Helms This story, told by one colorful figure among the anarchists of Philadelphia does not tell the entire story of the city’s movement, nor does one man’s experience with anarchism present the long and dramatic saga of the idea and its believers. The memoirs of Chaim Leib Weinberg offer an interesting sliver of a larger picture, holding to an exclusively working class, folkloric niche. The author was an incredible orator and story teller: these were the talents that set him apart from most of his contemporaries. Because he devoted half a century to practicing his oral craft, he left a clear mark on the radical culture he lived within. The Jewish anarchists were but one of several ethnic anarchist groups that flourished in the US during Weinberg’s career. Some of the other groups were the Germans, the Italians, the Spaniards, the Bohemians, Russians, and the French. English-speaking anarchists, both American and immigrant, were there in great number as well. Philadelphia had its share of each. During Weinberg’s heyday, Jews accounted for the majority of Philadelphia’s anarchists. In addition to the cases Weinberg will tell you about, many anarchists of Philadelphia were leading intellectuals of the city. To cite a few examples, Voltairine de Cleyre, Weinberg’s comrade, debated publicly on women’s issues with the famous paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope in an anarchist club in 1893. The anarchists conveyed their ideas so well that they convinced Daniel Garrison Brinton, the pre-eminent ethnologist who explored the religions and languages of American Indians. A group of anarchist physicians, all friends of Weinberg’s, founded Mount Sinai Dispensary (later Hospital) in 1899.1 Thus not only was the caricature of the drunken, terroristic anarchist that often appeared in the mainstream press not accurate, but the true picture was often the polar opposite.2 x HELMS’ INTRODUCTION Why have I, a goy, who can barely pick out proper names in a Yiddish text—much less read it—undertaken to edit and introduce this autobiography, which was written by a Jew, in a Jewish language, and which is mostly about Jewish people? The answer is that, if I didn’t arrange for the translation and publication of this book, I would not have been able to read it, and that would have made me lose more sleep than I could spare. My examination of these memoirs stems from my long-term research project on the early anarchists of Philadelphia, which is now near completion. Weinberg’s memoirs, which he dictated as an old man to a young fellow-anarchist named Marcus Graham in 1930, are one of the few sources that shed a focused light on my subject. After it was recorded, the manuscript lingered for 22 years before Weinberg’s comrades published it in book form. The book, in turn, has been forgotten by all save a handful of scholars who focus on the early Jewish labor movement. Historians of anarchism rarely refer to it, perhaps because there are so many other, more glamorous and accessible sources available. Weinberg left his mark on the common workers who heard his voice, which disappeared along with the sounds and smells of his audience. Unlike his contemporary Emma Goldman, whose amazing career has had the unfortunate side-effect of over-dominating the historical record of anarchism in the United States, Weinberg wrote no articles, edited no newspaper, served no prison term, and was shadowed by far fewer detectives. Because he gave his speeches only in Yiddish, the journalists who described his public appearances were usually writing for Yiddish papers, and so even that small body of evidence is far beyond the reach of the general public. Weinberg is a folkloric entity, and the present volume will offer the very first dose of his medicine that has been available for half a century. The major sources that fill in the gaps of this tale include the memoirs and letters of Joseph J. Cohen, Weinberg’s Philadelphia comrade; the personal letters of his other comrades, especially the celebrated Voltairine de Cleyre; the extensive published research of the late Paul Avrich, whose FORTY YEARS IN THE STRUGGLE xi eloquent and thorough books serve as the desk-references of anyone writing about dead anarchists; and information gleaned from contemporary newspapers, both radical and mainstream. These recollections are those of an old man who spoke from memory, sometimes over forty years after the events he described. He used no written records to clear the lens of time, nor did he ask others to send their recollections and thus build a more complete history. He gives a story without most of its dates, which makes it difficult to track many of the episodes for further information. I have given information for individuals mentioned as far as is available, but many names must stand as they are. I have done my best, and I hope that others will spot tales in this volume that have seen light in places where I haven’t looked. Weinberg’s accounts have generally squared well with other sources, and I have pointed out the few instances where there is an apparent inconsistency or a noteworthy difference of opinion. This was a man who gave thousands upon thousands of public speeches, but never, as far as anyone can tell, laid down a pen against a piece of paper. Thus we find his permanent testimony to be a snapshot of his mind, spoken on the moment, with no preparation. There has been a need to reconstruct the picture of the old anarchist’s family, associates, and contemporary figures in the anarchist movement. Weinberg has the noticeable habit of omitting from his tale everyone who did not fit into what he considered his world in 1930, if the person had once been his comrade. He makes no mention of any love-partner in America save Yetta, who was with him in his later life. He barely mentions the fact that he had offspring, and yet we can see that there were one or two. Also missing are his experiences as an advocate of Free Love (which he certainly was), perhaps out of respect for Yetta. He barely mentions Emma Goldman, who was, for three quarters of the period he writes about, the most famous anarchist in America. We can easily surmise that Weinberg had never forgiven Goldman’s bitter criticisms and public bull- whipping of Johann Most, from whom he drew his inspiration. In 1892, Most had treated the attempt by Alexander Berkman xii HELMS’ INTRODUCTION to kill the industrialist Henry Clay Frick with derision, which angered Goldman intensely. At the time, Most’s hardcore followers shunned Goldman, and in some cases the rift remained for life. Weinberg seems to be such a case. His name never appears in the long public saga of Goldman’s speeches and Free Speech fights at Philadelphia, with dozens of speakers of different radical stripes chiming in on her behalf. For her part, Goldman mentions Weinberg only once in passing as “an eloquent Yiddish agitator,” in her own memoirs, Living My Life, which were being written at the same time as Weinberg’s, and published in 1931.3 Perhaps Weinberg’s most glaring omission is that of his longtime comrade Joseph J. Cohen, who didn’t neglect to mention Weinberg when he wrote his own accounts of Jewish anarchism in America, and whose accounts included many of the same events and personalities. There was a falling out between the two at the Sunrise Colony in 1933, which Chaim never let go of. We have included Cohen’s remarks in the present volume. At the same time, Weinberg omits to criticize Samuel Gordon, his fellow Mostian, who was intensely despised within the movement for showing indifference when his former lover and benefactor Voltairine de Cleyre was near death and in need of help.4 He makes passing mention of Thomas Hamilton Garside as a labor activist, forgetting to mention that Garside later turned up as a Deputy U.S.

  • Franz Boas's Legacy of “Useful Knowledge”: the APS Archives And
    Franz Boas’s Legacy of “Useful Knowledge”: The APS Archives and the Future of Americanist Anthropology1 REGNA DARNELL Distinguished University Professor of Anthropology University of Western Ontario t is a pleasure and privilege, though also somewhat intimidating, to address the assembled membership of the American Philosophical ISociety. Like the august founders under whose portraits we assemble, Members come to hear their peers share the results of their inquiries across the full range of the sciences and arenas of public affairs to which they have contributed “useful knowledge.” Prior to the profes- sionalization of science in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the boundaries between disciplines were far less significant than they are today. Those who were not experts in particular topics could rest assured that their peers were capable of assessing both the state of knowledge in each other’s fields and the implications for society. Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington were all polymaths, covering what we now separate into several kinds of science, humanities, and social science in ways that crosscut one another and illustrate the permeability of disciplinary boundaries. The study of the American Indian is a piece of that multidisciplinary heri- tage that constituted the APS and continues to characterize its public persona. The Founding Members of the Society all had direct and seminal experience with the Indians and with the conflict between their traditional ways of life and the infringing world of settler colonialism. On the one hand, they felt justified in exploiting Native resources, as surveyors, treaty negotiators, and land speculators. On the other hand, the Indians represented the uniqueness of the Americas, of the New World that defined itself apart from the decadence of old Europe.

Wisse Kelly Scott Johnson Sholem Schwarzbard: Biography of a Jewish Assassin Abstract The thesis represents the first complete academic biography of a Jewish clockmaker, warrior poet and Anarchist named Sholem Schwarzbard. Schwarzbard's experience was both typical and unique for a Jewish man of his era. It included four immigrations, two revolutions, numerous pogroms, a world war and, far less commonly, an assassination. The latter gained him fleeting international fame in 1926, when he killed the Ukrainian nationalist leader Symon Petliura in Paris in retribution for pogroms perpetrated during the Russian Civil War (1917-20). After a contentious trial, a French jury was sufficiently convinced both of Schwarzbard's sincerity as an avenger, and of Petliura's responsibility for the actions of his armies, to acquit him on all counts. Mostly forgotten by the rest of the world, the assassin has remained a divisive figure in Jewish-Ukrainian relations, leading to distorted and reductive descriptions his life.

Bringing together original historical research on the radical press and close readings of Yiddish avant-garde poetry by Moyshe-Leyb Halpern, Peretz Markish, Yankev Glatshteyn, and others, I show that the development of anarchist modernism was both a transnational literary trend and a complex worldview. My research draws from hitherto unread material in international archives to document the world of the Yiddish anarchist press and assess the scope of its literary influence. The dissertation’s theoretical framework is informed by diaspora studies, gender studies, and translation theory, to which I introduce anarchist diasporism as a new term.

It was one of a handful of signed obituaries that its author, Franz Boas, would write in his long career. Boas concluded his words on Brinton with the following evaluation: The importance of his example for the development of American anthropology cannot be overstated. For many years, his voice was the only one that called us back from the excessive specialization that had begun to pose a threat to the general scientific point of view in itself. If anthropology is to find a firm footing in America, it is thanks in no small part to the labors of the deceased.1 Boas’s memorial to Brinton is a statement of devotion, an homage to a colleague who inspired and defended a collective scholarly enterprise—an “us” with which Boas clearly identified.

  • Towards a History of Americanist Linguistics
    Towards a History of Americanist Linguistics KONRAD KOERNER University of Ottawa 0.0 Introductory Observations The past 15 or more years have witnessed the recognition of the history of linguistics as a bona fide academic subject; indeed, given the existence of several journals and monograph series exclusively devoted to the subject, one may well speak of a professionalization of this subfield of linguistics. It is therefore not surprising that the study of American Indian languages, which has a 400-year old history, should become an area of interest to the historian — and historiographer — of linguistics (cf. Auroux and Queixalos 1984). The present paper is a modest attempt at a brief survey of the work that has already been done, together with a few observations of my own. As far as I can see, many of the earlier historical accounts — for instance of Sapir (1911), Goddard (1914), and Kroeber (1939) — were progress reports done on special occasions and for particular purposes, but not genuine histories; those by Wissler (1942), Edgerton (1943), and Stevens (1956, 1957) may be somewhat closer to our endeavours, and more recent accounts (e.g., Miner 1974, Haas 1978, Smith 1979) are definitely closest as they become more specific and detailed. It occurred to me that I could offer a paper at this Conference by referring in particular to the study of Algonquian languages, which were the languages most of the earlier missionaries, travelers, and amateur linguists encountered when they set foot on North American soil, as languages of this stock were widely spread along the East Coast and the North-Central parts of the continent.

    The Anarchist Sage/Der goen anarkhist: Rabbi Yankev Meir Zalkind and ​ ​ Religious Genealogies of Anarchism by Anna Elena Torres In geveb: A Journal of Yiddish Studies (February 2019) ​ For the online version of this article: https://ingeveb.org/articles/the-anarchist-sage-der-goen-anarkhist In geveb: A Journal of Yiddish Studies (February 2019) THE ANARCHIST SAGE/DER GOEN ANARKHIST: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ RABBI YANKEV MEIR ZALKIND AND ​ ​ ​ ​ RELIGIOUS GENEALOGIES OF ANARCHISM Anna Elena Torres Abstract: This paper examines the religious anarchist thought of Rabbi Dr. Yankev ​ Meir Zalkind, the prolific philologist, editor, Orthodox rabbi, and mentor to poet-assassin Sholem Shvartsbard. In the early twentieth century, Zalkind developed a political philosophy of anarchism from his study of Talmudic ethics, retaining the particularity of Jewish identity and cultural autonomy within a vision of life liberated from capitalism, militarism, statism, and institutional oppression. His capacious politics dissolve the binary between religious conservatism and leftist atheism, anticipating the rise of the “spiritual Left” and critiques of political secularism. Zalkind drew political inspiration from the condition of diaspora, forging a theory of anti-statism from his experiences of statelessness. Rather than retrofitting secular radicalism or “judaizing” anarchism, Zalkind articulated his anti-statism through the language and logics of Jewish scripture while fiercely opposing contemporaneous anarchist strains of atheism, universalism, and antisemitism. This paper examines a series of interwoven elements of Zalkind’s work and worldview, including his translations of the Talmud; his intense relationship with Shvartsbard, particularly their ruminations on justice and Orthodoxy; his discord with secular anarchists; his editorship of London anarchist newspapers; and his aspiration to build a Jewish anarchist society in Palestine.
