Sommario/riassunto |
|
For many years, Poland served as the epicentre of Jewish life but became a ""Jewish Atlantis"" after the Holocaust. This book shows how the works of intellect produced during the Jewish ""Golden Age"" in Poland can provide today's Jews with the resources required to ensure future Jewish continuity. |
