Novi prilozi o Židovima u Koprivnici i okolici od kraja 18. stoljeća do 1848. godine

Abstract

Židovi u Koprivnici trguju već od sredine 18. stoljeća, a prve su se židovske obitelji u Koprivnici naselile tek oko 1800. godine, dok se u okolicu Koprivnice naseljavaju i nešto ranije. Do 1848. godine Židovi se polagano, ali kontinuirano naseljavaju u Koprivnicu. Iako se njihov broj u gradu kreće od oko 40 duša ili samo osam obitelji, one uspijevaju stvoriti jezgru buduće židovske zajednice utemeljenjem općine, groblja, Chevre Kadische i popratnih vjerskih sadržaja.

Jews were merchants in Koprivnica since mid 18th century, but the first Jewish families settled only around the year 1800. however, Jewish settlers in the neighboring area had settled somewhat earlier. Until 1848, Jews were coming as settlers to Koprivnica slowly but continuously. Even though their number was small, 40 souls or just 8 families, they managed to form a core of the future Jewish community here, establishing their community, their graveyard, Chevra Kadische and complementary religious events.
