Description
Contextualised by topographical and global mapping, fitting for a people who have moved both around the world and within Edinburgh itself, the exhibition reveals the significant influence of this comparatively small community on the city. It also addresses the impact of world events, including both World Wars and the Zionist movement, as well as revealing areas of contention amongst Edinburgh’s Jews.
This online exhibition focuses, like the exhibition on display at The University of Edinburgh, on developments from the late nineteenth century until the middle of the twentieth century.
