  • Being a Yekke Is a Really Big Deal for My Mum! on the Intergenerational Transmission of Germanness Amongst German Jews in Israel
    Austausch, Vol. 2, Issue 1, July 2013 Being a Yekke is a really big deal for my mum! On the intergenerational transmission of Germanness amongst German Jews in Israel Dani Kranz (University of Erfurt, [email protected]) Throughout history, Germans1 have left German territory2 for different destinations worldwide, including: Eastern Europe; the United States; Australia, Africa and South America. Germans now constitute a global diaspora (cf. Schulze et. al. 2008). The vast majority of emigrants left German territory to seek a better life abroad. The new destinations attracted German emigrants with a mix of push and pull factors, with pull factors dominating. In the case of German emigrants there are sources depicting the maintenance and the transmission of Germanness, yet one group remains under-researched in this respect. This group is that of the German Jews.3 This article offers an in-depth, cross-generational case study of the transmission of Germanness of these ‘other Germans’ in the British mandate of Palestine and later Israel. While many German Jews left for the same destinations as other – non-Jewish - German emigrants, only a small number emigrated to the British mandate of Palestine (Rosenstock 1956, Stone 1997, Wormann 1970). By and large the vast bulk of all Jews from Germany fled to the British mandate as an effect of Nazi terror. Unlike previous waves of emigration, this move was forced upon them. It caused trauma (Viest 1977: 56) because it was determined by push factors, not by pull factors. This means that the vast majority of all German Jews who came to the British mandate of Palestine were refugees (Gelber & Goldstern 1988; Sela-Sheffy 2006, 2011; Viest 1977).

  • Graduate Center. Spring 2018. Doctoral Program in History
    1 City University of New York – Graduate Center. Spring 2018. Doctoral Program in History/Master’s Program in Middle Eastern Studies Room: Course Number: HIST 78110/MES 74500 Tuesday: 6:30 – 8:30 PM. Course Instructor: Simon Davis, [email protected] Office Phone: (718) 289 5677. Palestine Under The British Mandate: Origins, Evolutions and Implications, 1906-1949. This course examines how and with what consequences British interests at the time of the First World War identified and pursued control over Palestine, the subsequent forms such projections took, the crises which followed and their eventual consequences. Particular themes will be explored through analytical discussions of assigned historiographic materials, chiefly recent journal literature. Learning Objectives: Students will be encouraged to evaluate still-contested historical phenomena such as British undertakings with Zionism, colonialist relationships with Arab Palestine, institution-making and economic development, social and cultural transformations, resistance and political violence. This will be understood in the broader context of Middle Eastern politics in the era of late European colonial imperialism. Consonant and particular local experience in Palestine will also be addressed, exploring the effect of British Mandatory administration, especially in ethnic and sectarian-inflected questions of status, social and material conditions, identity, community, law and justice, expression and political rights. Finally, how and why did the Mandate end in a British debacle, Zionist triumph and Arab Palestinian catastrophe, with what main legacies resulting? On the basis of these studies students will each complete a research essay from the list below, along with a number of smaller critical exercises, and a final examination.

  • Gennan Exiles in the >Orient<
    ... Adi Gordon Gennan Exiles in the >Orient< The Gennan-Ianguage Weekly Orient (Haifa, 1942-1943) between Gennan Exile and Zionist Aliya1 This article will attempt to shed some new light on the self-understanding of the German-speaking emigrants to Palestine the»Y ekkes« by means of a close examination of the Orient: a German-language periodical that appeared in Palestine for one year beginning in the spring of 1942 - a short but tor­ mented period for the Yishuv and for the Jewish people as a whole. As an historical source, the weekly Orient reveals some lesser known ele­ ments both regarding the character .of the Jewish emigration from the Third Reich to Palestine and the manner in which it was abs.orbed. Some sch.olars have proposed a distinction between three sub-gr.oups within the German Aliya: the Old-Zionists, the New-Zi.onists and the emigration out of desperati.on2. The term Old-Zionists relates to the relatively small segment who were Zi.onist activists pri.or t.o their arrival in Palestine. The term New-Zionists refers t.o th.ose who made up their minds to immigrate to Palestine only as a result .of the Nazi rise to P.ower, after having experienced bitter disapP.ointment with the old homeland. This was, incidentally, not only the largest sub-gr.oUP within the German Aliya, but also the one whose absorption was the least problematic. Paradoxically, having arrived with no great expectations, the new-Zionists were spared the disappointments that affected many of the old-Zionists so deeply.

  • The Memory of North African Jews in the Diaspora by Mechtild Gilzmer
    The Memory of North African Jews in the Diaspora by Mechtild Gilzmer Abstract In the following contribution, I will approach in three steps the construction of memory by North-African Jews in the Diaspora. I will first trace the history and historiography of Jews in Arab countries and point out their characteristics. This will lead me to look more precisely at the concept of “Sephardic Jews,” its meaning and application as a key-notion in the memory building for Jews from Arab countries in the Diaspora nowadays. As literature and filmmaking hold a crucial role in the perception and transmission of memory,1 I will then present the works of two Jewish women artists, one living in France and the other living in Quebec, both with North African origins. I will try to show how they use the past for identity (de-)construction and compare their approaches. I choose the two examples because they illustrate two extremely opposed positions concerning the role of cultural identity. Standing in the intersection of history and literary studies, my interdisciplinary work considers literary and film as memory archives and subjective representations of the past not as historical sources. In referring to Jews in Arab countries this means in my article more precisely to look at the North-African Jews. That is why my article treats the following aspects: 1. Jews in Arab lands. A Historiographical Overview 2. A Special Case: “Sephardic Jews” 3. Jews from Arab Lands in the Diaspora - Literature as “lieu de mémoire” of Sephardic Identity in France. - The Example of Eliette Abécassis’ Novel “Sépharade” (2009).

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION A vineyard surrounded by a fence is better than one without a fence. Do not, however, make the fence higher than what it is intended to protect; for then, if it should fall, it would crush the plants. —Avot d’Rav Natan rs Abrams is highly prized in Manchester for supporting local Mwomen to birth according to the heightened standards of bodily governance that define them as Haredi Jews – a minority that is commonly regarded as ‘ultra-Orthodox’ and ‘hard to reach’ in the UK, claims which are critiqued in this book. She’s frequently told by women ‘you don’t understand how nice it is to have a Jewish midwife who understands you’, which is reflected in the warm smiles and greetings she receives while we sit in the neighbourhood’s busy café. Mrs Abrams makes herself constantly available for local birthing women, but the value of her role extends to more serious issues that can involve contestations around the interpretations of bodily care upheld by practitioners of authoritative knowledge1 in biomedicine and Haredi Judaism: When they go over their due date, halachically [according to Jewish law] you shouldn’t and the doctors will still pressurise, ‘we’ve got to induce you, you’re over your due date’. But the woman will ask the rabbi and if he says no, she won’t do it. You’re never compris- ing health, if it’s medically something, everybody understands. I think [her role] it’s to advocate where they are coming from.

  • Fragile Traces, Treacherous Sands: Ronen Sharabani and Micha Ullman's Intergenerational Encounter
    arts Article Fragile Traces, Treacherous Sands: Ronen Sharabani and Micha Ullman’s Intergenerational Encounter Hava Aldouby Department of Literature, Language, and the Arts, The Open University of Israel, Ra’anana 4353701, Israel; [email protected] Received: 18 March 2020; Accepted: 15 June 2020; Published: 23 June 2020 Abstract: This paper addresses an intriguing intergenerational encounter between Micha Ullman (b. Tel Aviv 1939), one of Israel’s most prominent senior artists, and Ronen Sharabani (b. Tel Aviv 1974), a young media artist. The two artists’ otherwise divergent practices converge in their use of sand and red earth as their primary media. The paper brings Mieke Bal’s concept of migratory aesthetics and Jill Bennett’s phenomenological approach to trauma-related art to bear on Ullman’s fragile earth installations and perforated sand tables, and on Sharabani’s projections of Virtual Reality onto sand. Also addressed is Sharabani’s series Vitual Territories (2019), in which digitally manipulated views from Google Earth probe geographical sites that resonate with migratory histories. The paper traces two main trajectories upon which the oeuvres of Ullman and Sharabani interface. The first category, “treacherous sands”, relates to installations involving sand tables and other containers of soil. In turn, the category of “fragile traces” addresses installations that feature various architectural ground plans modeled in sand. In these installations, sand is the quintessential terra infirma. At the same time, however, the paper proposes that through the haptic appeal of the medium of sand, these installations counter the pervasive anxiety of shifting ground with an augmented sense of bodily presence.
