Overview
Jewish Odesa: Negotiating Identities and Traditions in
Contemporary Ukraine explores the rich Jewish history in
Ukraine's port city of Odesa. Long considered both a uniquely
cosmopolitan and Jewish place, Odesa's Jewish character has shifted
since the Soviet Union collapsed and Ukraine gained its
independence.
Drawing on extensive field research, Marina Sapritsky-Nahum,
examines how the role of Russian language and culture, memories of
the Soviet political project, and Odesan's place in a Ukrainian
national project have all been questioned in recent years.
Jewish Odesa reveals how a city once famous for its
progressive Jewish traditions has become dominated by Orthodox
Judaism and framed by the agendas of international Jewish
organizations embedded in a religiosity that is foreign to the
city. Russia's war in Ukraine has forced Jewish identities with
ties to Odesa to change still further.
