Judaica Bohemiae (47/2012, 1) includes a study by Marie Malivánková Wasková on the development and gradual demise of the medieval Jewish community in Pilsen. On the basis of a thorough analysis and a combination of all the extant sources, this study corrects mistakes made in the earlier literature and brings new interesting information. It is followed by a paper by Peter Kónya examining the origin of the Jewish community in Prešov and the forming of relations between the Jews of Prešov and the town’s inhabitants. In the next paper, Adam Dobeš explores the historical background to the little known anti-Jewish incidents in the southern Bohemian towns of Jindřichův Hradec (Neuhaus) and Nová Bystřice (Neubistritz) that occurred in 1859 in connection with Second War of Italian Independence. The final paper, by Andrea Jelínková, focuses on the war-time and post-war fate of the Terezín books – books that were part of the Central Library of the Terezín Ghetto and the large Terezín collection of Hebraica and Judaica looted by the Nazis in various libraries and institutions in occupied Europe. In the reports section, Martin Jelínek presents the neZnámí (unKnown) project, whose aim was to identify as yet unknown persons who appear on several hundred portrait photographs from 1942-44 that are kept in the Photo Archive of the Jewish Museum in Prague. The volume also includes a review by Pavel Sládek of David B. Ruderman’s book Early Modern Jewry. A New Cultural History (2010), a review by Ivo Cerman of Arno Herzig’s book Das Interesse an den Juden in der frühen Neuzeit. Studien zur Kontinuität und zum Wandel des Judenbildes (2012) and a review by Martha Keil of Beer Sheva by Beer and Bella Perlhefter. An Edition of a Seventeenth Century Yiddish Encyclopaedia (edited by Nathanael Riemer and Sigrid Senkbeil, 2011).
