At the beginning of the eighteenth century most European Jews lived in restricted settlements and urban ghettos, isolated from the surrounding dominant Christian cultures not only by law but also by language, custom, and dress. By the end of the century urban, upwardly mobile Jews had shaved their beards and abandoned Yiddish in favor of the languages of the countries in which they lived. They began to participate in secular culture and they embraced rationalism and non-Jewish education as supplements to traditional Talmudic studies. The full participation of Jews in modern Europe and America would be unthinkable without the intellectual and social revolution that was the Haskalah, or Jewish Enlightenment. Unparalleled in scale and comprehensiveness, The Jewish Enlightenment reconstructs the intellectual and social revolution of the Haskalah as it gradually gathered momentum throughout the eighteenth century. Relying on a huge range of previously unexplored sources, Shmuel Feiner fully views the Haskalah as the Jewish version of the European Enlightenment and, as such, a movement that cannot be isolated from broader eighteenth-century European traditions. Critically, he views the Haskalah as a truly European phenomenon and not one simply centered in Germany. He also shows how the republic of letters in European Jewry provided an avenue of secularization for Jewish society and culture, sowing the seeds of Jewish liberalism and modern ideology and sparking the Orthodox counterreaction that culminated in a clash of cultures within the Jewish community. The Haskalah's confrontations with its opponents within Jewry constitute one of the most fascinating chapters in the history of the dramatic and traumatic encounter between the Jews and modernity. The Haskalah is one of the central topics in modern Jewish historiography. With its scope, erudition, and new analysis, The Jewish Enlightenment now provides the most comprehensive treatment of this major cultural movement.

Len Harris, the new editor of a Baltimore-based ethnic publication, Haskala, the genesis of which is pre-WW II, struggles with an identity crisis as does his journal. The publisher, Bernie Price, son of the late founder, Sidney Price, is determined to dismiss Haskala's ethnic slant and turn largely secular, a move to increase the ad base and readership. Meanwhile, Harris views his job as a pulpit of sorts and refuses to accept his publisher's diminished editorial position on spirituality. A war for space is on. Harris, struggling to view the world through the eyes of a Jewish journalist, meanwhile faces a messy divorce from an imported Scottish decorator, firm in the belief that her fortune depends on her lawyer's ability to nail her discarded spouse in divorce court. Harris, on the advice of a rabbi friend, hires his own attorney, a frightening character with duel American/Israeli citizenship who moonlights for Mossad. He crushes his opponent in court, as his angry ex-wife vows revenge by recruiting her soccer-playing Irish cousin, in the USA, fund-raising for his cause, the Irish Republican Army. No slouch, the cousin has thus far collected four million dollars. Only he needs a way to get it through airport security and out of the country. Meanwhile, Harris' attorney convinces his client the I.R.A. fundraising ex-wife's cousin trains Palestinians, is a threat to Israel and, he, Harris, must help stop him. Back at Haskala, publisher Bernie Price, about to fire his long-time printers and replace them with a computerized publishing set-up, underestimates them badly. Injured African American WW II vets, they are hired in 1945 by Haskala founder and publishing icon, the late Sid Price, father of Bernie. They live in a basement apartment adjacent to the Haskala print shop. Len Harris, on learning the printers will be fired and evicted from their apartment, vows to save them. Only they have plans to save themselves by bringing down Haskala. Their intention is to publish their own weekly version, an all-bigot issue, which they do and distribute. Price convinces himself Harris did it and puts out a contract on him when the printers' issue hits the streets and Haskala crashes. Harris, on the run with the four million in I.R.A. money, stolen from the I.R.A. fund-raiser in a scam using him to get the money out of the country, must deal with the wrath of Bernie Price while being pursued unknowingly by the IRA agent. Nothing is as it seems. Pursued by a contract killer and an Irish Revolutionary, how Len Harris survives is at the heart of this "dark" comic thriller.

The Berlin Jewish community was both the pioneer in intellectual modernization and the first to experience a crisis of modernity. This original and imaginative book connects intellectual and political transformation with the social structures and daily activities of the Jewish community. Steven M. Lowenstein has used extraordinarily rich documentation about the life of Berlin Jewry in the period and assembled a collective biography of the entire community of Berlin Jews. He has examined tax lists, subscription lists, genealogical records, and address lists as well as kosher meat accounts to give us a vivid picture of daily life. On another level in detailing the complexity of Jewish life in Berlin during this period, this book illuminates the connections between the "peaceful stage" of enlightenment and the crisis that followed.
