Abstract
Institutions failed her completely, yet she did not fail scholarship, says Sabine Schmidtke of Hedwig Klein—a major yet (almost) forgotten Jewish scholar of Islamic Studies. We spoke with Schmidtke about Hedwig Klein’s tragically short but impactful life and the misconceptions that have obscured her legacy for far too long.
