Judaica Bohemiae

Judaica Bohemiae is a scholarly peer-reviewed journal that has been published by the Jewish Museum in Prague since 1965. Originally a biannual journal, it came out annually in 1994–2008, and twice yearly in 2009–2022. As of 2023, it is once again an annual publication. Articles are published in English and German. The journal is included in the Arts and Humanities Citation Index (Web of Science), Scopus, and the European Reference Index for the Humanities and Social Sciences (ERIH PLUS).

Judaica Bohemiae focuses on the history and culture of the Jews in Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia and other countries of the former Habsburg Monarchy from the Middle Ages through to the present. It features original scholarly papers in its regular sections ‘Studies and Articles’, ‘Documents’, ‘Reports’ and ‘Reviews’. To be included in the main sections – ‘Studies and Articles’ and ‘Documents’ – papers must be evaluated by an independent peer-review process. Accepted are original studies and material studies of between 25 and 45 standard pages focusing on various aspects of Jewish history in the Bohemian lands or the wider Central European region, which provide new information, perspectives, theoretical approaches and assessments, and which successfully contextualize specific topics within existing research and within broader perspectives on the development of the entire society. Papers that apply modern historical approaches and connect different disciplines are welcome. To be included in the ‘Reports’ and ‘Reviews’ sections, contributions must be evaluated and accepted by the journal’s editorial board. The ‘Reports’ section features contributions that draw attention to important research projects, exhibitions and conferences, while the ‘Reviews’ section focuses on important scholarly publications relating to the thematic focus of the journal.
