The Jewish Quarterly has cultivated literary journalism of the highest standard for almost 70 years. It is an independent publication that explores Jewish issues, and issues of humanity from a Jewish perspective.
The Jewish Quarterly is published four times a year – in February, May, August and November. Each issue features a major political or cultural theme, investigated in long-form essays by prominent voices from around the world. JQ’s mission is not to advocate, but to investigate complex and pressing matters of politics, religion, history and culture, and to do so in depth.
Founded in 1953 by Jacob Sonntag, JQ’s new editor is Jonathan Pearlman. The Jewish Quarterly is published out of Australia and is distributed and accessible worldwide.

"The Shoah is everywhere in popular culture but, as it really was, it is nowhere." —Tanya Gold
In novels, film and popular culture, the Holocaust genre is booming. Streaming hits and bestsellers are playing a vital role in shaping our understanding of the past.
But, as Tanya Gold shows in this excoriating essay, the creators of these works all too often engage in crass or self-serving exploitation. In this new wave of Shoah blockbusters, the destruction of the Jews becomes a plot device, Auschwitz a readymade backdrop – and the truth is elided or erased. They pretend to be looking, but they are looking away.
Shameless is a moral reckoning. It traces the link between the glibness of these representations and the persistence of the hatred that fuelled the Shoah – and warns of the dangers when memory is distorted, and history is turned into spectacle.
Tanya Gold is a journalist whose work has appeared in Harper's, the Spectator, the New Statesman and the New York Times. She lives in the UK.
