Summary
Although he occupied a key position in the transnational Jewish culture during his lifetime, Joseph Opatoshu (1886-1954) has until recently been neglected by scholars. This volume brings together literary specialists and historians working in Jewish and Slavic Studies, who analyse Opatoshu's quest for modern Jewish identity from different perspectives.
