The zionist magazine „Židov“ (The Jew) and Macedonian Jews during the interwar period

A Zionist magazine titled Židov (The Jew) was published every Friday from 1917 to 1941, and was the only such magazine in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. Apart from reports on the socio-political events in Yugoslavia, Palestine, Europe, and the rest of the world, the magazine also contained various cultural supplements, polemics, advertisements, as well as obituaries, death, marriage, birth, and other announcements. A special column titled “From Yugoslavia” contained information on the activities of Jewish municipalities in Yugoslavia, regardless of whether said municipalities were of Sephardic or Ashkenazi origin. Since there was no significant contact between the Croatian and Macedonian Jews, this paper will examine if and how the Zagrebian Židov wrote about the Jews in Macedonia.
