This article proposes a methodology for understanding the business networks and mental maps of Jewish communities in central and eastern Europe from the late nineteenth and first half of the twentieth centuries. The methodology is based on scrupulous documentation of Jewish tombstones, especially the signatures of stonemasons. Through analysis of the signatures found in the Jewish cemeteries of Croatia, geographical networks become apparent, and we can reconstruct the mental maps of Croatian Jews, both in the Austro-Hungarian period and in interwar Yugoslavia. The Jewish cemeteries in some other central European cities serve as comparative material for our discussion.

墓碑、石匠和心理地图

本文提出了一种方法来理解十九世纪末和二十世纪上半叶中欧和东欧犹太社区的商业网络和心理地图。该方法基于对犹太墓碑的严格记录，尤其是石匠的签名。通过分析克罗地亚犹太人墓地中发现的签名，地理网络变得显而易见，我们可以重建奥匈帝国时期和两次世界大战之间的南斯拉夫克罗地亚犹太人的心理地图。其他一些中欧城市的犹太墓地可以作为我们讨论的比较材料。
