Bøker av Marc David Baer

A major new history of the six-hundred-year dynasty that connected East to West as never before.

Hugo Marcus (1880-1966) was a man of many names and many identities. In German, Jew, Muslim, Gay, Marc David Baer uses Marcus's life and work to shed new light on a striking range of subjects, including German Jewish history and anti-Semitism, Islam in Europe, Muslim-Jewish relations, and the history of the gay rights struggle.

This is the first study of the modern history, experience, and ethno-religious identity of the Doenme, the descendants of seventeenth-century Jewish converts to Islam, in Ottoman and Greek Salonica and in Turkish Istanbul.
