The Berlin Jewish Community Description
This study investigates the relationship between the forces of Jewish modernization and the forces of assimilation and dissolution in the first major Jewish community to undergo the process - Berlin. Presenting a collective biography of the entire Jewish population of Berlin in this period, Lowenstein measures the personal and family connections between the followers of the Enlightenment and reform and those involved in the crisis of illegitimacy, family breakdownand conversion, and finds startling connections between the process of modernization and the ensuing crisis.

The Berlin Jewish community was both the pioneer in intellectual modernization and the first to experience a crisis of modernity. This original and imaginative book connects intellectual and political transformation with the social structures and daily activities of the Jewish community. Steven M. Lowenstein has used extraordinarily rich documentation about the life of Berlin Jewry in the period and assembled a collective biography of the entire community of Berlin Jews. He has examined tax lists subscription lists genealogical records and address lists as well as kosher meat accounts to give us a vivid picture of daily life. On another level in detailing the complexity of Jewish life in Berlin during this period this book illuminates the connections between the peaceful stage of enlightenment and the crisis that followed.
