    WESTERN WALL ַה ּכֹו ֶתל ַה ַּמ ַעָר ִבי The Western Wall, known as the Kotel, is revered as the holiest site for the Jewish people. A part of the outer retaining wall of the Second Temple that was destroyed by the Romans in 70 CE, it is the place closest to the ancient Holy of Holies, where only the Kohanim— —Jewish priests were allowed access. When Israel gained independence in 1948, Jordan controlled the Western Wall and all of the Old City of Jerusalem; the city was reunified in the 1967 Six-Day War. The Western Wall is considered an Orthodox synagogue by Israeli authorities, with separate prayer spaces for men and women. A mixed egalitarian prayer area operates along a nearby section of the Temple’s retaining wall, raising to the forefront contemporary ideas of religious expression—a prime example of how Israel navigates between past and present. SITES AND INSIGHTS theicenter.org SHUK ׁשוּק Every Israeli city has an open-air market, or shuk, where vendors sell everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to clothing, appliances, and souvenirs. There’s no other place that feels more authentically Israeli than a shuk on Friday afternoon, as seemingly everyone shops for Shabbat. Drawn by the freshness and variety of produce, Israelis and tourists alike flock to the shuk, turning it into a microcosm of the country. Shuks in smaller cities and towns operate just one day per week, while larger markets often play a key role in the city’s cultural life. At night, after the vendors go home, Machaneh Yehuda— —Jerusalem’s shuk, turns into the city’s nightlife hub.

  • L'italia E L'eurovision Song Contest Un Rinnovato
    La musica unisce l'Europa… e non solo C'è chi la definisce "La Champions League" della musica e in fondo non sbaglia. L'Eurovision è una grande festa, ma soprattutto è un concorso in cui i Paesi d'Europa si sfidano a colpi di note. Tecnicamente, è un concorso fra televisioni, visto che ad organizzarlo è l'EBU (European Broadcasting Union), l'ente che riunisce le tv pubbliche d'Europa e del bacino del Mediterraneo. Noi italiani l'abbiamo a lungo chiamato Eurofestival, i francesi sciovinisti lo chiamano Concours Eurovision de la Chanson, l'abbreviazione per tutti è Eurovision. Oggi più che mai una rassegna globale, che vede protagonisti nel 2016 43 paesi: 42 aderenti all'ente organizzatore più l'Australia, che dell'EBU è solo membro associato, essendo fuori dall'area (l’anno scorso fu invitata dall’EBU per festeggiare i 60 anni del concorso per via dei grandi ascolti che la rassegna fa in quel paese e che quest’anno è stata nuovamente invitata dall’organizzazione). L'ideatore della rassegna fu un italiano: Sergio Pugliese, nel 1956 direttore della RAI, che ispirandosi a Sanremo volle creare una rassegna musicale europea. La propose a Marcel Bezençon, il franco-svizzero allora direttore generale del neonato consorzio eurovisione, che mise il sigillo sull'idea: ecco così nascere un concorso di musica con lo scopo nobile di promuovere la collaborazione e l'amicizia tra i popoli europei, la ricostituzione di un continente dilaniato dalla guerra attraverso lo spettacolo e la tv. E oltre a questo, molto più prosaicamente, anche sperimentare una diretta in simultanea in più Paesi e promuovere il mezzo televisivo nel vecchio continente.

POWER OF MUSIC V The past month in Jewish history and in our calendar has been momentous. We experienced Israel’s 70th anniversary, celebrated in several excellent events in our community, the 51st anniversary of the reunification of Jerusalem, and the relocation of the US Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. In the midst of all this euphoria, what might have escaped your attention is Israel’s winning the prestigious Eurovision song contest on May 12th 2018 in Lisbon, Portugal. That night in our Jewish calendar - the 28th of Iyar, commemorates the reunification of Jerusalem during the Six Day War of 1967. This is the fourth time Israel has won Eurovision, one of the world’s most famous international song contests. The winning song “Toy”, a pop anthem about female independence, was performed by 25 year old Netta Barzilai, accompanied by her signature “chicken dance.” Netta had placed third by the official judges, but won thanks to tele-voters from around the world catapulting her to victory. Hours before the victory, Israeli superstar film actress Gal Gadot had urged her twenty million Instagram followers to vote for Israel’s entry. Including words like “I’m not your toy you stupid boy...,” it was influenced by the #MeToo movement. The Eurovision contest has often been embroiled in political and religious controversies, although politically tinged songs are unofficially disallowed.

    >> Welcome to the podcast series of Raising the Bar Sydney. Raising the Bar in 2019 saw 21 University of Sydney academics take their research out of the lecture theatre and into bars across Sydney all on one night. In this podcast, you hear Anika Gouja’s talk The Politics of Eurovision. Enjoy the talk. [ Applause ] >> Good evening, Sorry Hill’s. [ Applause ] I’m just taking a very quick look at who’s in the audience so I can work out what I can and can’t say tonight. The results of the latest Eurovision fan survey were released today. Did anyone see those on social media? Okay. It’s a survey of Eurovision fans in Australia and overseas. And the Australian results showed that the typical Eurovision fan is aged 18-24, male. [ Laughter ] Part of the LGTBQI community, and is single. So if you’re not interested in politics, I don’t know why you’re here. [ Laughter ] I’ll wait for it. So I’m going to take you back to May 13, 2018. It’s 8:30 AM and I’ve been awake for more than 24 hours. I watched the delayed broadcast of the Eurovision first semifinal, the delayed broadcast of the Eurovision second semifinal. I watched the, you know, 50 Years of Eurovision documentary special. And I watched whatever ABBA retrospective was available. And that took me up to the grand final, 5:00 AM. I was at a Eurovision party with a group of friends like I am every single year. And the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest, Netta Barzilai with her song Toy was announced.

Ever since I was a little boy I have been a fan, and some might even say that I became somewhat obsessed, for which I cannot really blame them. Moreover, I have always had a special interest in mixed language songs, so linking the two subjects seemed only natural. Thanks to a rather unfortunate turn of events, this thesis took a lot longer to write than was initially planned, but nevertheless, here it is. Special thanks are in order for my supervisor, Tony Foster, who has helped me in many ways during this time. I would also like to thank a number of other people for various reasons.

  • Guida Junior Eurovision 2016
    JUNIOR EUROVISION SONG CONTEST: LA FESTA EUROPEA DELLA MUSICA, A MISURA DI BAMBINO Cos’è lo Junior Eurovision Song Contest? E’ la versione “junior” dell’Eurovision Song Contest, ovvero il più grande concorso musicale d’Europa ed è organizzato, come il festival degli adulti dalla EBU, European Broadcasting Union, l’ente che riunisce le tv e radio pubbliche d’Europa e del bacino del Mediterraneo. Lo Junior Eurovision si rivolge ai bambini e ragazzi dai 9 ai 14 anni (età abbassata da questa edizione, fino al 2015 era 10-16), che abbiano avuto o meno esperienze canore precedenti (regola introdotta nel 2008: prima dovevano essere esordienti assoluti) L’idea è nata nel 2003 prendendo spunto da concorsi per bambini organizzati nei paesi Scandinavi, dove l’Eurovision Song Contest (quello dei grandi) è seguito quasi come una religione. Le prime due edizioni furono infatti ospitate proprio da Danimarca e Norvegia. Curiosamente però, dopo le prime edizioni, i paesi Scandinavi si sono fatti da parte, eccezion fatta per la Svezia. Come funziona lo Junior Eurovision Song Contest? Esattamente come allo Eurovision dei grandi, possiamo dunque dire che sono “le televisioni” a concorrere, ciascuna con un proprio rappresentante. Rispetto alla rassegna degli adulti, ci sono alcune sostanziali differenze: Il cantante che viene selezionato (o il gruppo) deve essere rigorosamente della nazionalità del paese che rappresenta. L’unica eccezione è stata consentita per la Repubblica di San Marino (quest’anno assente). Nella rassegna dei “grandi” non ci sono invece paletti in tal senso ma piena libertà. Le canzoni devono essere eseguite obbligatoriamente in una delle lingue nazionali almeno per il 70% della propria durata, che deve essere compresa fra 2’45” e 3’ e completamente inedite al momento della presentazione ufficiale sul sito della rassegna o della partecipazione al concorso di selezione.
