What it means to be Jewish in Austria is deeply rooted in the past, but also continues to evolve. Although confronted with antisemitism, Austrian Jews ranging from strongly assimilationist to ardently Zionist drove and supported some of the best-known ideas and movements of modern culture, whether these were aimed at conserving tradition or at forging innovation. Many scholars remain fascinated by Jews’ participation in high culture and modernism around the fin de siècle: the works of Arthur Schnitzler, Sigmund Freud, and Stefan Zweig, to name only a few, continue to mark the landscape of international popular culture. In recent years, commentators have noted a ‘re-invigoration’ or even ‘rebirth’ (Hope Herzog) of Jewish culture in Austria. At the same time, recent violent attacks on Jews in France and Denmark have raised awareness in Austria of antisemitism as a Europe-wide problem, lending increased urgency to discussions within Austria itself.

Austrian Studies 24 is edited by Deborah Holmes, Senior Lecturer in German at the University of Kent, Canterbury/Assistent Professor at the Paris-Lodron Universität Salzburg, and Lisa Silverman, Associate Professor of History and Jewish Studies at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee.

Sonia Gollance's chapter in this issue was awarded the Best Article Prize for 2017 by the Coalition of Women in German.
