Book talk by Dr. Tim Buchen, 6.4.21 - "Antisemitism in Galicia: Agitation, Politics, and Violence against Jews in the Late Habsburg Monarchy"
The Stephen Roth Institute for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism and Racism is glad to invite you to a book talk by Dr. Tim Buchen, discussing his latest book, "Antisemitism in Galicia: Agitation, Politics, and Violence against Jews in the Late Habsburg Monarchy".
31 March 2021
The talk will center on the last third of the nineteenth century, when the discourse on the “Jewish question” in the Habsburg crownlands of Galicia changed fundamentally, as clerical and populist politicians emerged to denounce the Jewish assimilation and citizenship. Dr. Tim Buchen's pioneering study investigates the interaction of agitation, violence, and politics against Jews on the periphery of the Danube monarchy. It shows just how significant antisemitism was to the politics of coexistence among Christians and Jews on the eve of the Great War. The book and the discussion offer an innovative look at antisemitism, so poignant just before the Israeli Holocaust Remembrance Day.
The talk will take place over Zoom, on Tuesday, April 6, 2021. Registration is required via the following LINK.
