#157 - The Russian Empire V – Genius, Identity & Revolution
History for the Curious - The Jewish History PodcastShow Notes
(To book the Provence trip with Rabbi Tatz & Rabbi Hersh - email [email protected]) Jewish leadership found itself in a crisis post-1881, affecting not only their options but their identity. In response, Rabbis turned to the international community for help, especially from non-Jewish politicians. This period was exacerbated by the publication of the infamous Protocols of the Elders of Zion and the notorious Kishinev pogrom of 1903, which was followed by the abortive 1905 Revolution. As a conclusion, the podcast also defines the historical context of Jewish suffering and the cycle of Jewish history.
