Einleitung Zu Beginn des 16.

Hintergrün- de, Verlauf und Wirkungen dieses religionshistorischen Vorgangs sind im Jahre 2017 aus Anlaß des 500-jährigen Reformationsjubiläums eingehend beleuchtet worden.1 Knapp 300 Jahre nach der Reformation ereignete sich in Deutschland eine zweite religiöse Umwälzung, als das Judentum von einer Veränderung erfaßt wurde, die sich in historischer Perspektive als grundlegend erweisen sollte. Es war nicht der erste grundstürzende Wandel der Lebensbedingungen der jüdischen Bevölkerung in Mitteleuropa. Dauerleitmotiv der Veränderung jüdischer Existenz war über Jahrhunderte hinweg mit ihrem Höhepunkt der Kreuzzüge im 11./12. Jahrhundert die Aufeinanderfolge von Verfolgungswellen. Im Unterschied zu diesem der jüdischen Bevölkerung von außen aufgezwungenen Schicksal wurde die jüdische Gemeinschaft im 17. Jahrhundert ein weiteres Mal, in diesem Falle aber von innen heraus, erschüttert, als sich unter der Anführerschaft von Sabbatai Zwi2 eine mystisch-messianische Bewegung herausbildete und damit weite Teile der jüdischen Bevölkerung Europas in Aufruhr versetzte.

  • Reform Or Consensus? Choral Synagogues in the Russian Empire
    arts Article Reform or Consensus? Choral Synagogues in the Russian Empire Vladimir Levin The Center for Jewish Art, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem 9190501, Israel; [email protected] Received: 5 May 2020; Accepted: 15 June 2020; Published: 23 June 2020 Abstract: Many scholars view the choral synagogues in the Russian Empire as Reform synagogues, influenced by the German Reform movement. This article analyzes the features characteristic of Reform synagogues in central and Western Europe, and demonstrates that only a small number of these features were implemented in the choral synagogues of Russia. The article describes the history, architecture, and reception of choral synagogues in different geographical areas of the Russian Empire, from the first maskilic synagogues of the 1820s–1840s to the revolution of 1917. The majority of changes, this article argues, introduced in choral synagogues were of an aesthetic nature. The changes concerned decorum, not the religious meaning or essence of the prayer service. The initial wave of choral synagogues were established by maskilim, and modernized Jews became a catalyst for the adoption of the choral rite by other groups. Eventually, the choral synagogue became the “sectorial” synagogue of the modernized elite. It did not have special religious significance, but it did offer social prestige and architectural prominence. Keywords: synagogue; Jewish history in Russia; reform movement; Haskalah; synagogue architecture; Jewish cultural studies; Jewish architecture 1. Introduction The synagogue was the most important Jewish public space until the emergence of secular institutions in the late nineteenth century. As such, it was a powerful means of representation of the Jewish community in its own eyes and in the eyes of the non-Jewish population.

  • The New Reform Temple of Berlin: Christian Music and Jewish Identity During the Haskalah
    THE NEW REFORM TEMPLE OF BERLIN: CHRISTIAN MUSIC AND JEWISH IDENTITY DURING THE HASKALAH Samuel Teeple A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2018 Committee: Arne Spohr, Advisor Eftychia Papanikolaou © 2018 Samuel Teeple All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Arne Spohr, Advisor During the first decades of the nineteenth century, Israel Jacobson (1768-1828) created a radically new service that drew upon forms of worship most commonly associated with the Protestant faith. After finding inspiration as a student in the ideas of the Haskalah, or Jewish Enlightenment, Jacobson became committed to revitalizing and modernizing Judaism. Musically, Jacobson’s service was characterized by its use of songs modeled after Lutheran chorales that were sung by the congregation, organ accompaniment, choral singing, and the elimination of the traditional music of the synagogue, a custom that had developed over more than a millennium. The music of the service worked in conjunction with Protestant-style sermons, the use of both German and Hebrew, and the church- and salon-like environments in which Jacobson’s services were held. The music, liturgy, and ceremonial of this new mode of worship demonstrated an affinity with German Protestantism and bourgeois cultural values while also maintaining Judaism’s core beliefs and morals. In this thesis, I argue that Jacobson’s musical agenda enabled a new realization of German-Jewish identity among wealthy, acculturated Jews. Drawing upon contemporary reports, letters, musical collections, and similar sources, I place the music of Reform within its wider historical, political, and social context within the well-documented services at the Jacobstempel in Seesen and the New Reform Temple in Berlin.

  • Restitution Report 2003/2004
    Translation from German RESTITUTION REPORT 2003/2004 SIXTH REPORT OF THE FEDERAL MINISTER FOR EDUCATION, SCIENCE AND CULTURE TO THE NATIONALRAT [LOWER CHAMBER OF THE AUSTRIAN PARLIAMENT] ON THE RESTITUTION OF ART OBJECTS FROM AUSTRIAN FEDERAL MUSEUMS AND COLLECTIONS Section 2 (3) of the Federal Statute of 4 December 1998 on the Restitution of Art Objects from the Austrian Federal Museums and Collections provides for an annual obligation to inform the Nationalrat of restitutions of art objects effected during the reporting period. The first report covered restitutions effected during the period from 19 December 1998 to 18 August 1999, the second report covered restitutions effected during the period from 27 October 1999 to 28 November 2000, the third one covered the period from 23 January 2001 to 1 October 2001, the fourth report covered the period from 10 April 2002 to 3 December 2002 and the fifth one covered the period from 11 March 2003 to 27 January 2004. All five reports were acknowledged by the Nationalrat. The purpose of the Restitution Act is to restitute art objects from the Austrian federal museums and collections which passed into the ownership of the Republic of Austria in the course or as a consequence of Nazi tyranny to the original owners or their legal successors. In order to fulfil this mission of the Act a systematic and complete review of the entire inventory of the Austrian federal museums and collections as to their provenance is necessary. The Commission for Provenance Research established in 1998 is fulfilling this task. The staff of the Commission is working in the individual federal museums and collections, where they inspect the inventories, archives and objects themselves as to indications of provenance, which they follow using relevant databases, card files and files from public archives.

Guillaume Bonnet and Benjamin Fagard Complex Prepositions in Albanian: a first assessment Abstract In this chapter, we investigate the marking of nominal relations in Albanian, from case marking to simple and complex prepositions, on the basis of the (limited) literature and of a corpus study. We rely on two corpora, the Albanian National Corpus (ANC) and the parallel corpus OPUS, totaling 20 and 46 million words respectively. This enables us to provide frequency lists and distributional features of simple and complex prepositions, making it possible to account for the formal and functional differences between different types of simple and complex adpositions. We also address the question of the possible origin of CAs in Albanian, showing a possible effect of language contact.
