New biographies on the »Jewish Scholars« portal
A portrait of Eva Hillmann, née Lenz (*1935) and Esther Bamberger, née Dym (1906-1963)

Two new biographical portraits of Eva Hillmann and Esther Bamberger, who both studied in Leipzig, provide information on the web portal »Jewish Scholars at the Leipzig University. Participation, Disadvantage and Exclusion«. The portal of the Dubnow Institute and the University Archives provides information on the life and work of Jewish academics at the Leipzig University.
The webpage is now also part of the collaborative portal »Jewish Histroy online«. This portal, hosted by the Moses Mendelssohn Center for European-Jewish Studies in Potsdam and developed in cooperation with the Institute for the History of the German Jews in Hamburg, offers a bilingual platform for meta-searching various digital projects in the field of Jewish history. The contents of the Leipzig web portal can now also be searched and found here.
