PaRDeS 2020: Jewish Families and Kinship in the Early Modern and Modern Eras
PaRDeS, the journal of the German Association for Jewish Studies, devotes its upcoming is-sue to the topic Jewish Families and Kinship in the Early Modern and Modern Eras.
The Jewish family as a field of inquiry is at the intersection – or in the shadow – of the great topics in Jewish historiography and modern social and cultural family research: modernization and
privatization of Judaism and Jewish life, integration and distinctiveness, and gender roles and education, to name but a few. After such research had started among Jewish scholars of Wissenschaft des
Judentums in the last two decades of the nineteenth century, academic Jewish family research became institutionalized in 1913 with the journal Archiv für jüdische Familienforschung, edited by Max
Grunwald (1871–1953). The supporters of the journal from the Viennese Jewish Museum intended to deepen the knowledge and significance of wills and testaments, family trees, privileges, diplomas,
mohel books, and other documents as sources of historical research on the Jewish family. Today, we can add to the list of sources also ma-terial objects that were or still are in the possession of a
family and that explain the path of a certain family or kinship relations.
The Shoah interrupted Jewish family research for a long time. The pioneering studies of Jacob Katz then brought the field back into the academic discourse. Since that time, we have learned about the
“myths and realities” of and in Jewish families, their means of “coping with life and death,” the “realities of interfaith families,” and many other issues, which nevertheless only hint at the
untapped potential of this field. It is obvious that family research has always been a profoundly interdisciplinary field. Gender studies, regional/trans-regional and local studies, and everyday and
social history offer fresh and at the same time systematic approaches to the history of Jewish families.
We invite contributions that include but are not limited to the following subjects:
- marriage and married life (founding of the first household, acquisition of work or busi-ness, children, death of children)
- networks and mobility (family dynasties, yichus/status, status preservation and loss of status, social placement of children, etc.)
- role models and roles of men and women (fathers and mothers, children, siblings, cous-ins, grandparents, etc.)
- family business (companies and enterprises in the hands of Jewish families, family heritage and inheritance disputes)
- Family as focus and locus of Jewish religion (intermarriage, wedding ceremonies, con-version)
- history and historiography of Jewish academic family research
We invite standard-length articles (30,000-35,000 characters, incl. spaces), but also shorter outlines of current research projects (e.g. dissertations, 7,500-12,500 characters), which will
undergo a peer review. Please send a one-page abstract (approx. 500 words) and a 100-word CV in English or German by June 15, 2019 to the editors Mirjam Thulin
and Markus Krah at journalpardes2020@gmail.com. We will inform the authors about the acceptance of their pro-posals by June 30. The deadline for contributions will be November 15, 2019. We also
invite
reviews of recent books relevant to the volume’s topic; please contact the editor for reviews, Bianca Pick (bianca.pick1@uni-oldenburg.de).
PaRDeS is an interdisciplinary, fully double-blind peer-reviewed, and Rambi-indexed journal, published online (open access) and in print. Previous issues of the journal can be found by following this

„Grauzonen": Tagung zu 200 Jahre Wissenschaft des Judentums
16.-19. Juni 2019 in Heidelberg
Die Wissenschaft des Judentums begeht im Jahr 2019 ihr 200jähriges Bestehen als Disziplin.
Der Weg von einer Berliner Versammlung junger jüdischer Intellektueller im Herbst 1819 über die Wissenschaft des Judentums bis zu den heutigen Jüdischen Studien wird, trotz des Bruchs der Jahre
1933-1945, gerne als Erfolgsgeschichte gelesen. Doch unvollendete Ansätze, nicht beantwortete Fragen, abgebrochene Karrieren und vergessene Leistungen, aber auch eine Vielzahl ungelöster Probleme im
Verhältnis anderer Disziplinen zu den Jüdischen Studien und zum Judentum bleiben dabei ausgeblendet.
Die Hochschule für Jüdische Studien Heidelberg, die im Jahr 2019 zugleich ihr 40jähriges Bestehen begeht, nimmt diese Grauzonen in den Blick und lädt zusammen mit der Ruprecht-Karls-Universität
Heidelberg und dem Verband der Judaisten in Deutschland vom 16. bis 19. Juni 2019 zur Konferenz nach Heidelberg ein.
Die Tagung wird gefördert durch die Alfried Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach-Stiftung und unterstützt vom Freundeskreis der HfJS.
Wir laden Sie herzlich ein, an der Tagung teilzunehmen.
