All that are left of the House of Israel': The Revival of Judaism in World War II France and its postwar impact

Lecturer: Sarah Hammerschlag, University of Chicago

The talk will consider the role of the Jewish boy scouts in the renewal of Judaism both during and after World War II in France.  It will show the dual influences of biblical archetypes and interwar youth culture on this movement and their impact on reimagining the ideal of the Jewish man in the French Jewish context.
