Naomi Lubrich (ed.) - Geburtskultur / Birth Culture. Jüdische Zeugnisse aus der ländlichen Schweiz und dem Umland / Jewish Artifacts from Rural Switzerland and Environs Peter Stein gewidmet.

Basel, Schwabe Verlag, 2022. 188 pp. Illustr. As new. Hardcover. Bilingual Exhibition Catalogue German English. Jüdische Museum Schweiz. In Judaism, the beginning of life was celebrated with a variety of religious rituals. The Jewish Museum in Basel preserves objects from Switzerland and the neighboring regions of Alsace to southern Germany and sheds light on a largely lost world of faith, fears, hope and happiness. Among them are amulets to protect mothers and children, pennants to anchor boys in the Jewish community, pillows for circumcision, birth registers of the circumciser («mohel books»), and cradles for the Hollekreisch festival. Scholarly articles by Tali Berner, Felicitas Heimann-Jelinek, Uri R. Kaufmann and Daniela Schmid are complemented by interviews with Dinah Ehrenfreund-Michler, Aviv Szabs, Esra Weill and Elisabeth and Ralph Weingarten (-Guggenheim), which tell stories about religion and life from personal and professional perspectives.
