Reviews

Reviews'This is an important subject not only for those concerned with the modern history and culture of Polish Jews but also for anyone interested in the relations between academy and community or in the social role of scholars and scholarship'. David Engel, New York University 'Historical scholarship was a main feature of Polish-Jewish culture between the wars and is one of the main legacies of Polish Jewry. This book, analysing the political and social context and the metahistory of that work, promises to be a landmark piece of scholarship.' Moshe Rosman, Bar-Ilan University

Moshe Rosman, Bar-Ilan University 'Natalia Aleksiun's important new book [...] gives voice to these largely unknown historians who may have doubted the efficacy of their enterprise but never their right to undertake it [...] Thanks to Aleksiun's carefully researched and evocative book, we now know their names and their scholarship.'Nancy Sinkoff, Sources
