  • 'The Wealth of Nations: the Health of Society': 60 Years of the Wolfson
    ‘The Wealth of Nations: the Health of Society’: 60 Years of the Wolfson Foundation Neil MacGregor OM, Director, The British Museum Lecture given at Wolfson College, Oxford, 8 June 2015, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Wolfson Foundation Janet thank you very much indeed for that generous introduction, and thank you above all for inviting me to pay tribute to the Foundation and to your father and grandfather, and what the Foundation has done and what it represents. This is as you all know a year of anniversaries, and indeed June the month of anniversaries: 800 years of Magna Carta and two hundred years since the Battle of Waterloo, which has also cast along historical shadow. It is also, and for this evening’s purposes, above all, the 60th anniversary of the creation of the Wolfson Foundation, and the history of that Foundation is in the excellent booklet that has just been published, but I would like to pay tribute to its two founding figures, its founding Chairmen: the grandfather and the father of the current Chairman, Janet Wolfson de Botton. Isaac Wolfson, who was born in poverty in Glasgow in 1897, came to London to make a fortune with Great Universal Stores, and used that fortune, as you know, to endow the Foundation. And his son, Leonard Wolfson, who continued not just GUS, but also the Foundation, developed it remarkably. I never knew Isaac Wolfson, but I did frequently meet Leonard, and was the recipient of enormous generosity and encouragement, and also extremely testing conversations. It was always the first thing: this extraordinarily generous man, already committed to helping the institution that one was trying to ask for money for, always began with a very firm and ringing endorsement that the one thing he would not pay was VAT.

Jewish heritage in Scotland sharman kadish The Referendum on Scottish independence in September 2014 and the sweeping gains made by the Scottish National Party in the General Election in May 2015 provided pause for thought about the relationship between the Jewish communities that live in the five territories that make up the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. On the level of semantics, we must now studiously avoid using the term “Anglo”- Jewry with reference to British Jewry because the pundits consider it outdated.1 Popular usage of the term Anglo-Jewry persists, as a glance at the Wikipedia entry on “British Jews” shows. (I leave aside the whole 1 See Nathan Abrams, Caledonian Jews: A Study of Seven Small Communities in Scotland (Jefferson, NC: McFarland, 2009), Introduction. Jewish Historical Studies, volume 47, 2015 179 180 sharman kadish debate about the reality of the “Jewish community” as opposed to a series of “communities” as beyond the scope of this investigation.) American Jews also use the term “Anglo-Jewish” to refer to themselves in the sense of “English-speaking”, while Jews from English-speaking countries who have settled in Israel call themselves “Anglos” or even “Anglo-Saxim”. Perhaps “British” Jewry should also be avoided, not least because it no longer includes “Irish” Jewry, that is the Jewish community living south of the Republican border.
