The
Jews of Vienna and the First World War
Author Information - Contents - Publication Details - Reviews
The
First World War marked the final chapter in the history of Habsburg Viennese
Jewry. In this book, the first study of Viennese Jews in this period,
David Rechter explores the community's crises of ideology and identity
during the traumatic war years. The book is also a study of modern Jewish
politics. Viennese and Austrian Jewish political culture was a unique
amalgam, combining the nationalism and radicalism of eastern Europe with
the liberalism of the west.
David Rechter is University Research Lecturer in Oriental Studies, University of Oxford; Research Fellow in Modern Jewish History at St Antony's College, Oxford; and Fellow in Modern Jewish History at the Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies.
