The History of the Leo Baeck Institute

Tutzing, 23.-26. Februar 2004

Leo Baeck Institute Jerusalem

Organisiert von Prof. Christhard Hoffmann (Universität Bergen, Norwegen)

The idea behind the the Tutzing workshop was to give the authors of the project "The History of the Leo Baeck Institute, 1955–2005" the opportunity to meet and discuss first drafts (theses, outlines) of their papers with each other and with experts in the field. The workshop also gave an opportunity for fine- finetuning of contributions (to avoid overlap), exchange of source-material, practical preparations for the planned volume (as, for example, the preparation of a photo section in the volume: those who have photos of LBI - events were encouraged to bring a selection to Tutzing). It was understood that the papers presented are "works in progress" and not finished. We have scheduled this workshop at a relatively early stage of this project to allow for the discussion of concepts and interpretations, the exchange of ideas, and the revision of papers.
