Anglo-Jewry since 1066: Place, locality and memory is a study of
the history and memory of Anglo-Jewry from medieval times to the
present and is the first to explore the construction of identities,
both Jewish and non-Jewish, in relation to the concept of place.
The introductory chapters provide a theoretical overview focusing
on the nature of local studies then moves into a chronological
frame, starting with medieval Winchester, moving to early modern
Portsmouth and then chapters covering the evolution of Anglo-Jewry
from emancipation to the twentieth century. Emphasis is placed on
the impact on identities resulting from the complex relationship
between migration (including transmigration) and settlement of
minority groups. Drawing upon a wide range of approaches, including
history, cultural and literary studies, geography, Jewish and
ethnic and racial studies, Kushner uses extensive sources including
novels, poems, art, travel literature, autobiographical writing,
official documentation, newspapers and census data. This book will
appeal to scholars interested in Jewish studies and British history
