Vollers 73-77 DE COLLECTIE JOSHUA MOSES LEVY MADURO De mens Joshua Moses Levy Maduro Joshua Moses Levy Maduro (Jossy) werd op 12 oktober 1891 op Curaçao geboren. Hij was de derde van vijf kinderen en de tweede zoon van Moses Salomon Levy Maduro en Adela Naar. Hoewel Moses Salomon een zoon was van de oprichter van het familiebedrijf S.E.L. Maduro & Sons, 1837, begon hij een eigen zaak, Palais Royal, in Willemstad en verwierf spoedig meerdere handelsbelangen in Coro, Venezuela. Moses Salomon hechtte veel waarde aan een goede opleiding. Hij stuurde zijn zoons naar de lagere school, toentertijd het enige schooltype, en voor hun religieuze opleiding naar de bekende Hebreeuwse School op Curaçao. Joshua, Jossy genoemd, bleek echter wars van discipline en werd van school verwijderd. Zijn vader zorgde nu dat Jossy vloeiend Nederlands, Spaans en Engels leerde spreken, lezen en schrijven. Jossy vergrootte zijn talenkennis door zich in het Frans en Portugees te bekwamen1. In 1911 overleden zowel Jossy’s vader Moses als zijn oom Elias Salomon, de vader van zijn latere vrouw, en de jonge Jossy moest zijn vaders zaken voortzetten. Jossy huwde op 15 mei 1915 zijn nicht Rebecca Deborah Levy Maduro (Beca genoemd) Het was een gelukkig huwelijk dat 49 jaar stand hield en waaruit twee kinderen geboren werden: -George Joshua (in 1928 wettelijk gewijzigd in George John Lionel), geboren te Curaçao 15 juli 1916, overleden te Dachau 9 februari 1945 -Sybil Lois, geboren te Curaçao 26 september 1917, overleden te Parijs 26 januari 1995. George overleed zonder nakomelingen te hebben nagelaten in een concentratiekamp; zijn zuster Sybil huwde op 10 augustus 1946 in New York Jacob Constant Michiel Alvares Correa. Uit dit huwelijk werden geboren: George Maduro Alvares Correa, geboren te Santiago de Chili 10 juli 1947 Michel Roland Alvares Correa, geboren te Santiago de Chili 20 oktober 1948 José Manuel Alvares Correa, geboren te Santiago de Chili 23 mei 1953 Joshua M.L. Maduro werd op 1 januari 1916 benoemd tot procuratiehouder bij de firma S.E.L. Maduro & Sons en vervulde sinds 1 juli 1921 dezelfde functie bij de Maduro’s Bank waarvan hij mede-oprichter en aandeelhouder was. In het openbare leven op het eiland nam hij een prominente plaats in. Bij de schutterij doorliep hij alle rangen en eindigde als 1e luitenant; bij Koninklijk Besluit van 21 februari 1931/33, nr. 15 werd hij benoemd als lid van de Koloniale Raad. Hij maakte als afgevaardigde van Curaçao deel uit van de Nederlandse Delegatie Commissie bij de Wereldtentoonstelling 1939-1941 te New York. Hij was lid van de examencommissie op Curaçao, werd in 1948 curator van het Curaçaos Museum en was lange tijd consul van Guatemala en van Zweden.2 Ook in het buitenland ondervond hij grote waardering; zijn vele onderscheidingen getuigen hiervan. De regering van Guatemala maakte hem op 22 december 1958 Commandeur in de Orde 1 Gegevens ontleend aan Isaac S. en Suzanne A. Emmanuel, History of the Jews of the Netherlands Antilles.

Zweden: Consul 20.01.1917 (K.B. 24.02.1917, nr. 25), afgetreden 20.01.1939 5 van de Quetzal van Guatemala en Zweden benoemde hem op 4 juli 1924 tot Ridder in de Orde van Wasa en op 28 juni 1937 tot Ridder in de Orde van de Poolster3. Onderscheiden werd hij ook door het Cubaanse Rode Kruis in 1913 en 1938 en door de regeringen van Venezuela en Chili4. Jossy Maduro werd bij K.B. 9 op 22 maart 1951 onderscheiden tot Officier in de Orde van Oranje-Nassau. Hij overleed plotseling op Curaçao op 27 mei 1964. Jossy Maduro was al op jonge leeftijd geïnteresseerd in geschiedenis; hij volgde schriftelijke cursussen bij de Société Académique d’Histoire Internationale te Parijs en kreeg voor zijn werk in 1913 een gouden medaille, later gevolgd door andere Franse onderscheidingen5. De door hem nagelaten collectie boeken, genealogieën en documenten weerspiegelen zijn brede historische belangstelling. Jossy Maduro was lid van het Koninklijk Nederlandsch Genootschap voor Geslacht- en Wapenkunde De Nederlandsche Leeuw in ‘s-Gravenhage. Hij verdiepte zich niet alleen in de geschiedenis van zijn geboorte- eiland, maar ook in die van het hele Caraïbische gebied en in de geschiedenis van de joden die zich in dat gebied vestigden. Zijn veelvuldig verblijf in Nederland en Europa sinds 1928 vanwege de opvoeding van zijn kinderen stelde hem in staat archieven te bezoeken, zich te verdiepen in het verleden en talloze aantekeningen te maken. Nauw met dat verleden verweven was zijn belangstelling voor de herkomst van zijn eigen familie. Dit mondde uit in de genealogie van de familie Maduro, zoals die is opgenomen in het werk van A.J.C. Krafft6. Zijn joodse afkomst en opvoeding brachten hem in intensief contact met de Portugees - Israëlitische Gemeente Mikvé Israel te Curaçao, waarbij hij diverse bestuursfuncties vervulde. Bij zijn overlijden op 27 mei 1964 was hij lid van de Consejo de Ancianos, de Raad der Ouderen. Het bestuur van Mikvé Israel verzocht Jossy Maduro in 1928 een boekje te schrijven over de geschiedenis van de joden op Curaçao ter gelegenheid van de naderende viering van het 200-jarig bestaan van de synagoge in 1932. Jossy Maduro wendde zich tot de bibliothecaris van Ets Haim in Amsterdam, de heer Jacob S. da Silva Rosa, met het verzoek hem bij het schrijven terzijde te staan. Het boek verscheen echter nooit7. Uit zijn papieren kunnen we opmaken dat hij de wens koesterde ooit een historisch verantwoord werk te schrijven. Dit is er helaas niet van gekomen. De verzamelde gegevens bewerkte hij tot een artikel in het gedenkboek uit 19348 en opnieuw, nu in samenwerking met anderen, in een ander gedenkboek uit 19489.

  • “Tocante Ogoverno Politico Da Naçao Judaica Portugesa De Curaçao”
    volume lxxi . 2019 . number 1i 1 “Tocante OGoverno Politico da Naçao Judaica Portugesa de Curaçao” Leading and Ruling the Jews of Curaçao from 1651 to Today Ronald Gomes Casseres The formal regulations of Curaçao’s Portuguese Israelite congregation, Mikvé Israel,1 are important to understanding the more than 365‑year history of the Jews of Curaçao. Elements of these seventeenth‑ and eighteenth‑century regulations, or haskamoth—and of Jewish practices inside and outside the historic congregation—can be traced back to those of the Portuguese communities of Amsterdam and Venice and are found also in the haskamoth of other Caribbean communities.2 A number are reproduced in the authoritative History of the Jews of the Netherlands Antilles by Isaac S. Emmanuel and Suzanne A. Emmanuel,3 1 Mikvé Israel was founded by Spanish and Portuguese Sephardic Jews in 1651. Since 1964, the originally Orthodox congregation has followed a liberal ritual. Western Sephardic Jews are referred to as Spanish and Portuguese Jews, or often simply as Portuguese Jews. This nomenclature distinguishes these Jews from Eastern Sephardic Jews, who are found in Northern Africa, Greece, and Turkey. 2 Arnold Wiznitzer, The Records of the Earliest Jewish Community in the New World (New York: The American Jewish Historical Society, 1954): 9, 10. “The regulations of Amsterdam which served as a model for … Mikveh Israel of Curaçao and many others … had in turn been patterned after those of the Portuguese Congregation Talmud Torah of Venice … and certainly those of the Lisbon community during the fifteenth century.” 3 Isaac S.

  • The Nationalism of Exile Chapter 3 - the Critique of Zionism
    The Nationalism of Exile Chapter 3 - The Critique of Zionism Eric Jacobson This manuscript is intended solely for the purposes of discussion at IU-Bloomington, April 25, 2014 and not for dissemination. 1 Please do not circulate. For questions, please contact: [email protected] Having been accused of indifference toward Jews and Judaism following the publication of Eichmann in Jerusalem (1963),2 it is remarkable to discover that for more than two decades Hannah Arendt was engaged with aspects of Jewish thought and culture that would not be unfamiliar to Jewish Studies today. Her writings from the late 1920s into the mid-1930s concerned German-Jewish intellectual history in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. She worked with the Zionist movement in France to help youth immigration to Palestine in the 1930s and she wrote extensively on Zionism in the 1940s. In the 1950s, her research culminated in a major work on Antisemitism, and its origins in colonialism and race theory, which she titled The Origins of Totalitarianism. She was an editor for arguably the most important Judaic publisher, Salman Schocken, and contributed to the publication in English of major figures in modern Jewish culture, including Gershom Scholem, Franz Kafka, Bernard Lazare, and Walter Benjamin.3 The publication of The Origins of Totalitarianism launched her academic career in the United States but with it came a deepening interest in political philosophy and a decline in Jewish matters. Two major disappointments contributed to this. The first was her disillusionment with Zionism for failing to resolve the Arab question. The second was the reception of her book 1 An earlier version of this chapter appeared as “The Zionism of Hannah Arendt 1941- 1948” in Judaism, Liberalism and Political Theology, edited by Randi Rashkover and Martin Kavka, Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 2014, pp.

  • Why Did Hannah Arendt Reject the Partition of Palestine?
    JOURNAL FOR CULTURAL RESEARCH, 2013 http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/14797585.2013.768472 Why did Hannah Arendt Reject the Partition of Palestine? Eric Jacobson The political philosopher Hannah Arendt actively engaged in the problem of a Jewish homeland and the politics of Zionism in the years 1941–1948. She advocated a Binational solution to Palestine – a single political commonwealth with two national identities, Jewish and Arab, integrated in a federation with other countries in the region. In the crucial period leading up to the establish- ment of the State of Israel, Arendt became increasingly disillusioned with the Jewish Agency and the Zionist movement for failing to organize a Jewish response to Nazism (a Jewish Army) and rejecting the Palestinian right to a homeland. Gardez-vous bien, Messieurs les Sionistes, un gouvernement passe, mais un peuple reste.1 For more than two decades, Arendt was engaged with aspects of Jewish thought and culture which today would not be unfamiliar to Jewish Studies. Her writings from the late 1920s into the mid-1930s concerned German–Jewish intellectual history in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. She worked with the Zionist movement in France to help youth immigration to Palestine in the 1930s and wrote extensively on Zionism in the 1940s. In the 1950s, her research culminated in a major work on Antisemitism and its origins in colo- nialism and race theory, The Origins of Totalitarianism. She was editor of arguably the most important Judaic publisher, Salman Schocken, and contrib- uted to the publication in English of works by Gershom Scholem, Franz Kafka, 1.

  • Israele: Un Progetto Fallito
    Mario Moncada di Monforte Israele: un progetto fallito. I valori dell’Ebraismo traditi da uno Stato che o sarà bi-nazionale o è senza speranza 1 a Susanna Nirenstein Questo saggio è stato ispirato da Susanna Nirenstein, alla quale è dedicato. Il 10 aprile 2007 la Nirenstein ha scritto su la Repubblica un articolo con una visione ottimistica d’Israele. L’articolo ha stimolato la lettera che segue, ma il giornale, pur non contestandone i contenuti, non ha ritenuto di pubblicarla. La lettera diceva: “Egregio dottor Mauro, ricordando l'equilibrio di scrittori come Yehoshua o come Grossman, quando leggo articoli come quello di Susanna Nirenstein apparso ieri su Repubblica, provo rabbia. E' una rabbia che nasce dalla convinzione che gli argomenti e i ricordi storici parziali usati dalla Nirenstein non siano favorevoli agli interessi ebraici perché suscitano tre tipi di reazione non utili: - la reazione negativa di chi ricorda che tutte le visioni esaltate di un popolo, di una cultura e, peggio, di una "razza", sono state sempre nefaste nella storia degli uomini; - la reazione ostile di chi rileva la descrizione incompleta dell'epopea sionista con la manifesta rimozione dei crimini storicamente incontestabili dell'Irgun e della "banda Stern" che hanno fatto scrivere all'ebreo Benny Morris "sono stati i crimini e il terrorismo ebraico degli anni trenta e quaranta ad insegnare ai palestinesi quanto sia utile il terrorismo" (Vittime, BUR); - l’ulteriore esaltazione di quei fanatici che inseguono i sogni di un Grande Israele che vada almeno dal Giordano al mare e dal Golan ad Eilat, con i Palestinesi possibilmente cacciati in Giordania.
