Her long, straight hair cascaded down the page, fram- ing the charming face selected to represent a group of ten “lovely young film stars of Europe.” Calling the young women “stars” was something of a misnomer, since all were relative newcomers. But given that Life was then enjoying a peak circulation of 8.5 million copies, chances were good that at least some of the featured starlets would soon develop into true celebrities.1 Each had been handed an express ticket to fame, none more so than the woman showcased on the cover. What would it take for Catherine’s big break to result in true celebrity? If stars achieve their status primarily because they are uniquely gifted, attractive, and interesting people, then the answer would depend on the aspiring performer herself. If the public plays the chief role in determin- ing who becomes a celebrity, then Catherine’s success would depend on how well she realized its collective ideals and desires. And if the power to confer stardom resides first and foremost with the media, then publicity alone would do the trick. Each of these three explanations of how celebrity works has received considerable support among both scholars and the general public.

  • The First Exhibition of the Art Collection of the Jewish Community Berlin1
    The First Exhibition of the Art Collection of the Jewish Community Berlin1 From the report on the opening day by Moritz Stern Out of the great wealth of precious material our collection contains, only part of it can be exhibited due to limited space: an exhibition, I assembled from Albert Wolf’s donation, from acquisitions made, and from loans from the Community with the addition of several library treasures2. A so-called “Guide through the Exhibition,” it is to be hoped, will soon provide the necessary orientation. For today, the following overview shall offer a kind of substitute. Only few antiquities from Palestine can be found in Europe. These are solely owed to excavations. Wolf managed to acquire several that give us insight into private life in ancient Palestine. Reminding us in its shape of the worship in the time of the older kingdom is an idolatry figure (Astarte) from clay, even though it might originate only from the Maccabean period. The subsequent period, when the Second Temple was still in existence, emerges before our mind’s eyes thanks to an oil lamp, also from clay. We can see the inventory of Palestinian houses in the Roman period through various valuable glasses, a small gold chain, a little bronze lion, and other items. A valuable coin collection gradually assembled by Wolf is transferring us into the public life of the Jewish state. It is an excellent visual and educational example for our laypeople, but also a treasure trove for the archeological science; since it forms a complement to the collections of the Münzkabinett (Numismatic Collection) in Berlin and the British Museum in London.

"Life is a journey,'- they say. Certainly this proverb could be applied to me. My existence has been wholly passed in long journeys, and I have carried on my art in all countries. Under every sky I have personated the immortal heroines of immortal masterpieces, and I have seen the powerful accents of human passion thrill with intense emotion the most different peoples. I have brought into this task, often very heavy, my whole art conscience ; I have sought even to live the actual life of the personages I represented ; I have studied the manners of their times ; I have gone back to historical sources, which enabled me to reconstitute faithfully their personality, sometimes gentle, sometimes terrible, always grand.

  • JEWISH STATISTICS the Statistics of Jews in the World Rest Largely Upon Estimates
    66 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK JEWISH STATISTICS The statistics of Jews in the world rest largely upon estimates. In Russia, Austria-Hungary, Germany, and a few other countries, official figures are obtainable. In the main, however, the num- bers given are based upon estimates repeated and added to by one statistical authority after another. For the statistics given below various authorities have been consulted, among them the " Statesman's Year Book" for 1908, the English " Jewish Year Book" for 56C8, " The Jewish Ency- clopedia," Jiidische Statistik, and the Alliance Israelite Uni- verselle reports. Some of the statements rest upon the authority of competent individuals, as for South Africa and Curagoa. THE UNITED STATES ESTIMATES As the census of the United States has, in accordance with the spirit of American institutions, taken no heed of the religious convictions of American citizens, whether native-born or natural- ized, all statements concerning the number of Jews living in this country are based upon estimates. The Jewish population was estimated In 1818 by Mordecai M. Noah at 3,000 In 1824 by Solomon Etting at 6,000 In 1826 by Isaac C. Harby at 6,000 In 1840 by the American Almanac at 15,000 In 184S by M. A. Berk at 50,000 In 1880 by Wm. B. Hackenburg at 230,257 In 1888 by Isaac Markens at 400,000 In 1897 by David Sulzberger at 937,800 DISTRIBUTION The following table by States presents two sets of estimates. In the left-hand column is given the estimated Jewish population of each State for 1905 as it appears in the " Jewish Encyclopedia," Vol.

  • La Grande Mademoiselle Rachel
    LA GRANDE MADEMOISEMADEMOISELLELLE RACHEL A MEULAN 7 août 2009 Élisabeth FELIX dite mademoiselle RACHEL nait à MUMF dans le canton d’ARGOVIE en Suisse le 21 février 1821, fille cadette de Jacques et Esther FELIX, descendante d’une grande famille qui tient ses racines en Alsace et Moselle. Famille qui serait liée aux grandes familles juives d’HAGENTHAL le Bas dans le Haut-Rhin, regroupant les familles ALEXANDRE – ARRADY, CERF, SAMUEL, WORMS y compris la famille de ROMILLY et qui donnèrent des Rabbins, Banquiers, Industriels, et pour les FELIX quelques branches de Colporteurs assez pauvres, comme les parents de RACHEL qui sont acteurs, chanteurs, originaires d’Alsace-Moselle. Jusqu’en 1827 ils poursuivent leurs déplacements de ville en village au travers de l’Allemagne, la Suisse, puis la France. RACHEL aura également des frères et sœurs : Sarah née en 1818, Raphaël en 1826, Adélaïde en 1828 et Rebecca en 1829 ainsi qu’une autre sœur la benjamine en 1836. Après bien des périples ils se retrouvent à LYON quartier des Célestins où ils tiennent boutique de mercerie et brocante ! Jacques FELIX professe quelque peu l’Allemand à qui le lui demande et il enseigne également le chant à ses filles qu’il entraîne avec lui dans les cafés chantants de la place des Célestins le servant en quelque sorte d’impresario ! La Révolution semble avoir quelque peu porté un coup fatal à la prospérité de la famille FELIX qui se trouvera ruinée, le pourquoi de cette vie quelque peu débridée. Un professeur de chant du nom d’Alexandre CHORON va tout de suite remarquer la belle voix de la jeune fille accompagnant son père sur ses représentations et il la recueille, en 1831 à PARIS dans son Institut de musique religieuse.
