Is there such a thing as a typical Jewish experience before world ii?

Answer 1Since all Jews possess the same Torah, why not? You can still see your "typical Jewish experience" in appropriate Jewish communities today.Answer 2In terms of lifestyles, hopes, dreams, foods, and level of integration with non-Jewish society, there were an incredible variety of different experiences in the Jewish communities ranging from the insular Hasidic communities of of the Kazimierz in Krakow to to the Jewish aristocrats of Vienna to the Jewish Secular Bolshevists, to the Jewish soldiers in the French Army, to the Jews of the Bavarian countryside, and so many others. There is nothing close to a typical Jewish experience in any era, just as it would be ludicrous to suggest that all Americans or all Romans ever had the same typical experience.

Did the last name Reid ever belong to Jewish Scots?

Although Scotland was possibly the only European country never to enact anti-Jewish legislation and/or expel its Jewish population, very few Jews lived in the country before the late 1800s. Jewish immigration came initially from Germany but then overwhelmingly from eastern Europe - Poland, Russia and particularly what's now Lithuania. Of course, the Jewish immigrants arrived with 'Jewish' family names typical of eastern Europe but, assimilating in the second generation (and particularly during World War 1 when 'German' names like Goldberg or Rosenblum were not a good idea in Scotland) many Jews adopted typically Scottish family names. So Cohen became often Cowan and and many Roths and Rothmans became Reids (both names mean 'red'). To that extent Reid is not an uncommon Scottish Jewish family name (it's my name in fact) but most Reids are, of course, not Jewish.

What are the origins of Jewish Guilt?

As a trope, "Jewish guilt" only came onto the world stage in the 19th century with increasing secular readership of Jew-written novels and plays. As an actual construct in Jewish relationships, the deep-seated desire of Jewish children to please their mother and the strong, sustained way that mothers get their children to perform their duties have been hallmarks of the Jewish family for generations. It helped to maintain strong family units and solidify observance of Jewish Law.
