The Jewish Quarterly was founded by Jacob Sonntag in 1953 and was published in the UK, through to its hiatus in 2019.
In 2021, the publication was relaunched by Australian publisher, Morry Schwartz, for international distribution.
The current editor is Jonathan Pearlman, who also edits Australian Foreign Affairs for Schwartz Media.
Previous editors have included Matthew Reisz, Elena Lappin and Rachel Shabi.
I belong to the generation which looked for a synthesis between our Jewishness and our Europeanism, between our nationalism and our socialism, between the particular and the universal ... Part of our upbringing was to revere the printed word, to adorn it with a power of its own.
