How are memories of migration kept, stored, forgotten, and indeed retrieved? Based on a variety of examples and conceptual approaches, this volume offers a new and original way to write Jewish history and the history of Jewish migration in the context of personal and public memory, using evidence from official archives and heritage centres, as well as personal and family collections. Contributors reflect on how this evidence of memory characterises the transitory character of the migration experience, and how they tell stories of longing and belonging. This book was originally published as a special issue of Jewish Culture and History.
