Jewish Studies

Israel's most comprehensive, authoritative daily source for 24/7 breaking news & current events from Israel and Jewish content online.

Compact Memory is a project jointly undertaken by three academic institutions. It offers actual reproductions of the most important research journals for German-Jewish history and genealogy research, covering the entire German-speaking world. Since some of these journals carried news about Jews in areas outside Germany as well, they are worth consulting for news of other locations, such as the United States and Russia.

Database access to the longest running newspaper currently in print in Israel. Also available in Hebrew.

This American Memory project at the Library of Congress summarizes the history of the Jewish press in the United States (which published primarily in English and Yiddish but has also sustained publications in Hebrew, German, Ladino, and Russian).

Consists of three main components: ABZU bibliographic database; core texts, in PDF format, including Marcus Jastrow’s A Dictionary of the Targumim, the Talmud Babli and Yerushalmi, and the Midrashic Literature and other classic texts; and links to archaeological projects. Joint project of the American Oriental Society, the American Schools of Oriental Research, Case Western Reserve University, Cobb Institute of Archaeology at Mississippi State, Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago

Subset of texts derived from three major online Sourcebooks, listed below, along with added texts and web site indicators: Internet Ancient History Sourcebook, Internet Medieval Sourcebook, Medieval Jewish Section, Internet Modern History Sourcebook.
