Guide to Archival Resources for Jewish Studies in Edinburgh

Researched, compiled, edited, and annotated by Mirella Yandoli Edinburgh, May 2013. http://jewishstudies.div.ed.ac.uk/ Guide to Archival Resources 2

Introduction

This guide to academic archival resources is a subject-by-subject overview of what Edinburgh may have to offer researchers in a variety of research areas. Archival resources have been selected on the basis of their connection to Jewish individuals, groups, organisations, theology et al. Many of the categories relate directly to the Jewish community in Edinburgh and Scotland and/or Jewish religion and will therefore present scope for researchers in Jewish Studies and history. Other categories and archival listings point more obliquely towards more diverse subject areas such as musical theory, political theory and literature amongst many others. Overall the guide is designed to be as broad as possible and the Jewish connection that links them all can simply function as a research channel through which a range of subjects can be approached.

The subject categories are arranged alphabetically and each one is given a table with a chronologically organised list of relevant material. The different archives in Edinburgh are listed below. Along with holdings found in Edinburgh, the Scottish Jewish Archives Centre, based in Glasgow, and the Scottish Catholic Archives are also listed due to the relevance of their collections.

Researchers aware of more archival holdings or of items within the archival holdings listed below which have not been included, are invited to contribute their knowledge. This overview is not finite and the overall intention is that the guide serves as an initial glimpse into what Edinburgh may have to offer in terms of research and resources for research. If you do have any queries or contributions please contact Dr. Hannah Holtschneider [email protected].

reports are based on primary research conducted through questionnaire and survey work and report on a number of factors which would influence housing design and amenity provision. There are different editions or drafts of some of the titles, and some include original photographs or are typescripts.

Art

This category is comprised of material that either relates to art as a subject matter or is taken from art archives in Edinburgh. The three main sources are Edinburgh University Library, The National Gallery of Scotland and Edinburgh College of Art (ECA). The National Gallery does not have an electronic catalogue and therefore an appointment needs to be made at the archive department in the gallery itself in order to explore and view its contents. The Archives of Edinburgh College of Art and other institutions that merged into the University of Edinburgh, such as Moray House, have potential for further research. Edinburgh College of Art had studios in the area of the synagogue on Graham Street and later built near/ on that site. We also know that there were eastern Europeans that came to study at the college from the 1930s and through World War II who could have been Jewish. Researching individuals would mean looking through record books, fee books or staff records and then linking with other sources as the college did not note the religion of their students or staff. A few notable examples are listed below highlighting items that may be of relevance/interest.

The Edinburgh Film Guild was founded in October 1930 as one of Britain’s earliest film societies. Its first headquarters opened three months later and included a small library which was to form the basis for its extensive present-day archives. This archive, which is currently in the process of being catalogued, includes print materials dating back to the early 1910s and promotional film materials from as early as the late 1900s. During the 1940s and 1950s, the Guild was the largest film society in the world - its membership was only limited to 2,500 members because of the size of its partner cinema - and visitors and other contacts either brought or sent it countless rare and unique items of film culture. It currently houses approximately 50,000 film stills from dozens of countries, many rare film posters, hundreds of books (mainly relating to film criticism and amateur film production) and numerous publications from a span of over one hundred years. Since 1947, these have been housed in three locations named Film House/Filmhouse, the first of which was the first cinema in the world purpose-built exclusively for the use of a film society; the present Filmhouse was opened in 1978 and is now an independent cinema which houses the Guild as well as being the headquarters for the Edinburgh International Film Festival.

The Guild’s most lasting single contribution to film culture was its creation of the First International Festival of Documentary Films in 1947. This, the first international film festival in Britain and the first festival anywhere in the world dedicated to documentary filmmaking, eventually became the present-day Edinburgh International Film Festival, now approaching its 67th edition and the longest continually-running film festival in the world. Its main archives are now housed at the National Library of Scotland and are also currently in the process of being catalogued. These run to nearly 1,500 folders of materials dating back to the early 1940s (before the Festival’s first edition) through to the present day. These mainly include correspondence with the Festival, as well as promotional materials for films included in or submitted to the Festival, and internal documents discussing the decisions and logistics of the Festival and its organisation, particularly since it became an independent body separate from the Film Guild in the late 1950s.

In addition to all of the external and operation documents mentioned are the various publications of the Film Guild, Film Festival and, since its inauguration in 1968 (as the Edinburgh Film Theatre), Filmhouse, all of which detail the long history of the films which these organisations have brought to Edinburgh from all over the, including many for which it is believed no other materials may exist in English.

Below is a comprehensive guide to the material that can be connected to Jewish film makers or subject matters found in the Filmhouse between 1947 (First International Festival of Films) and 1956. The table is designed to give an in- depth look at what might be found in other decades if the film/director being researched was featured at one of Cinema Filmhouse Cinema, 88 Lothian Road, Edinburgh EH3 9BZ

Edinburgh’s film festivals. Once the collection is catalogued, a comprehensive list may be accessible for the entirety of the festival’s history.

Also worth mentioning is the printed Sight and Sound archive that the Filmhouse has on the premises (selectively from 1932 to present). Another publication worth mentioning is the Monthly Film Bulletin, which was published by Sight and Sound and ran from 1934 to 1991, when it was absorbed into the revamped Sight and Sound. The Filmhouse has the entirety of the latter publication and can be accessed along with other material by contacting either Marc David Jacobs ([email protected]), who heads the co-ordination and cataloguing of the archival holdings both on the Filmhouse premises, and the National Library of Scotland. A thorough guide for what can be accessed at the NLS site is forthcoming.
