No longer living in the places of their childhood, they settled in urban centers, such as in New York's Lower East Side. In this neighborhood, Galician Jews began to search for new relationships that linked the places they left and the ones where they arrived and settled. By looking at Galicia through the lens of autobiographical writings by former Jewish immigrants who became established residents of New York, this article emphasizes the role of regionalism in the context of transnational conceptions of a new American Jewish self-understanding. It argues that the key to analyzing the evolution of "eastern Europe" as a common place of origin for American Jewry is the constant dialogue between the places of origin and arrival. Specifically, philanthropic efforts during and after the First World War and the proliferation of tourism both enabled these settled immigrants to gradually replace regional notions, such as the idea of Galicia, with a mythical image of eastern Europe to create a sense of community as American Jews.}, language = {en} } @article{Schwartz2021, author = {Schwartz, Yitzchak}, title = {American Jewish Ideas in a Transnational Jewish World, 1843-1900}, series = {PaRDeS : Journal of the Association for Jewish Studies in Germany}, journal = {PaRDeS : Journal of the Association for Jewish Studies in Germany}, number = {27}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-520-0}, issn = {1614-6492}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-53283}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-532835}, pages = {39 -- 52}, year = {2021}, abstract = {As mid-19th-century American Jews introduced radical changes to their religious observance and began to define Judaism in new ways, to what extent did they engage with European Jewish ideas? Historians often approach religious change among Jews from German lands during this period as if Jewish immigrants had come to America with one set of ideas that then evolved solely in conversation with their American contexts. Historians have similarly cast the kinds of Judaism Americans created as both unique to America and uniquely American. These characterizations are accurate to an extent. But to what extent did Jewish innovations in the United States take place in conversation with European Jewish developments? Looking to the 19th-century American Jewish press, this paper seeks to understand how American Jews engaged European Judaism in formulating their own ideas, understanding themselves, and understanding their place in world Judaism.}, language = {en} } @article{DinerKrah2021, author = {Diner, Hasia and Krah, Markus}, title = {Foreign Entanglements}, series = {PaRDeS : Zeitschrift der Vereinigung f{\"u}r J{\"u}dische Studien}, journal = {PaRDeS : Zeitschrift der Vereinigung f{\"u}r J{\"u}dische Studien}, number = {27}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-520-0}, issn = {1614-6492}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-53276}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-532761}, pages = {13 -- 21}, year = {2021}, language = {en} } @misc{DinerKrahRabinetal.2021, author = {Diner, Hasia and Krah, Markus and Rabin, Shari and Schwartz, Yitzchak and Thulin, Mirjam and Czendze, Oskar and Schmidt, Imanuel Clemens and Cooperman, Jessica and Gallas, Elisabeth and R{\"u}rup, Miriam and Heyde, J{\"u}rgen and Meyer, Thomas and Ries, Rotraud and Ullrich, Anna and Geißler-Gr{\"u}nberg, Anke and Schulz, Michael Karl and Arnold, Rafael D. and Sinn, Andrea A.}, title = {PaRDeS : Journal of the Association for Jewish Studies in Germany = Foreign Entanglements: Transnational American Jewish Studies}, series = {PaRDeS : Journal of the Association for Jewish Studies in Germany}, journal = {PaRDeS : Journal of the Association for Jewish Studies in Germany}, number = {27}, editor = {Diner, Hasia and Krah, Markus and Siegel, Bj{\"o}rn}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-520-0}, issn = {1614-6492}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-51933}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-519333}, pages = {189}, year = {2021}, abstract = {The field of American Jewish studies has recently trained its focus on the transnational dimensions of its subject, reflecting in more sustained ways than before about the theories and methods of this approach.

Transnational American Jewish studies are still in their infancy. This issue of PaRDeS presents current research on the multiple entanglements of American with Central European, especially German-speaking Jewries in the 19th and 20th centuries.
