Their goal was to publish a popular and comprehensive Yiddish language encyclopedia of general knowledge that would serve as a bridge to the modern world and as a guide to help its readers navigate their way within it. However, soon after the\u00a0Algemeyne entsiklopedye\u00a0(General Encyclopedia) was announced, Hitler\u2019s rise to power forced its editors to flee to Paris. The scope and mission of the project repeatedly changed before its final volumes were published in New York City in 1966.<br \/>\n<i>The Holocaust &amp; the Exile of Yiddish<\/i>\u00a0untangles the complicated saga of the\u00a0<i>Algemeyne entsiklopedye<\/i>\u00a0and its editors. The editors continued to publish volumes and revise the encyclopedia\u2019s mission while their primary audience, Eastern European Jews, faced persecution and genocide under Nazi rule, and the challenge of reestablishing themselves in the first decades after World War II. Historian Barry Trachtenberg reveals how, over the course of the middle decades of the twentieth century, the project sparked tremendous controversy in Jewish cultural and political circles, which debated what the purpose of a Yiddish encyclopedia should be, as well as what knowledge and perspectives it should contain. Nevertheless, this is not only a story about destruction and trauma, but also one of tenacity and continuity, as the encyclopedia\u2019s compilers strove to preserve the heritage of Yiddish culture, to document its near-total extermination in the Holocaust, and to chart its path into the future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>Barry Trachtenberg<\/strong> is the Rubin Presidential Chair of Jewish History and Professor of History at Wake Forest University.\u00a0He is the author of three books,\u00a0The Holocaust &amp; the Exile of Yiddish: A History of the Algemeyne Entsiklopedye\u00a0(Rutgers, 2022),\u00a0The United States and the Nazi Holocaust: Race, Refuge, and Remembrance\u00a0(Bloomsbury, 2018), and\u00a0The Revolutionary Roots of Modern Yiddish, 1903-1917\u00a0(Syracuse, 2008).
