Society & Culture:Places & Travel
In today's podcast episode, Elyse Rivin takes listeners on a journey through the Jewish history of France, visiting key sites from Paris to Provence. The podcast highlights the cultural contributions and challenges faced by Jewish communities, from Roman times to the modern day. Synagogues like the one in Carpentras, operating since 1367, and museums like the Museum of Jewish Art and History in Paris, are explored. Despite a history marked by both acceptance and anti-Semitism, Jewish communities remain an integral part of France's cultural fabric, particularly concentrated in cities like Paris, Marseille, and Toulouse.
The episode also touches on other topics such as the end of scooter rentals in Paris, Annie's new electric car day-trips, and the French back-to-school season, "C'est la rentrée."
