Eisenhower Parkway PO Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract Painted topographical views of cities and their environs appear throughout the mid-sixteenth-century fresco decorations of the Palazzo Vecchio. This project focuses primarily on the most extensive series, those in the Quartiere di Leone X. Giorgio Vasari and his assistant Giovanni Stradano painted the five rooms of this apartment between 1556 and 1561. The city views take one of three forms in each painting: as a setting for a historical scene, as the background of an allegory, or as the subject of the view itself.

    J. M. Dent and Sons (London: 1909- ) J. M. Dent and Company (London: 1888-1909) ~ J. M. Dent and Sons has published an impres­ sive list of books by contemporary authors, but it made its mark on publishing history with its inex­ pensive series of classic literature. Everyman's Li­ brary in particular stands as a monument to the firm. It was not the first attempt at a cheap uni­ form edition of the "great books," but no similar series except Penguin Books has ever exceeded it in scope, and none without exception has ever matched the high production standards of the early Everyman volumes. Joseph Malaby Dent, born on 30 August 1849, was one of a dozen children of a Darling­ ton housepainter. He acquired his love of litera­ ture from the autodidact culture that flourished among Victorian artisans and shopkeepers. Dent attended a "Mutual Improvement Society" at a local chapel, where he undertook to write a paper on Samuel Johnson. Reading James Boswell's biography of Johnson, he was aston­ ished that the great men of the period-such as Edmund Burke, Sir Joshua Reynolds, Oliver Goldsmith-"should bow down before this old Juggernaut and allow him to walk over them, in­ sult them, blaze out at them and treat them as if they were his inferiors . At last it dawned on me that it was not the ponderous, clumsy, dirty old man that they worshipped, but the scholar­ ship for which he stood." Boswell's The Life of Sam­ uel Johnson, LL.D. ( 1791) taught Dent that "there JosephMa/,alry Dent (photographlry Frederick H.

  • The Convent Children the Rescue of Jewish Children in Polish Convents
    The Convent Children The Rescue of Jewish Children in Polish Convents During the Holocaust1 Nahum Bogner The rescue of Jewish children in convents during the Holocaust is a subject that evokes intense emotions and sensitivities among both Jews and Christians, as it is intertwined with the controversial issue of the attitude of the Church toward the Jews at that time. The Jewish collective consciousness associates the affair with the conversion of many of these children to Christianity—as if their rescuers effected their deliverance in order to stalk innocent souls and exploit their existential distress for missionary motives. Christians, in contrast, consider the very hint of such a suspicion as an expression of ingratitude on the part of people who do not respect the death-defying devotion and Christian conscience of those priests and nuns who risked their lives in order to save Jews. It is a complex issue that penetrates to the depths of the soul. This article examines the case of the children who survived the Holocaust in the convents of Poland. Poland is, of course, one of the largest Catholic countries in Europe and one in which the Church had a special stature and exerted strong influence over its believers. 1 This article is part of a book in progress on the rescue of children with assumed identities in Poland. Convents in Occupied Poland Catholic Poland, flanked by the mostly Orthodox Russia to the east and predominantly Lutheran Germany to the west, was peppered until World War II with sundry types of convents and monasteries. These were mostly tenanted by women, and even the Church establishment was not always well acquainted with all of them.

The interwar period had been marked by an increase in po­ litical activity among Jews, resulting in a proliferation of par­ ties and movements, ranging from assimilationists to Zionists (of various kinds) to socialists (of various stripes) to the entire gamut of religious orthodoxy; and the capital with its large Jewish population naturally became the center for these groups.In addition, Warsaw spawned an active Jewish cultural life, comprising schools, theaters, journalism, and the arts.
