This time we will visit Polabí, which, thanks to its high population density, provided good business opportunities for the Jewish community. At the time of the Theresian repressions, Polabie became an asylum for many Jewish families expelled from Prague. We will visit the cemeteries of Postřižín, Spomyšl, Brandýs, the large and important cemetery in Mladá Boleslav, and also a small, almost forgotten cemetery in Bosyně, whose mystery remains unsolved.

Music was a common part of ancient Hebrew life, associated with worship of the Lord, war and social events. Probably the most famous Hebrew instrument was the shofar, and King David also made famous the kinnor stringed instrument, but the rich instrumentation is far from over.
What other musical instruments accompanied Israel in biblical times? The Bible itself provides the basis of knowledge, supplemented by archaeology and comparative ethnomusicology.

From its Jewish community, many eminent personalities originate, such as the mystic Baal Shem Tov, writers Joseph Roth and Isaak Babel, former Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir and current Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. On the other hand, there are essential places of Jewish martyrdom in Ukraine, such as Babin Yar in Kiev. In the lecture, a walk through the different stages of the Jewish presence in this part of Eastern Europe will be provided by Prof. Dr Aleš Maver, Deputy Head and Department Tutor of the Department of History at the Faculty of Arts, University of Maribor.
