Mourning for Richard Levy

Posted on by Anna Menny

We mourn the death of Prof. Richard Levy, one of the meritorious early researchers of antisemitism. He supported us for a long time as a translator in the context of both the Key Documents Edition and the Stumbling Stones Biographies with great professional knowledge and linguistic sensitivity. We are very grateful to him for this important work and will miss it all the more painfully in the future.
