    Tikvah Talk Vol. 30 Iss. 11 Congregation B’nai Tikvah Walnut Creek, CA Summer 2011 From Where I Stand... By Rabbi Raphael Asher State of the Congregation In many ways it has been a difficult year within the congregation with some untimely deaths and health issues from “left field.” However, these challenges locally have fostered more compassion globally as we’ve been more sensi- tized to agonies in Japan, throughout the South, and to those still languishing in Haiti. Our Social Action Shabbat recently under Glenn Gould, welcomed long term member Haylene Sandler and her husband Pierre Anesoir who spoke about their medical and engineering energies in Haiti, and I hope there will be more opportunities next year to consider areas where our attention and resources can be helpful. The Jewish Year began with our local rabbis declaring this the “Year of Civil Discourse.” Noticing more vitriol and even violence within the Jewish community surrounding Israel, the economy, and local politics, we rabbis coordinated public statements about bet- ter dialogue and mutual respect. Last year’s Yontov sermons, if you recall, focused on Yiddish revival, and one of my points was that the Yiddish language was able to be both caustic, insightful, and disarming at the same time. Jewish discourse on the left, on the right, pro-Zionist, or anti-Zionist has lost a good deal of humor and insight and these need to be retrieved. With all the hopes and misgivings in the Jewish community about the “Arab Spring,’ B’nai Tikvah together with Beth Chaim, B’nai Shalom and Isaiah will be bringing a Jewish scholar on Islam and the Arab world to deliver a series of lectures at all 4 synagogues on “Understanding the Muslim Faith and Community.” When anxieties and change polarize Jewish opinion, it will be good to temper our emotions with real knowledge.

  • Judaica Americana
    Judaica Americana JONATHAN D. SARNA A bibliography of monographic and periodical literature published since I975 and received in the Library of the American Jewish Histor­ ical Society. Categories: Bibliography, Biography & Autobiography, Cultural Life, Economic Life, Education, Genealogy & Family History, History, Holo­ caust, Legal & Political Life, Literature, Performing & Visual Arts, Phi­ losophy & Thought, Regional & Local History, Relations with Non­ Jews, Religion, Social Sciences, Special Studies, Women, Zionism & State of IsraeL Note to Readers: The '7udaica Americana" section of this journal first appeared in vol. 52:I (September 196z) under the editorship of Dr. Nathan M. Kaganoft who had then just been appointed as librarian of the American Jewish Historical Society. From that time onward, un­ til his death on February 4, I99Z, Dr. Kaganoff painstakingly compiled, annotated, and edited this section, which appeared regularly twice a year. All told, Dr. Kaganoff listed about ten thousand individual items dealing with American Jewish history and life during the three decades in which he produced "Judaica Americana"-many of which but for him might easily have been lost and left unrecorded. The burgeoning growth of American Jewish historical scholarship during the past two decades has made the task of maintaining biblio­ graphical control over the field ever more difficult. To identify, acquire, and list all of the many hundreds of books, periodicals, pamphlets, and articles published in the field every year has become an increasingly ex­ pensive and time-consuming task, one beyond the current resources of the American Jewish Historical Society. As a result, changes in the na­ ture and format of this bibliography have become necessary.
