Love is one of the great constants of human history—and German Jews are no exception. LBI’s archive contains countless memoirs, letters, and diaries that demonstrate the complex romantic lives of German Jews going back centuries. In this episode, Mark Oppenheimer sits down with Christian Bailey, the author of German Jews in Love: A History. They touch on the transition from arranged marriages to love matches, the dynamic between mixed-faith couples in the 1930s, and how the Third Reich impacted the sex lives of German Jews.
