| Zusammenfassung: | In Jewish Poland Revisited, anthropologist Erica Lehrer takes readers on an intimate journey into the contemporary “space” of Kazimierz, the historically Jewish neighborhood in Cracow, Poland, to investigate questions of identity, culture production, memory, and reconciliation. Lehrer guides her readers through the community in which she conducted her field work, introducing us to many of the social actors she met there. Among these are Poles who are working to preserve and perpetuate Jewish culture: Zdzisław Leś and his wife Lucyna, co-owners of the Jarden Jewish Bookshop, as well as several other business owners in the Jewish Quarter, tour guides who provide a “direct interface” with tourists, and many others. |
