19th Century German Jewry - The Buildup - Part1

The 18th century was a period of great upheaval as the reigns of ancient monarchies were cast off Europe's growing population. It was at this point that the basic tenants of religion were questioned like never before; examined under the gaze of enlightened minds. New ideas were introduced, and life took on a new meaning for many Jews. It was in this backdrop that myriads of Jews succumbed to the tsunami of secularization. 

Rabbi Hellmann takes the journey through this turbulent period, detailing the various personalities and events which makes this period so important to understanding the modern era.
