Jewish Identities during the First World War: A Franco-German Family Biography
This dissertation project focuses on the transnational history of the Frank family between Paris and Frankfurt am Main in the period between 1870 and 1920. It analyses the family connections and their cosmopolitan lifestyles against the backdrop of rising nationalism, anti-Semitism and German-French tensions in the late 19th and early 20th century with a special emphasis on the period of the First World War.
