The Czech Republic, and Prague in particular, played a significant role in the development of Jewish intellectual and cultural life in Central Europe. The Jewish communities of Bohemia and Moravia contributed to religious thought, communal organization, and cultural creativity across centuries.
The program examines the preserved heritage of these communities alongside the disruptions of the twentieth century, offering a framework for understanding Jewish minority life, cultural production, and historical transformation in the European context.
