Rebecca Kobrin's study of the dispersal of Jews from one city in Poland—Bialystok—demonstrates how the act of migration set in motion a wide range of transformations that led the migrants to imagine themselves as exiles not only from the mythic Land of Israel but most immediately from their east European homeland. Kobrin explores the organizations, institutions, newspapers, and philanthropies that the Bialystokers created around the world and that reshaped their perceptions of exile and diaspora.Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Society & CultureBook Series: Modern Jewish ExperienceTopic: Social SciencesRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
