Yad Vashem, pages - Hardcover - 22 x 28 x 4 cmCondition:very good In HebrewThe geography of the Jewish history – the vague is greater than the explicit. Surely, there are a handful of people in our generation who are able to look at an historical atlas and point out the location of Nehardea, Pumbedita and Sura. However, even the historical atlas does not show the locations of hundreds of Jewish communities that existed in greater Babylon. And, who can guarantee that in a hundred years from now the thousands of European Jewish congregations will be remembered unless we build for them a gravestone of this kind. This is the mission of “Pinkas ha-Kehilot” which got a priority in the undertakings of Yad Vashem. Read More
