During Sukkot, we build and not just held as an heirloom.

  • When Philadelphia Was the Capital of Jewish America
    When Philadelphia Was the Capital 9 of Jewish America The Making of an American Jewish Culture JONATHAN D. SARNA Culture, Vytautas Kavolis reminds us, is not randomly and evenly distributed. Historically, "in each nation or international civilization, periods of increasing or declining creativity ... may be identified." There have been golden ages in the history of culture, and there have been dark ages, eras of cultural renewal and eras of cultural stag­ nation. 1 Edited by Jewish cultural life in Philadelphia in the late nineteenth and early Murray Friedman twentieth centuries falls somewhere between these two extremes. It does not compare to Viennese culture during the same period, but one can, nevertheless, identify a period of extraordinary cultural fer­ ment and institutional reorganization within the community that had considerable implications for Jewish cultural life throughout the United States. To borrow a phrase from Frederic Morton, the Jewish cultural leaders of Philadelphia, members of the Philadelphia Group, were men who created "not industries, but climates; men who brewed the very weather of our minds today."2 Working in their home city or in neighboring cities (New York, Baltimore, Washington, D.C.), sometimes laboring alone and sometimes in conjunction with non­ Philadelphians, they created the basic institutions, characteristics, and standards of twentieth-century American Jewish cultural life reaching almost to contemporary times. Philadelphia's role in American Jewish cultural life dates far back into the nineteenth century. Individuals like Isaac Leeser and Rebecca Gratz, along with institutions like the Hebrew Sunday School Society, Philadelphia the first Jewish Publication Society, and the Hebrew Education Society, The Balch Institute Press amply illustrate the community's early commitment to Jewish educa­ London and Toronto: Associated University Presses tion, at least of a rudimentary sort.

  • Isaac Mayer Wise: Portraits by David Philipson
    ISAAC MAYER WISE: PORTRAITS BY DAVID PHILIPSON By STANLEY F. CHYET Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, Cincinnati Skepticism is a great virtue in readers of history. It is not, to be sure, the rarest of virtues, but often enough readers forget the extent to which historians will repeat uncritically the views of their predecessors, thereby perpetuating notions that are at least dubious, or they forget the extent to which most historians seem unwilling to shake tradition. Nowhere, one supposes, is this lack of skepticism more likely to be found than in the realm of biography-which is why biographical revisionism is gen­ erally so salutary-and so unsettling. The biographical accounts of Isaac Mayer Wise are a case in point. The earliest biographical statements-they appeared shortly after Wise's death in 1900-depict him as something of a saint, and the later bi­ ographies tend to follow suit. 1 Surely, one would think, Wise's earliest biographer must have been one of his most ardent hasidim. The irony is that the creator of this particular tradition-or myth, if one wiIl­ would seem to have been consciously rather less than frank in his public appraisals of Wise. David Philipson was a member of the first rabbinical class to be grad­ uated from the Hebrew Union College and ordained by its founder­ president. Philipson spent his first five years as a rabbi in Baltimore and was then in 1888 elected to the pulpit of Cincinnati's Bene Israel Con­ gregation (now Rockdale Temple). He committed to his published writings about Wise a hagiolatrous view and tone very much at variance 77 78 ISAAC MAYER WISE: PORTRAITS BY DAVID PHILIPSON with the picture of Wise (and of Philipson himself) to emerge from a reading of Philipson's private writings.
