  • 3. Allen, Holy Ground
    Woody Guthrie Annual, 1 (2015): Allen, “Holy Ground” Holy Ground: The Klezmatics Channel Woody Guthrie1 ! !Ray Allen ! When Lorin Sklamberg sang “Come When I Call You” at the Brooklyn College Guthrie Centennial Conference the audience sat spellbound. The lyrics, Woody Guthrie’s 1949 reflections on the ravages of war, were set to a haunting modal melody composed by Skalmberg. As the song ended and the audience erupted in applause, I experienced one of those miraculous musical moments when the dots connected. Here was one of New York’s foremost interpreters of Jewish/Yiddish music, singing a contemporary song with sixty-year-old lyrics written by America’s iconic Okie troubadour, who in turn had structured the piece after an African American spiritual (“Children Go Where I Send Thee”). Sklamberg, along with his band mates, the Klezmatics, had added a fresh twist to the age-old folk process of forging new sounds from old traditions — in this case the seemingly unlikely merger of Eastern European Jewish music with an Anglo-prairie folk song via a nineteenth century black spiritual. So how did a nice Jewish band from New York City get caught up in Goyim folk music? The story began in 1997 at a Tanglewood concert that featured the renowned classical violinist Itzhak Perlman performing with the Klezmatics and three other klezmer bands.2 Woody Guthrie’s daughter, Nora, made her way backstage after the show and was surprised to learn that the lyrics to one of the Klezmatics’ songs, “Fisherlid” (“Fisherman’s Song”), had been written by her grandmother, the Yiddish poet Aliza Greenblatt.3 “I almost fell through the floor,” she recalled.

  • A.K. Chesterton and the Problem of British Fascism, 1915-1973
    A.K. CHESTERTON AND THE PROBLEM OF BRITISH FASCISM, 1915-1973. Luke LeCras Bachelor of Arts in History with Honours. THESIS PRESENTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN HISTORY MURDOCH UNIVERSITY, AUGUST 2017 THESIS DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. .................................... Luke LeCras i ABSTRACT Fascist and extreme right-wing political movements in Britain have been the subject of enduring interest to historians since 1945, with the majority of works centring on the British Union of Fascists (BUF), a political party founded and led by Sir Oswald Mosley between 1932 and 1940. Despite the BUF’s failure to achieve levels of support on par with many fascist movements in continental Europe, there is now a sizeable body of historiography dealing with the party as a minor case within the study of European fascism and as a unique phenomenon of radical politics in interwar Britain. By comparison, little interest has been devoted to aspects of British fascism not connected to Mosley or the BUF. Moreover, extreme right movements operating in Britain since 1945 have largely been characterized as either a direct legacy of the interwar movement or an attempt to reform British fascism under a different guise. This thesis re-examines the continuity between the interwar and the post-war iterations of the extreme right in Britain by focusing on the ideas and activism of Arthur Kenneth (A.K) Chesterton. A high-ranking member of the BUF who made substantial contributions to the party’s propaganda, Chesterton split with Mosley in 1938 to pursue an independent career in extreme right-wing politics that persisted until his death in 1973.

  • Memory and War Doi:10.1017/S181638311900047X
    International Review of the Red Cross (2019), 101 (1), 1–9. Memory and war doi:10.1017/S181638311900047X EDITORIAL MEMORY: A NEW HUMANITARIAN FRONTIER Vincent Bernard, Editor-in-Chief At a time when the humanitarian debate seems firmly focused on the future – digital transformation, autonomous weapons, climate change, the race to innovate, and so on – devoting an entire issue of the Review to the concept of memory may seem out of place. But memory is an essential part of this debate for more than one reason. First, if conflict victims are to gain any relief from their trauma, the psychological impact of their experience can no longer be overlooked. Traumatic memories cause severe suffering among survivors of violence, those who have been uprooted, and the families of people who remain missing long after a conflict has ended. Humanitarian organizations are increasingly aware that they have an obligation – if not necessarily the means – to treat a form of suffering that has remained invisible or beyond their normal scope of work for far too long. Understanding memory, not only individual memory but also collective memory, may be key to preventing future cycles of violence. Historical humiliations and representations of the past give rise to murderous identities, feed most conflicts and lay the groundwork for incompatible visions of the future. The collective memory of societies is stored in their cultures and can be embodied in their landmarks and monuments. The emotion felt around the world in reaction to the accidental fire that engulfed Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris demonstrates that memory – whether tangible or not – is worth safeguarding.
