In our previous talk, we explored the general world of the shtetl. This time, we will visit selected shtetls from across Eastern Europe — Poland, Lithuania, Ukraine, and Belarus. We will walk down their old streets, peek into Jewish homes, and observe how typical shtetl features are reflected in everyday life. We will examine the relationships between Jews and Christians, as well as the political and social life in these communities. We will also see how shtetl life evolved over the centuries. By combining old and new photographs with personal memoirs, we will travel through time to imagine and better understand the lives of our ancestors.
