The fundamental objective of the European-wide event European Days of Jewish Culture, which has
been organized since 1999, is to highlight the diversity and richness of Judaism and its local, regional and
national historical importance, with the firm intention of promoting dialogue, recognition and exchange
through conferences, concerts, performances, guided tours and other activities, which take place
simultaneously throughout the continent.
The European Days of Jewish Culture (EDJC) festival is held every year around a central theme that
serves as inspiration for all the activities that take place in a decentralized, pluralistic and open way from
the first Sunday in September till the end of November. The AEPJ (European Association for the
Preservation and Promotion of Jewish Culture and Heritage) has coordinated this event at European
level since its beginnings, giving cohesion, visibility and relevance to the activities organized. AEPJ official
representative in Georgia is Israeli House.
“People of the Book” as a central theme for the EDJC 2025 invites us to reflect on the profound role of
the written word in Jewish culture.

En el marco de las Jornadas Europeas de la Cultura Judía, dedicadas este año al tema El Pueblo del Libro, Marom Connect —plataforma cultural que difunde y conecta proyectos vinculados al judaísmo en español—, en colaboración con la AEPJ (European Association for the Preservation and Promotion of Jewish Culture and Heritage), invita a una tarde literaria en torno a dos autores esenciales: Mihail Sebastian y Clarice Lispector.
La editorial Impedimenta acaba de publicar nuevas traducciones de dos obras fundamentales del escritor judío rumano Mihail Sebastian: “Desde hace dos mil años” y “Cómo me convertí en Húligan”. La editora Isabel Márquez Méndez presentará la obra de este autor singular y explicará qué ha motivado a la editorial a recuperar esos textos, marcados por la experiencia directa del antisemitismo en la Europa de entreguerras.

Der junge jüdische Schriftsteller Johann Rabener gehört zur großen Gruppe der im NS-Staat verbrannten und ermordeten Dichter. Er ist heute weitgehend unbekannt und biografisch schwer zu fassen. Als die Nazis gegen die demokratische, kritische und jüdische Literatur vorgingen, war Rabener erst 24 Jahre alt, ein junger, wilder, aufstrebender Schriftsteller. Für die Zeit bis 1935 sind von ihm zwei Romane bekannt sowie verschiedene Texte. Thomas Mann lobt Rabener in hohen Tönen. Die Romane sind stark autobiografisch geprägt.
Dr. Joachim Frassl hat ihn als den ehemaligen Schüler Jacques Rabinowitz entschlüsselt und versucht, sich dem unbekannten Dichter über die Perspektiven aus Richtung Seesener Jacobson-Schule zu nähern.

L’ECUJE a la joie d’accueillir à nouveau Joann Sfar, l’un des plus grands auteurs de bande dessinée, pour une soirée rencontre-dédicace autour de son nouveau livre paru chez Gallimard : Cent ans sans solitude.
Dans ce recueil sensible et incisif, Sfar nous entraîne de Nice à Tokyo, de Saint-Malo à la Grèce, à travers des chroniques où se mêlent humour, angoisse et réflexions intimes. Marqué par les bouleversements du 7 octobre, il y dénonce sans détour l’antisémitisme persistant et interroge le paysage politique français, tout en affirmant son amour de la bande dessinée et en partageant ses projets, dont l’adaptation au cinéma du Voyage au bout de la nuit de Céline.
Ses racines niçoises, sa famille et son univers créatif apparaissent comme un rempart lumineux contre la solitude.
The Jewish Cultural Center Ljubljana has been organizing programs and events for more than a decade in the spirit of the European Days of Jewish Culture (EDJC), shedding light on Slovenia’s rich yet often overlooked Jewish heritage. In 2025, these long-standing efforts will culminate in the first official edition of the Jewish Culture Festival in Ljubljana—a three-day celebration that will also mark the 700th anniversary of Jewish presence in the city.
The Festival will present a multidisciplinary program highlighting culture, art, music, culinary heritage, tradition, and community engagement. Developed in cooperation with the City of Ljubljana, this new initiative seeks to establish a long-term cultural tradition while enriching the city’s diverse festival landscape with a unique, inclusive, and educational platform.
Objectives:
To present Jewish cultural heritage as an integral and enriching part of shared Slovenian and European history.
