Rabbi David Ellenson Eulogy for Dr. Gottschalk, 14 September 2009 vi • American Jewish Archives Journal TO our readers… In 1986, the Hebrew Union College–Jewish Institute of Religion (HUC- JIR) published a delightful “Tribute Volume” to commemorate the ninetieth anniversary of Jacob Rader Marcus’s birth. The booklet’s editors invited dozens of Marcus’s friends, colleagues, and disciples to write a 150-word response to the question: “What was the most memorable lesson I learned from Jacob Rader Marcus?” Dr. Naomi W. Cohen, then a professor of history at Hunter College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, was one of the many eminent scholars who happily contributed to this distinctive compilation of “Marcusian” lore. Cohen’s entry reads as follows: As a young graduate student I visited the American Jewish Archives some thirty-five years ago. There I met Jacob Marcus for the first time. I shall never forget his warm welcome, his gracious hospitality, and his keen interest in my research. He went out of his way to put necessary materials at my disposal. By his behavior, he taught me that a teacher’s encouragement of students consists of treating their work with the same enthusiasm and seriousness that he brings to his own.1 The story behind this special tribute edition ofThe American Jewish Archives Journal (The AJAJ) authenticates the veracity of Cohen’s testimonial to Marcus on his ninetieth birthday. Indeed, it was her own students and disciples who first urged the editors of this journal to develop a thematic issue wherein Cohen’s important contributions to the field of American Jewish history could be appropriately highlighted. The achievements of which her colleagues spoke transcended her well-deserved reputation as a meticulous and productive scholar. In fact, the primary impetus for honoring Cohen’s work came upon the recom- mendation of those whom she has generously mentored over the decades. For all those who contributed to this special issue, Cohen has consistently been a teacher who treated their work with the same enthusiasm and seriousness that she brought to her own. The proposal that The AJAJ honor Cohen took hold immediately. As a pioneering scholar of the American Jewish experience, Cohen’s frequently cited volumes are considered by most colleagues to be essential reading. It is also important to note that, for more than a half century, Cohen has been a loyal friend and enthusiastic patron of the American Jewish Archives (AJA). Over the decades, she has commended the AJA’s holdings to researchers and doctoral students. She remains one of the AJA’s most loyal boosters and generous benefactors. For all of these reasons, it seemed quite fitting to have the AJA’s journal fête Naomi Cohen. One of Cohen’s colleagues at Hunter College, Dr. Robert M. Seltzer— himself a graduate of HUC-JIR and a member of The Marcus Center’s Academic Volume LXI Number 2 • vii Advisory and Editorial Board—conceptualized this volume and, to a large extent, served as its executive editor. It was Seltzer who identified and invited the distinguished contributors to participate in this special publication. We are also indebted to The AJAJ’s capable managing editor, Dr. Dana Herman, who worked diligently with Seltzer to ensure that this tribute volume appeared in a timely fashion. Our readers will enjoy reading the fruits of their collaborative labors. Stephan F. Brumberg, a distinguished historian of Jewish education in the United States, honors his colleague with an essay that traces the evolution of Jewish education in New York City during the first three-quarters of the nineteenth century. Prior to the Civil War, Jewish immigrants had abandoned their interest in parochial schools in favor of public school education, despite the school system’s Protestant influence. Many Catholic immigrants, on the other hand, preferred parochial education. Brumberg explains why “different faith communities react[ed] differently to the changing education sector of New York City.”2 Genealogists and students of the German Jewish experience in America will benefit from reading Kenneth Libo’s article on the Obermayer family.

In Russia, Austria-Hungary, Germany, and a few other countries, official figures are obtainable. In the main, however, the num- bers given are based upon estimates repeated and added to by one statistical authority after another. For the statistics given below various authorities have been consulted, among them the " Statesman's Year Book" for 1910, the English " Jewish Year Book " for 5670-71, " The Jewish Ency- clopedia," Jildische Statistik, and the Alliance Israelite Uni- verselle reports. THE UNITED STATES ESTIMATES As the census of the United States has, in accordance with the spirit of American institutions, taken no heed of the religious convictions of American citizens, whether native-born or natural- ized, all statements concerning the number of Jews living in this country are based upon estimates. The Jewish population was estimated— In 1818 by Mordecai M. Noah at 3,000 In 1824 by Solomon Etting at 6,000 In 1826 by Isaac C. Harby at 6,000 In 1840 by the American Almanac at 15,000 In 1848 by M.

  • THE YIDDISH PRESS—AN AMERICANIZING AGENCY It Is
    THE YIDDISH PRESS—AN AMERICANIZING AGENCY By MORDECAI SOLTES, PH.D. Director, Extension Education, Bureau of Jewish Education, New York INTRODUCTION It is generally agreed that there is a great need to-day for civic instruction which will function more effectively. Our life and needs are becoming more complex; our stand- ards of civic behavior are being constantly revised upwards, and the civic responsibilities which our citizens must dis- charge are becoming increasingly difficult. Education for citizenship should occupy a central position in the public school curriculum. The civic pos- sibilities of all the school subjects should be utilized to a maximum, and the specific ideals of citizenship should become the possession of the pupils as a result of their entire school training and activity. In addition there should be provided, wherever neces- sary, aside from the general courses, supplementary in- struction to meet specific needs of pupils, which shall have been ascertained beforehand. This suggestion applies with particular force to schools which are located in neighborhoods of comparatively large immigrant populations. Wherever fairly homogeneous groups of children could be located, 166 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK it would prove best to make a diagnosis of the civic virtues ;ind deficiencies of the corresponding adult group, to es- tablish their prevailing civic characteristics, both favorable and unfavorable, and to develop, on the basis of the out- standing needs revealed, special supplementary courses that would tend to prevent or correct the expected short- comings, to improve the desirable traits and approved qualities which are insufficiently or wrongly developed, and to capitalize fully the civic potentialities of the younger generation.

ABSTRACT Jewish humor is a well-known, if ill-defined genre. The prevalence and success of Jewish comedians has been a point of pride for American Jews throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. What I undertake in this dissertation is to isolate one particular form of humor—namely satire—and use it as a way to analyze the changing relationship of American Jews to traditional religious forms. I look at the trends over three generations, the third generation (who came of age in the 40s and 50s), the Baby Boom generation (who came of age in the 60s and 70s) and the contemporary generation (who came of age in the 80s and 90s). When the satire produced by each generation is analyzed with the depiction of Judaism and Jewish practices in mind a certain pattern emerges. By then reading that pattern through Bill Brown’s Thing Theory it becomes possible to talk about the motivations for and effects of the change over time in a new way.

  • City Builder
    t5He CITY BUILDER ENGRAVING BY WRIGLEY PHOTOGRAPH BY REEVES BROAD STREET, ATLANTA, LOOKING NORTH Ma r c I 92 5 IP m HE GEORGIA RAILWAY & POWER COMPANY is deeply appreciative of the action of the City Council in voting for the elimination of un­ T regulated jitney competition with the street railroad. The action accords with our firm belief in the fairness of the city govern­ ment and the people themselves when fully informed of the facts. Plans are now being made for meeting the increased street railway trav­ el that is expected as soon as jitneys discontinue operation by increasing serv­ ice with additional cars. Present schedules will be augmented and speeded up wherever possible. We have arranged for immediate delivery of twenty new, large, modern street cars. We believe that the people of Atlanta realize that the enactment of the jitney ordinance is only the first step toward the complete solution of the transportation problem. We are confident that the citizens of Atlanta and their representatives in Council are ready and anxious to go ahead now with additional construc­ tive steps. Naturally the complete solution of the transportation problem will call for complete co-operation between the City and Company. Representatives of the Company are ready to meet in conference with representatives of the City to discuss all details of the transportation prob­ lem and arrive at definite conclusions and agreements for its permanent settlement in the public interest. We believe the time has come when every individual citizen, every busi­ ness organization and every civic organization should co-operate and get to­ gether on a broad constructive plan for building up the community.
