SUMMARY:Jewish Journalism in Dark Times
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a roundtable discussion exploring the transformation of Jewish\njournalism during the interwar years (1918–1939) and World War II\, an era of\nprofound upheaval. Panelists will analyze how Jewish newspapers and journals\nbecame vital platforms for political\, literary\, and cultural engagement. The\ndiscussion will highlight dramatic shifts in journalistic practices\, including\nevolving editorial strategies\, reporting methods\, and technological\ninnovations in format and distribution and the transnational and transcultural\nelements that come to the fore during that time. Panelists will also examine\nthe economic pressures and opportunities that shaped the Jewish press\, and\nconsider the influence and role of Jews as journalists within the broader\nmedia landscape. \n**Gilad Halpern** \, journalist and media historian\, draws on recent doctoral\nresearch on The Palestine Post amid imperial decline and rising nationalism\,\nbridging professional and scholarly perspectives.**Naomi Brenner** explores\nentertainment fiction in the Hebrew and Yiddish press\, focusing on the\naesthetics and politics of the roman-feuilleton as a transnational literary\nform.**Matthew Handelman** investigates the cultural politics of German Jewish\nintellectuals and the primacy of culture in political discourse from the\nWeimar Republic onward. \nCentral to the conversation is the role of Jewish periodicals as spaces for\ncultural expression\, literary experimentation\, and political debate. These\npublications not only documented Jewish life\, but also actively shaped\nidentities\, fostered transnational dialogue\, and provided forums for writers\,\nartists\, and intellectuals grappling with questions of survival and belonging.\nThis roundtable offers timely insights into journalism during a time of\ncrisis\, illuminating enduring questions about Jews and media. \nOrganized by: U-M Frankel Center for Judaic Studies \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/13936
