Summary:

Das lange 19. Jahrhundert war geprägt von sozialen, wirtschaftlichen0und politischen Umbrüchen in Europa. In der jüdischen Gesellschaft vollzog sich ebenfalls ein modernisierender Wandel, der nicht zuletzt auch in eine Pluralisierung der religiösen Lebenswelten mündete.0Im Anschluss an die Haskala, die jüdische Aufklärung, und in einem komplexen Wechselverhältnis mit der aufkommenden Wissenschaft des Judentums setzten die jüdischen Reformer progressive Änderungen der jüdischen Liturgie um, die sich auch in der Architektur jüdischer Sakralbauten widerspiegeln. Ausgehend vom Jacobstempel in Seesen beleuchtet der Band0?Reform Judaism and Architecture? verschiedene Aspekte der jüdischen Reformarchitektur, die in Überblicksdarstellungen und Fallstudien zur Sprache kommen.
