Jan Heřman (1933–1986) – archivist and historian
Original language description
The paper deals with biography, professional carrier and scholarly work of an important post-war historian of the Bohemian Jewry and expert in Jewish studies, Jan Heřman. It explores his family background, under-graduate and graduate studies, work (since 1958) as archivist and documentalist in the then State Jewish Museum in Prague, external post-graduate studies (under supervision of František Graus), editorial work in Judaica Bohemiae journal and involvement in the international demography projects. The paper further describes Heřman’s tragical fate – the dismissal from the museum in 1973, the recruitment by the secret service and a suspicious death. The paper also evaluates Heřman’s published works on the history of the Bohemian Jews in the early-modern period, the historical demography and the Jewish cemeteries in Bohemian lands.
