No part of this book may be reproduced in any form without written permission from the publisher, except for brief passages included in a review appearing in a newspaper or magazine. Manufactured in the United States of America. Design and Typography by Jos. Trautwein. TO ALBENA my wife, who had no small part in the making of this book be'a-havah rabbah FOREWORD MODERN or political Zionism began in 1897 when Theodor Herzl con- vened the First Zionist Congress and reached its culmination in 1948 when the State of Israel was born. In the half century of its career it rose from a parochial enterprise to a conspicuous place on the inter- national arena. History will be explored in vain for a national effort with roots imbedded in a remoter past or charged with more drama and world significance. Something of its uniqueness and grandeur will, the author hopes, flow out to the reader from the pages of this narrative. As a repository of events this book is not as inclusive as the author would have wished, nor does it make mention of all those who labored gallantly for the Zionist cause across the world and in Pal- estine. Within the compass allotted for this work, only the more significant events could be included, and the author can only crave forgiveness from the actors living and dead whose names have been omitted or whose roles have perhaps been understated.

  • Notes and References
    Notes and References THE EMERGENCE OF JEWISH LIBERALS IN RUSSIA: FROM ACCULTURATION TO REVOLUTION 1. Inge Blank has shown the extent to which Jewish society was changing in terms of, for instance, an increasing number of Jewish university students. For more detail see Inge Blank, 'Haskalah und Emanzipation. Die russisch­ jUdische Intelligenz und die "jUdische Frage" am Vorabend der Epoche der "GraBen Reformen"', in Gotthold Rhode (ed.), Juden in Ostmitteleuropa. Von der Emantipatton bis zum Ersten Weltkrieg (Marburg/Lahn, 1989) pp. 197-231; for a brief summary of the governmental policy towards Russian Jews until 1881, see Hans Rogger, 'The Question of Jewish Emancipation', in Hans Rogger, Jewish Policies and Right-Wing Politics in Imperial Russia (Oxford, 1986) pp. 1-24. 2. While in 1835 eleven Jewish students were matriculated at Russian Univer­ sities, the number increased to 129 in 1863. See Blank, op. cit., pp. 211-12; in 1894, the Jewish student body had reached the number of 1,853 students (13.3 per cent of all Russian students). However, due to the introduction of the Numerus Clausus, this high percentage of Jewish students was to drop to 7 per cent in 1902. See Zvi Halevy, Jewish University Students and Professionals in Tsarist and Soviet Russia (Tel Aviv, 1976) pp. 43f. 3.

  • The Legacy of Jewish-Russian Literature
    General Introduction: The Legacy of Jewish-Russian Literature By Maxim D. Shrayer DUAL LITERARY IDENTITIES What are cultures measured by? Cultural contributions are difficult to quantify and even harder to qualify without a critical judgment in hand. In the case of verbal arts, and of literature specifically, various criteria of formal perfection and originality, significance in literary history, and aspects of time, place, and milieu all contribute to the ways in which one regards a writer’s contribution. In the case of Jewish culture in Diaspora, and specifically of Jewish writing created in non-Jewish languages adopted by Jews, the reckoning of a writer’s status is riddled with a set of powerful contrapositions. Above all else, there is the duality, or multiplicity, of a writer’s own iden- tity—both Jewish and German (Heinrich Heine) or French (Marcel Proust) or Russian (Isaac Babel) or Polish (Julian Tuwim) or Hungarian (Imre Kertész) or Brazilian (Clarice Lispector) or Canadian (Mordechai Richler) or American (Bernard Malamud). Then there is the dividedly redoubled perspec- tive of a Diasporic Jew: both an in-looking outsider and an out-looking insider. And there is the language of writing itself, not always one of the writer’s native setting, not necessarily one in which a writer spoke to his or her own parents or non-Jewish childhood friends, but in some cases a second or third or forth language—acquired, mastered, and made one’s own in a flight from home.1 Evgeny Shklyar (1894–1942), a Jewish-Russian poet and a Lithuanian patriot who translated into Russian the text of the Lithuanian national anthem 1 In the context of Jewish-Russian history and culture, the juxtaposition between a “divided” and a “redoubled” identity goes back to the writings of the critic and polemicist Iosif Bikerman (1867–1941? 1942?), who stated in 1910, on the pages of the St.

I was also amazed at Berlin which is certainly one of the most exciting cities in Europe today. The blending of the old and new as well as the great Museums and Galleries really put Berlin on par with Paris, London, Rome and Prague. Carol and I decided to go back to South Africa for a eight-day vacation and chose to concentrate only on the Cape and Garden Route. Our plan was to spend two days in Knysna, 2 in Piettenberg and the rest in Stellenbosch and Cape Town. After an excellent SAA flight, we carried on directly to George and drove to our small (8-room) bed and breakfast lodge on Leisure Island overlooking the Heads and Featherbed Nature Reserve in Knysna. We were captivated and decided to cancel the last three days and to stay on in the Garden Route.

    Haim Nahman Bialik's "In the City of Slaughter" A GREAT JEWISH BOOKS TEACHER WORKSHOP RESOURCE KIT Teachers’ Guide This guide accompanies resources that can be found at: http://www.teachgreatjewishbooks.org/resource-kits/haim-nahman- bialiks-city-slaughter. Introduction “In the City of Slaughter,” written in 1903 in what was then the Russian Empire, is the single most influential Hebrew poem— perhaps the single most influential Jewish literary text—of the twentieth century. It is commonly understood to have had an outsized and lasting effect on how people in the once vast communities of East European Jewry, and later in the new Jewish community of Palestine and the State of Israel, understood their collective political situation and what they ought to do about it, the nature of Diaspora and the claims of Zionism, and the political and moral wages of powerlessness. American readers might compare “In the City of Slaughter” to Mark Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn or indeed Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin in the sense that their searing moral and political claims about burning political problems had an immediate and lasting impact. “In the City of Slaughter” is Haim Nahman Bialik’s poem about the 1903 Kishinev pogrom, a terrible ethnic riot during which the large Jewish community of this small city in the Russian Empire was attacked over the course of three days by crowds of their Gentile neighbors. Although popular images of the life of Russia’s Jews, who numbered nearly six million at the turn of the twentieth century, sometimes treat such anti-Jewish violence as routine, in fact there had been nothing like the Kishinev pogrom before it happened.
