SUMMARY:A Man who was a Museum. Vortrag von Yohanan Petrovsky-Shtern
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nA Man who was a Museum. Maximilian Goldstein and Jewish M
 aterial Culture of Galicia\n\nLecture by Yohanan Petrovsky-Shtern\n\n\n\n\
 nLviv/Lwów/Lemberg was a center of Jewish life for seven hundred years. T
 his city\, now in western Ukraine is exceptionally reach in history as it 
 belonged to Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth before the 18th century partiti
 ons\, to Austria-Hungary before WWI\, and to independent Poland between th
 e two world wars.\nThe idea of creating a Jewish museum in Lviv dates back
  to the early 20th century. Before WWII\, Lviv boasted two Jewish museums\
 , one functioning from the 1920s at a private apartment of the Galician Ju
 daica collector Maximilian Goldstein\, another\, established in 1934 at th
 e communal center\, as the Museum of the Lviv Jewish Gemeinde. Both museum
 s existed as rival institutions\, until Lviv was occupied by the Soviet Un
 ion in September 1939\, and then by the German Wehrmacht in June 1941. Bot
 h collections\, for various reasons\, ended up at the Lviv Museum of Arts 
 and Crafts\, which hired Maximilian Goldstein to work on the inventory of 
 several thousand Judaica collection artifacts.Using the life and accomplis
 hments of Maximilian Goldstein\, the public lecture by Yohanan Petrovsky-
 Shtern will elucidate the paradoxical fate of the pre-1939 Lviv Jewish m
 useums before\, during\, and after World War II. What happened to one of t
 he richest pre-war European collections of Judaica artifacts? Join us to e
 xplore how a collector saved artifacts and how the artifacts sought to\, b
 ut failed to save the collector.\n\n&nbsp\;\nThe speaker\, Yohanan Petrovs
 ky-Shtern\, is the Crown Family Chair of Jewish Studies and a Professor of
  Jewish History in History Department at Northwestern University.  His re
 search was supported by the DAAD Foundation\, Rothschild Foundation\, Fulb
 right Foundation\, Davis Center at Harvard University\, Center for Russian
  and East European Studies at the University of Toronto\, the Kosciuszko F
 oundation\, the Memorial Foundation of Jewish Culture\, L’École des hau
 tes études en sciences sociales\, National Endowment for the Humanities\,
  the Ukrainian Jewish Encounter\, the Lady Davis Foundation\, the NADAV Fo
 undation\, Israel Institute Fund\, and the Institute for Advanced Studies 
 at Hebrew University (three times)\, Jerusalem\, among others.\nEine Veran
