Editor's Introduction EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION ollowing discussion with the Sydney Committee, we have agreed that this issue will begin Volume XII of the Journal. We have begun a new Volume to Ffacilitate the binding and indexing to Volume XI, which has itself grown to unprecedented length in record time. The extraordinary amount of material in our Journal reflects the fact that the last issue produced by the Victorian Committee, in November 1992, was a special one consisting of Rabbi Porush's memoirs and did not contain any other material. Its size reflects as well the continuing surge of interest in Australian Jewish history, as well as, we believe, the fact that the attractiveness and regular production schedule of the Journal in its present format spurs historians on to greater efforts. Volume XII No. 1 begins with three articles of considerable interest to the study of Jews in colonial Australia. Naomi Cream's very important article rewrites the his­ tory books, suggesting that the previously unknown Isaac Leo Lyon was the first free Jewish migrant to these shores. Muriel Hart Chesler spells out the early history of the Hart family, demonstrating the importance of viewing the British Empire as a unit of Jewish history. The author's father was born in Melbourne, while Rabbi Dr. John Levi, a member of our Editorial Committee, is, it would seem, descended from Rabbi Aaron Hart, who figures prominently in her article. Graham Pont, the Sydney musicologist, provides much new information on the life of Isaac Nathan, the 'father of Australian music', based upon intensive research in England and Australia towards a new biography he is writing. Peter Love, the well-known Labor historian, examines the anti-Semitic phase of the career of Frank Anstey, the Victorian politician. Labor anti-Semitism was a real but unpleasant facet of the Australian Left early in this century, targeting Jewish (and non-Jewish) 'finance capital'. Two articles by Eliyahu Honig focus on early Zionism and Palestinian migrants here, while Linda Joseph looks at a previously neglected pioneer rabbi of Liberal Judaism in Melbourne. The difficult years of the 1930s are surveyed in three articles. John Dally examines an important literary movement of the time with anti-Semitic overtones, while Hilary L. Rubinstein considers the other side of the coin, a notable Australian philo-Semite. The editor (W.D. Rubinstein) examines the attitudes of both the Australian and Jewish press to the earliest Nazi anti-Semitism. Jewish Carlton, today viewed with so much nostalgia, has received surprisingly little coverage by historians. This is rectified in two articles as Malcolm J. Turnbull examines the history of the largest synagogue in the area, and Miriam Kuna recalls what living in Jewish Carlton was actually like. Two articles deal with the period of World War Two. Rodney Gouttman's article shows how the federal government regarded the Zionist Revisionist movement as a potential security threat, while Paul R. Bartrop recounts the previously untold story of wartime alien internees from Singapore. Walter Jona adds a third article with a military theme, examining the important history of the Victorian Association of Jewish Ex-Servicemen and Women, the major Jewish veterans' body. Three contributions concern the post-war Jewish Left, which has lately been the subject of much historical analysis. Two, by Lou Jedwab and Norman Rothfield, are autobiographical, while the article by Philip Mendes examines the outlook of 2 Editor's Introduction Jewish students during the 1970s. It should be unnecessary to add that this Journal is open to contributors situated at every point on the Jewish spectrum - as the articles of, among others, Eliyahu Honig and Walter Jona show - and that the Journal has no official viewpoint on any controversial event. (Norman Rothfield's article was written before the signing of the recent treaty between Israel and the PLO.) Finally, the editor briefly analyses the number of Jews in the most recent census and the important recent survey of Melbourne Jewish life released by the Welfare Society, while Lorraine Freeman concludes this issue with her popular feature, '100 Years Ago'. This volume also contains reviews of fifteen recent books, an obituary of Walter Lippmann, and other material.

  • 2006 Abstracts
    Works in Progress Group in Modern Jewish Studies Session Many of us in the field of modern Jewish studies have felt the need for an active working group interested in discussing our various projects, papers, and books, particularly as we develop into more mature scholars. Even more, we want to engage other committed scholars and respond to their new projects, concerns, and methodological approaches to the study of modern Jews and Judaism, broadly construed in terms of period and place. To this end, since 2001, we have convened a “Works in Progress Group in Modern Jewish Studies” that meets yearly in connection with the Association for Jewish Studies Annual Conference on the Saturday night preceding the conference. The purpose of this group is to gather interested scholars together and review works in progress authored by members of the group and distributed and read prior to the AJS meeting. 2006 will be the sixth year of a formal meeting within which we have exchanged ideas and shared our work with peers in a casual, constructive environment. This Works in Progress Group is open to all scholars working in any discipline within the field of modern Jewish studies. We are a diverse group of scholars committed to engaging others and their works in order to further our own projects, those of our colleagues, and the critical growth of modern Jewish studies. Papers will be distributed in November. To participate in the Works in Progress Group, please contact: Todd Hasak-Lowy, email: [email protected] or Adam Shear, email: [email protected] Co-Chairs: Todd S.

  • A Fight for Life in the Northern Suburbs
    A Fight for Life in the Northern Suburbs This resource provides an extended discussion of the Anti-conscription campaign in World War 1 as background to the digital story, A Fight for Life in the Northern Suburbs. Martin Bush Introduction The conscription referendums of 1916 and 1917 divided Australia, split the government and left an enormous legacy. The votes against conscription were the biggest success ever achieved by peace activists in Australia. These referendums were also of worldwide significance. They are the only occasions anywhere in the world that the citizens of a country have had a chance to vote on such an important policy regarding war and peace. This global impact was achieved through the work of many people organising and campaigning at a local level. A surprising number of the people, places and events involved in this history were connected to the northern Melbourne suburbs of Brunswick and Coburg, including politicians like Frank Anstey, labour activists like John Curtin and Frank Hyett, women;’s activists like Bella Lavender and Catholic Archbishop Daniel Mannix. This digital exhibition tells the story of the struggle over conscription during World War I as seen by these communities. Summary World War 1 was by far the bloodiest conflict in Europe for nearly three hundred years. In a little over four years, from July 1914 to November 1918, 10 million soliders and 6 million civilians were killed. Nor did the effects stop at wars end; the influenza edidemic that spread around the world at the close of the war, in large part due to the movement of soldiers, was even deadlier, killing between 50 and 100 million people.

  • Loyalist Jews During the American Revolution
    LOYALIST JEWS DURING THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION The Loyalist Diaspora The month of May in the Province of Ontario, Canada, is Jewish Heritage Month and to celebrate this let’s look back in history and examine the lives of a few Loyalist Jews, who, I believe during the American Revolution remained loyal to the Crown and eventually moved to Canada. But first, let’s begin by examining the American Revolution and the plight of the United Empire Loyalists (UEL). In reality, the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783) was a vicious civil war pitting Rebels against Loyalists. At the beginning of the conflict people living in the colonies were divided in sentiment; some scholars argued that one-third were for independence as a republic, one-third were against independence as a republic and were loyal to the King, and the remaining one-third were neutral. By the end of the American Revolutionary War, approximately 100,000 Loyalists were forced to leave the new United States and scatter throughout the British Empire. This ‘Loyalist Diaspora’ resulted in about 90,000 coming to what is now Canada. Even before the war started, Loyalists were being severely persecuted. For example, in Connecticut, draconian ‘Committees of Observation’ were established in communities to weed-out and enforce laws against anyone who was not a ‘Patriot’. Sadly, these committees were no better than government- sanctioned mobs. Loyalists were beaten and robbed, “tarred and feathered”, hanged, and at a minimum run out of town. Profiteers grabbed their homes, farms and anything else they could get their hands on. Connecticut passed laws to ferret out and punish Loyalists.

  • Towards a Reflexive Paradigm for the Study of Musics in Australian Colonial Societies (1788–1900)*
    2020 © David R.M. Irving and Alan Maddox, Context 46 (2020): 51–73. Towards a Reflexive Paradigm for the Study of Musics in Australian Colonial Societies (1788–1900)* David R.M. Irving and Alan Maddox Let no one say the past is dead. The past is all about us and within. — Oodgeroo Noonuccal1 When contemplating the musical activity of past cultures across vast geographical spaces and from before the era of sound recording, music researchers are confronted with multiple challenges. They must take into account the memories stored in oral histories and textual sources, recognise the plurality of cultural influences and performance practices in complex networks of personal interaction, and grapple with the representational limitations of staff notation and struggle to interpret iconography before and after the age of photography. They must understand how sounds and emotions are linked to places and spaces, and explain how they move and migrate. * We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples mentioned in this article and the traditional custodians of the land on which the research for the article was primarily undertaken, the Gadigal people of the Eora nation. Thanks go to the University of Sydney for supporting this research through an International Research Collaboration Award (no. 63714). We are also grateful to the anonymous readers of the manuscript for their input and feedback, and especially to Graeme Skinner for generously sharing his advice and expertise. 1 Oodgeroo Noonuccal (Kath Walker), ‘The Past,’ originally published in The Dawn is at Hand: Poems (Brisbane: Jacaranda Press, 1966).

UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF HUMANITIES Doctor of Philosophy STRIKING AN ATTITUDE: TABLEAUX VIVANTS IN THE BRITISH LONG NINETEENTH CENTURY by Elena Stevens This thesis examines one instance of the long nineteenth-century’s engagement with the Antique: the medium of entertainment known as tableaux vivants. In tableau vivant performances, men, women and children were arranged into motionless (or near- motionless) configurations, and presented to audiences in parlour rooms, pleasure gardens, circuses, public houses, exhibition halls, variety theatres and music halls. Many performances derived inspiration from Antique statues or classicising paintings, although some captured elements of distant cultures.
