Monograph No 13 PERIODICAL PUBLICATIONS FROM THE AUSRALIAN JEWISH COMMUNITY A Union List Compiled by Marianne Dacy University of Sydney, Archive of Australian Judaica, 2007, fifth edition. First Published in 1986. I. DETAILS OF SCOPE AND ARRANGEMENT OF BIBLIOGRAPHY Scope The bibliography lists more than 400 Australian Jewish periodicals as well as over 100 annual reports and yearbooks of Australian Jewish organisations currently held in some 20 libraries and Jewish resource centres in Australia. Some New Zealand material is also included. Arrangement The listings are arranged alphabetically, initial articles being disregarded. In the case of title changes, each sequence receives its own entry with title cross references. Subject to availability of details, periodical annotations include: place of publication, the responsible body, dates and length of run, size, frequency, editorship, content, the name of the printer, as well as where these periodicals are to be found. Titles of some periodicals mentioned in articles were also included, even when actual copies were not found. When it was possible to trace starting dates, these were added to Annual Reports of organisations. The plus sign "+" indicates that the periodical is still being published (shown at the end of runs) and "imp" at the end of a run shows that some issues are missing. The symbol n d means undated. II. LOCATION SYMBOLS AND ADDRESSES This list gives a key to the symbols for contributing libraries and synagogues to this union list of periodicals, annual reports and yearbooks.

  • Faith Voices Letter
    In Support Of Keeping Houses Of Worship Nonpartisan August 16, 2017 Dear Senator: As a leader in my religious community, I am strongly opposed to any effort to repeal or weaken current law that protects houses of worship from becoming centers of partisan politics. Changing the law would threaten the integrity and independence of houses of worship. We must not allow our sacred spaces to be transformed into spaces used to endorse or oppose political candidates. Faith leaders are called to speak truth to power, and we cannot do so if we are merely cogs in partisan political machines. The prophetic role of faith communities necessitates that we retain our independent voice. Current law respects this independence and strikes the right balance: houses of worship that enjoy favored tax-exempt status may engage in advocacy to address moral and political issues, but they cannot tell people who to vote for or against. Nothing in current law, however, prohibits me from endorsing or opposing political candidates in my own personal capacity. Changing the law to repeal or weaken the “Johnson Amendment” – the section of the tax code that prevents tax-exempt nonprofit organizations from endorsing or opposing candidates – would harm houses of worship, which are not identified or divided by partisan lines. Particularly in today’s political climate, engaging in partisan politics and issuing endorsements would be highly divisive and have a detrimental impact on congregational unity and civil discourse. I therefore urge you to oppose any repeal or weakening of the Johnson Amendment, thereby protecting the independence and integrity of houses of worship and other religious organizations in the charitable sector.

  • Halachic and Hashkafic Issues in Contemporary Society 91 - Hand Shaking and Seat Switching Ou Israel Center - Summer 2018
    5778 - dbhbn ovrct [email protected] 1 sxc HALACHIC AND HASHKAFIC ISSUES IN CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY 91 - HAND SHAKING AND SEAT SWITCHING OU ISRAEL CENTER - SUMMER 2018 A] SHOMER NEGIAH - THE ISSUES • What is the status of the halacha of shemirat negiah - Deoraita or Derabbanan? • What kind of touching does it relate to? What about ‘professional’ touching - medical care, therapies, handshaking? • Which people does it relate to - family, children, same gender? • How does it inpact on sitting close to someone of the opposite gender. Is one required to switch seats? 1. THE WAY WE LIVE NOW: THE ETHICIST. Between the Sexes By RANDY COHEN. OCT. 27, 2002 The courteous and competent real-estate agent I'd just hired to rent my house shocked and offended me when, after we signed our contract, he refused to shake my hand, saying that as an Orthodox Jew he did not touch women. As a feminist, I oppose sex discrimination of all sorts. However, I also support freedom of religious expression. How do I balance these conflicting values? Should I tear up our contract? J.L., New York This culture clash may not allow you to reconcile the values you esteem. Though the agent dealt you only a petty slight, without ill intent, you're entitled to work with someone who will treat you with the dignity and respect he shows his male clients. If this involved only his own person -- adherence to laws concerning diet or dress, for example -- you should of course be tolerant. But his actions directly affect you. And sexism is sexism, even when motivated by religious convictions.

Ranging from philosemitic fantasies through to longstanding anti-Jewish caricatures, understanding how Jews have been ‘imagined’ across time and place can shed new light on both historic and contemporary views of Jews and Judaism. This conference seeks to focus on these imaginings and asks how they have shaped views about Jews within and beyond the Jewish world, over time and in the present. Further, it asks how the creation of these ‘Jewish imaginaries’ has influenced how Jews think about themselves and their own societies. Where have these ideas about Jews, their origins, culture and influence crossed over into Jewish thought and writing and what has been its effect? We look forward to two days of thought-provoking presentations and discussions focussed on these vital and enduring questions.

It happened that his sons came from a wedding feast. They said to him: We have not yet recited the Shema. He said to them: If it has not yet morned, you are obligated to recite it. Babylonian Talmud Berakhot 2a What is the context of the Mishnah’s opening “From when”? Also, why does it teach about the evening first, rather than about the morning? The context is Scripture saying “when you lie down and when you arise” (Devarim 6:7, 11:9). what the Mishnah intends is: “The time of the Shema of lying-down – when is it?” Alternatively: The context is Creation, as Scripture writes “There was evening and there was morning”. Mishnah Berakhot 1:1 (continued) Not only this – rather, everything about which the Sages say until midnight – their mitzvah is until morning. The burning of fats and organs – their mitzvah is until morning. All sacrifices that must be eaten in a day – their mitzvah is until morning.

Tasmania . 170 Chapter 1: Introduction In Australia there are four Catholic cathedrals designed in the Romanesque style (Canberra, Newcastle, Port Pirie and Geraldton) and one Anglican cathedral (Parramatta). These buildings are significant in their local communities, but the numbers of people who visit them each year are minuscule when compared with the numbers visiting Australia's most famous Romanesque building, the large Sydney retail complex known as the Queen Victoria Building. God and Mammon, and the Romanesque serves them both. Do those who come to pray in the cathedrals, and those who come to shop in the galleries of the QVB, take much notice of the architecture? Probably not, and yet the Romanesque is a style of considerable character, with a history stretching back to Antiquity. It was never extensively used in Australia, but there are nonetheless hundreds of buildings in the Romanesque style still standing in Australia's towns and cities. Perhaps it is time to start looking more closely at these buildings? They will not disappoint. The heyday of the Australian Romanesque occurred in the fifty years between 1890 and 1940, and it was largely a brick-based style. As it happens, those years also marked the zenith of craft brickwork in Australia, because it was only in the late nineteenth century that Australia began to produce high-quality, durable bricks in a wide range of colours.

They will see that it too pos- sesses talent, the equal of the best endowed.” What kind of scorn had Modena experienced? In 1611 Thomas Coryat published a book about his impressions of Venice. He referred to the sing- ing in the synagogue as “exceeding loud yelling, indecent roar- ing, and as it were a beastly bellowing.” What was the basis for Modena’s optimism? “There has arisen in Israel, thank God, a very talented man, versed in the singer’s skill, who has performed music before princes, yea, dukes and nobles. He set the words of the psalms to music or- ganized in harmony, designating them for joyous song before the Ark.” Salamone Rossi, That man was the Jewish composer Salamone Rossi, who, the Mystery Man of Jewish Art Music Composers in 1622, produced the first book of its kind: a stunning setting by Don Harrán 5 of the synagogue service. “He is more talented than any other Rabbis, Politics, and Music: man, not only those of our own people, for he has been com- Leon Modena and Salamone Rossi pared with, and considered the equal of, many of the famous by Howard Tzvi Adelman 8 men of yesterday among the families of the earth.” Lord & Tailor: As we listen to Rossi’s music we become aware of the ex- Fashioning Images of Jews in Renaissance Italy traordinary accomplishments of the Jews in Renaissance Italy.

    Attachment B Modern Movement Architecture in Central Sydney Heritage Study Review Modern Movement Architecture in Central Sydney Heritage Study Review Prepared for City of Sydney Issue C x January 2018 Project number 13 0581 Modern Movement in Central Sydney x Heritage Study Review EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This study was undertaken to provide a contextual framework to improve understanding post World War II and Modern Movement architecture and places in Central Sydney, which is a significant and integral component of its architectural heritage. Findings x The study period (1945-1975) was an exciting and challenging era that determined much of the present physical form of Central Sydney and resulted in outstanding architectural and civic accomplishments. x There were an unprecedented number of development projects undertaken during the study period, which resulted in fundamental changes to the physical fabric and character of Central Sydney. x The buildings are an historical record of the changing role of Australia in an international context and Sydney’s new-found role as a major world financial centre. Surviving buildings provide crucial evidence of the economic and social circumstances of the study period. x Surviving buildings record the adaptation of the Modern Movement to local conditions, distinguishing them from Modern Movement buildings in other parts of the world. x The overwhelming preponderance of office buildings, which distinguishes Central Sydney from all other parts of NSW, is offset by the presence of other building typologies such as churches, community buildings and cultural institutions. These often demonstrate architectural accomplishment. x The triumph of humane and rational urban planning can be seen in the creation of pedestrian- friendly areas and civic spaces of great accomplishment such as Australia Square, Martin Place and Sydney Square.

With 8,621 responses nationally, it is not only the largest such study ever conducted in Australia but one of the largest samples ever collected across the globe in a national Jewish community study. Even before considering the findings, this highlights the success, nature and engagement of our dedicated community. A survey is only as good as the willingness of participants to complete it.
