An Evening About Remembrance, Enlightenment, and the Long Road to Emancipation

With Professor Günter Dippold, a topic that uniquely connects historical knowledge and cultural self-understanding takes center stage in Bayreuth: Jewish life in Franconia in the light of the Enlightenment. The lecture event offers a precise yet compelling insight into emancipation, social change, and the question of how history remains legible in the present.

Jewish History as Cultural Memory

The evening leads into the tense movement between tolerance, legal equality, and civic participation. Dippold, as a district home caretaker and recognized expert on Franconian history, places the developments in a larger historical context. This results in not a dry collection of data, but a literarily and historically condensed image of the region.
