Chwila (the Moment), Jewish-Polish daily, published in Lviv (Lwow), 1919 -- 1939, 1919-1939
[Back to Formatted Version]
Brief Description:

Published under auspices or rather in-line with ideological milieu of Jewish national (Zionist) aspirations, this publication established itself as a highly responsive to all-things Jewish periodical. Chwila's narratives, reflective and reactive, often exaggerative have become intrinsic to Jewish national discourse unfolding in the course of 1918 -- 1939 (the interwar period) in Eastern Galicia.

Polish language Jewish periodical of centrist Zionist and overall a humanistic agenda never failed to deliver a message of a national paradigm, transpiring in the responses to everlasting challenges and occupying Jewish intelligentsia with the existential realities of perpetuating necessity of choices to be made here and now.
