| Title: French Jewry and the Church-State Dilemma |
| Sub-title: From the Revolution to the Great War (1789-1914) |
| By (author): Zvi Jonathan Kaplan |
| ISBN13: 9798887197845 |
| This book analyzes the development of Jewish positions on the relationship between Church and State from the Revolution until the Great War It is a comprehensive study of the complex interplay among different segments of the Jewish population and the communityâ s attempt to come to terms with its social and religious status in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As this book demonstrates, the organized French Jewish community strategically charted the political waters by steering clear of extremist political positions and by adopting a â soft clericalâ approach to Church-State issues. This centrist approach subjected French Jews to criticism from both anticlerical and clerical forces, but nonetheless the rabbinate, consistorial officials, and the Jewish press believed that French Judaism and French Jewry would thrive most in a climate of moderation. |

| Title: The Cantonists |
| Sub-title: Jewish Boys in the Russian Military, 1827–1856 |
| By (author): Josef Mendelevich Translated by: Rachelle Emanuel |
| ISBN13: 9798887197838 |
| Before 1917, the Russian Tsar wielded absolute power over a vast empire, where more than 5 million Jews lived in isolation and segregation. Under the rule of Tsar Nicholas I (1825â 1855), policies toward Jews became especially oppressive. Nicholas sought to erase Jewish identity by forcing their conversion to Christianity and promoting assimilation through mixed marriages. One of his most ruthless strategies was the implementation of the Cantonist system, which conscripted Jewish boys under the age of 13 into military service. These children were torn from their families and communities, subjected to brutal treatment, and pressured relentlessly to abandon their faith. Over three decades, approximately 75,000 Jewish boys were conscripted. Despite the immense hardships, the majority stood firm with only 25% succumbing to conversion. This powerful account sheds light on a dark chapter in history, illustrating the resilience of a people facing relentless oppression under an authoritarian regime. |
