  • The Jewish Community of Spain, but May Cast a Favorable Light As Spanish-Israeli Relations, Well As on Spain's Image Among World Jewry
    THE JEWISHCOMMUNITY OF SPAIN Diana Ay ton-Shenker This article examines thepolitical dynamics of the contemporary Span ish Jewish community. First, the community's history, foundation, settle ment and early development are introduced. Then its organizational struc ture and function are addressed in the countrywide, local (particularly Madrid and Barcelona), and international (relations with Israel) arenas. The community's legal status is explored next. The community's character emerges through an analysis of leadership dynamics; Jewish identity, as similation, and integration; antisemitism and philosemitism.

  • Catalogue of Manuscripts in the Roth Collection’, Contributed by Cecil Roth Himself to the Alexander Marx Jubilee Volume (New York, 1950), Where It Forms Pp
    Handlist 164 LEEDS UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Provisional handlist of manuscripts in the Roth Collection Introduction Dr Cecil Roth (1899-1970), the Jewish historian, was born on 5 March 1899 in Dalston, London, the youngest of the four sons of Joseph and Etty Roth. Educated at the City of London School, he saw active service in France in 1918 and then read history at Merton College, Oxford, obtaining a first class degree in modern history in 1922, and a DPhil in 1924; his thesis was published in 1925 as The Last Florentine Republic. In 1928 he married Irene Rosalind Davis. They had no children. Roth soon turned to Jewish studies, his interest from childhood, when he had a traditional religious education and learned Hebrew from the Cairo Genizah scholar Jacob Mann. He supported himself by freelance writing until in 1939 he received a specially created readership in post-biblical Jewish studies at the University of Oxford, where he taught until his retirement in 1964. He then settled in Israel and divided his last years between New York, where he was visiting professor at Queens’ College in City University and Stern College, and Jerusalem. He died in Jerusalem on 21 June 1970. Roth’s literary output was immense, ranging from definitive histories of the Jews both globally and in several particular countries, to bibliographical works, studies of painting, scholarly research, notably on the Dead Sea scrolls, and biographical works. But his crowning achievement was the editorship of the Encyclopaedia Judaica, which appeared in the year of his death. Throughout his life Roth collected both books and manuscripts, and art objects.

  • Francoist Spain and Egyptian Jews, 1956-1968
    Rev23-01 30/8/06 23:25 Página 21 Raanan Rein* ➲ Diplomacy, Propaganda, and Humanitarian Gestures: Francoist Spain and Egyptian Jews, 1956-1968 Abstract: Historians still debate over the help extended by Francoist Spain to European Jews during the Holocaust. The Spanish dictatorship always exaggerated the extent of this assistance. This propagandist effort on the part of the Spanish regime to portray itself as the savior of Jews in distress, especially Jews of Sephardic origin, was put to the test during the 1950s and 1960s, when Madrid was asked to help Egyptian Jews following the 1956 and 1967 wars in the Middle East. Based on research in Spanish and Israeli archives, this article argues that: a) Spain could have done more to help Egyptian Jews. Its policy was unclear and inconsistent. Moreover, the assistance that was finally given was intended mainly to improve the dic- tatorship’s image in the eyes of Western democratic public opinion; b) the Francoist dic- tatorship did its best to prevent the settlement of Jews in Spain; c) the help extended to Egyptian Jews owed more to the initiatives of individual Spanish diplomats than to the policy adopted by the Spanish government; d) all this notwithstanding, the help given by Spain to Egyptian Jews should be appreciated and considered within the context of its overall effort to save Jews in distress in other Arab countries in the post-World War II period. Keywords: Franco Regime; Egyptian Jewry; History; Spain; 20th Century. Sixty years after the end of World War II, scholars are still vigorously debating the extent of the help given by Francoist Spain to save Jews during the Holocaust.1 How many Jews were saved thanks to Spain’s assistance? Did the Franco regime adopt a clear and consistent policy towards the Jewish plight? What were the motives behind the fre- quent mutations and reversals in the decisions made by the government of the dictator- ship when it had to deal with this issue? With the conclusion of the world conflict, Spain found itself isolated in the international arena.

    Edwin Seroussi – annotated bibliography of a few holdings at UT Libraries Prepared by Uri Kolodney, Hebrew, Jewish, and Israel Studies Librarian, UT Libraries. August 23, 2019. The UT Libraries hold 25 items of which Edwin Seroussi is either an author, editor, or a musical advisor. Below is a small sample of those holdings. Cancionero sefardí / Alberto Hemsi ; edited and with an introduction by Edwin Seroussi in collaboration with Paloma Díaz-Mas, José Manuel Pedrosa and Elena Romero (Yuval music series #4). Jerusalem : The Jewish Music Research Centre, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, 1995. Edwin Seroussi has selected the Turko-Balkan Jewish melodies and texts published in this volume from a much larger collection of ethnic materials amassed by the musician Alberto Hemsi. The Cancionero sefardi presents 62 melodic items and 171 poems or lyric texts, separated into the four somewhat overlapping genres of romances, canciones, coplas, and oraciones en ladino. (Irene Heskes, book review. Notes, Second Series, Vol. 56, No. 2 (Dec., 1999), pp. 496-500. Music Library Association. https://www.jstor.org/stable/900052) Incipitario sefardí : el cancionero judeoespañol en fuentes hebreas : siglos XV- XIX / Edwin Seroussi ; con la colaboración de Rivka Havassy y la participación de Paola Díaz-Mas ... [et al.]. Publicaciones de estudios sefardíes ; no. 12. Madrid : Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, 2009. The incipits that are cataloged and studied in this work are musical codes expressed through short literary texts that appear in handwritten and printed sacred Hebrew poetry (Piyut) from the 15th century and on. The Incipitario Sefardí is based on a reading of 153 handwritten and printed Hebrew texts, the great majority unknown in this sense.

  • North Africa
    North Africa ALGERIA REMIER MENDES-FRANCE'S solemn proclamation of Tunisian autonomy on P August 1, 1954, set off a great wave of hope, and to some extent of impatience as well, among the Moslem nationalists of all North Africa. The triumph of the Neo-Destour in Tunisia was a preface to fundamental struc- tural changes in all North Africa. The tragic events which took place in Morocco on August 4, 1954, when six Jews at Petitjean were frightfully mutilated and burnt by Moslem rioters, gave some idea of the impatience aroused by the recent reforms introduced by France. When he heard of the events in Tunisia, the Algerian nationalist leader Ferhat Abbas sent Premier Mendes-France a telegram from Cairo, where he was a refugee, declaring that the Algerian people confidently hailed Mendes- France's coming to power and hoped that Algeria also would be included in the program of reforms which he was carrying out. Algeria posed sociological problems which were on the whole identical with those of Morocco and Tunisia, as well as of those other African coun- tries (South Africa, Kenya, Tanganyika, Uganda) where the interests of the European colonists were coming into conflict with the interests of the natives. Nevertheless, Algerian nationalism had developed along a different path from those of the Neo-Destour Party in Tunis and the Istiqlal Party in Morocco. Messali Hadj's Popular Party and Ferhat Abbas's Democratic Union of the Manifesto had been active only underground; on the surface there had been complete peace. Only occasional police measures had been neces- sary.
