The phenomenon of national identities, always a key issue in the
modern history of Bohemian Jewry, was particularly complex because
of the marginal differences that existed between the available
choices. Considerable overlap was evident in the programs of the
various national movements and it was possible to change one's
national identity or even to opt for more than one such identity
without necessarily experiencing any far-reaching consequences in
everyday life. Based on many hitherto unknown archival sources from
the Czech Republic, Israel and Austria, the author's research
reveals the inner dynamic of each of the national movements and
maps out the three most important constructions of national
identity within Bohemian Jewry - the German-Jewish, the
Czech-Jewish and the Zionist. This book provides a needed framework
for understanding the rich history of German- and Czech-Jewish
politics and culture in Bohemia and is a notable contribution to
the historiography of Bohemian, Czechoslovak and central European
Jewry.
