  Izmir: Jews in the Ottoman World – A Talk with Prof. Dina Danon

  Time:  7:00pm

  Professor Dina Danon explores the long-overlooked history of the Ottoman Jewish community in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Drawing extensively on a rich body of previously untapped Ladino archival material, she tells a story through the voices of beggars on the street and mercantile elites, shoe-shiners and newspaper editors, rabbis and housewives. Across Europe, Jews were often confronted with the notion that their religious and cultural distinctiveness was somehow incompatible with the modern age. Yet the view from Ottoman Izmir invites a different approach: what happens when Jewish difference is totally unremarkable? What happens when there is no “Jewish Question?” The talk underscore how it was new attitudes to poverty and social class, not Judaism, that most significantly framed this Sephardi community’s encounter with the modern age.
