Creativity and Conflict reexamines interwar Polish Jewish history through the author's collected essays and scholarly responses of leading academicians. The work covers Polish-Jewish relations, Orthodox Judaism and the rabbinate, women's history, social history, and historiography, challenging prevalent myths about Jews in Poland.
“Fascinating product of a nearly millennia‑old civilization and the ‘warp and woof of Polish society, separate threads woven in and around each other,’ their society diverged in outcomes. The essays, well researched and written, offer refreshing insight into a highly transformative era.”
—Hallie Cantor, AJL
“Kenneth Levin’s timely, incisive, and thought-provoking study of this profoundly perilous psychological phenomenon should be read by every Jew in America. Alas, it won’t be.”
—Bruce Bawer, The FrontPage Magazine
