Publishers cloth. 8vo. X, 186 pages. 24 cm. First edition. In February of 1903, in a small town in the southwestern part of the Russian empire, a peasant stumbled upon the corpse of 14-year-old Mikhail Rybachenko, bruised and covered with stab wounds, in a garden. The murder immediately fueled wild rumors that he had been killed by local Jews in need of his Christian blood to prepare their matzah bread. Panic rumors, grounded in sinister superstitions of Jewish sorcery and ritual murder, quickly spread to nearby towns. By April, they had hit Kishinev - a growing metropolis of 100, 000 inhabitants rife with the unrest of rapid expansion, ethnic rivalry, revolutionary agitation, and anti-Semitism - with full force. The resulting massacre left dozens dead, and hundreds wounded, maimed, widowed, orphaned, or homeless. This is the story of Kishinev. In this extensively researched book, Edward Judge examines these anti-Jewish riots, detailing their background, cause, and aftermath. He traces the evolution of the riots, analyzing the broader impact of imperial policies, urbanization, nationalism, population growth, and revolutionary activism upon the Jewish situation in Russia. Recounting the activities and attitudes of anti-Semitic agitators and Kishinev officials, the book examines the spiral of violence, the inaction of the authorities in the wake of the pogrom, the storm of indignation that followed the pogrom, and the efforts of tsarist officials to counter subsequent negative publicity. Easter in Kishinev also portrays the investigation of the disorders and the trials of the rioters and carefully considers the question of government responsibility for the outbreak of the pogrom.

FONDO DI MAGAZZINO SEGNI DEL TEMPO, UNA LEGGERISSIMA PIEGA AL RETROCOPERTINA, MA IL VOLUME è INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. ANCORA PRESENTE LA FASCETTA PUBBLICITARIA: NUOVA EDIZIONE. Il volgere del nuovo secolo, il passaggio delle generazioni, la difficile elaborazione del lutto della Shoah, insieme alle domande che nascono dalla crisi mediorientale, ci portano ad interrogarci sulle radici europee dell'identità ebraica. Questo libro racconta sei secoli di storia degli ebrei in Europa, dal Trecento fino alle soglie del Novecento: una storia che è quella degli ebrei dell'Occidente cristiano, delle condizioni della loro esistenza, dei rapporti con la cultura esterna, di esilio e migrazioni, chiusura nei ghetti e vitalità sociale e culturale.
