Inhalt:
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, after the inclusion of the conquered areas, including the territories of the divided and annexed Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Russian Empire gradually became the location with the largest Jewish population in the world. The class will deal with the following aspects of the Jewish life in the tsarist empire: Jewish shtetl life, childhood and education, work experiences, marriage and divorce practices, infanticide, extramarital relationships and their perception within the Jewish community. We will likewise examine the topic of the Jewish white slave trade and will investigate the issue of prostitution of Jewish women. The course will also study the anti-Jewish violence and pogroms in tsarist Russia as well as the Jewish life in the emigration in the USA and South Africa at the turn of the century. Finally, we will finish the class with the examination of Jewish perspectives on the First World War.
