Aschkenas

Aims & Scope

Aschkenas focuses on the history and culture of the Ashkenazic Jews (those living in Central and Western Europe as well as North Italy), from the time when Ashkenazic Jewish culture was gradually forming in late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages up to the emancipation of the Jews in the 19th century.

It also includes articles dealing with issues outside this period of time and geographical area.

Aschkenas publishes essays, source editions, literature and research reports as well as reviews of current new publications.

All published articles have undergone single blind peer review with at least one external reviewer.
