Abstract:
We are delighted to present the 2022 volume of the Leo Baeck Institute Year Book, which this year includes two special sections. The first deals with an uncommon topic for the Year Book: Sephardi Jewish life between Vienna and the Balkans. We are grateful to Fani Gargova of the University of Vienna and Lisa Silverman of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (a contributing editor of the Year Book) for initiating and producing these articles, which are based on work first presented at the Association for Jewish Studies conference in San Diego in December 2019. The second section discusses the life and remarkable collection of books, art, and manuscripts of the German-Israeli publisher Salman Schocken. The articles originated at a conference held in Jerusalem in 2019, organized by the German Literature Archive Marbach, the Leo Baeck Institute Jerusalem, the JTS-Schocken Institute for Jewish Research, Jerusalem, and the Chair of Jewish History and Culture at the University of Munich. This year’s Year Book Essay Prize winner is Stefan Boberg, for his article ‘Implementing the Reichsbürgergesetz: Registration, Statistics, and the Deportations of German Jews’. We are grateful to the team that makes it possible for the Year Book to be published. Our thanks go, as ever, to our managing editor Almut Becker, to our copy-editors Kat Hall and Anna Kealy, and to our colleagues at Oxford University Press. Finally, we would not be able to publish the Year Book without the generous support of the German government’s Bundesministerium des Innern and the Ständige Konferenz der Kultusminister der Länder in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland. © The Author(s) (2022).
