Jewish life in Europe has undergone dramatic changes and
transformations within the 20th century and also the last two
decades. The phenomenon of the dual position of the Jewish minority
in relation to the majority, not entirely unusual for Jewish
Diaspora communities, manifested itself most distinctly on the
European continent. This unique Jewish experience of the ambiguous
position of insider and outsider may provide valuable views on
contemporary European reality and identity crisis. The book focuses
inter alia on the main common denominators of contemporary Jewish
life in Central Europe, such as an intense confrontation with the
heritage of the Holocaust and unrelenting antisemitism on the one
hand and on the other hand, huge appreciation of traditional Jewish
learning and culture by a considerable part of non-Jewish
Europeans. The volume includes contributions on Jewish life in
central European countries like Hungary, the Czech Republic,
Poland, Austria, and Germany.
