Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Secular and Religious Works of Penina Moise: With Brief Sketch of Her Life This little volume is compiled by the undersigned members of the Charleston Section, of the Council of Jewish Women, who were personally acquainted with the beloved and revered authoress, either as relatives, pupils, or children of dear friends. It has been a work of love, and though containing but few of her prose writings, and not all of her poems, it is as complete as was possible, considering lapse of time, condition of manuscripts, and the difficulty of thorough research. They were composed between 1820 and 1880 and are published in the order in which they were written, or as nearly so as can be determined. Much assistance has been found through the old files of The Charleston Courier. The publication has been a voluntary tribute from the Section to one of the three Jewish women whose lives and works fitted them for positions of distinction in the world. Rebecca Gratz, Emma Lazarus and Penina Moise represent much in Jewish womanhood. The two first had beauty, wealth and social prestige; the last had the social position by birth but owing to poverty from childhood, and ill health, followed by years of blindness, she lived the life of a martyr. Not withstanding this, she became through her character and mind, the nucleus of a coterie of refined and cultivated people scarcely credible under the circumstances. She was a poetess of the heart and soul. No claim is laid that the literature of the world will be augmented by this little book. Somewhere among her poems, will be found something to fit almost any human emotion. Nowhere will be found anything but Faith, Submission, Affection, Cheerfulness and a passionate love for nature and her works. Can any more be asked? Penina Moise left behind her, the incense of a purely religious life. This volume is a tribute to her memory.

Book Synopsis America's Jewish Women: A History from Colonial Times to Today by : Pamela Nadell

This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking history of how Jewish women maintained their identity and influenced social activism as they wrote themselves into American history. What does it mean to be a Jewish woman in America? In a gripping historical narrative, Pamela S. Nadell weaves together the stories of a diverse group of extraordinary people—from the colonial-era matriarch Grace Nathan and her great-granddaughter, poet Emma Lazarus, to labor organizer Bessie Hillman and the great justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, to scores of other activists, workers, wives, and mothers who helped carve out a Jewish American identity. The twin threads binding these women together, she argues, are a strong sense of self and a resolute commitment to making the world a better place. Nadell recounts how Jewish women have been at the forefront of causes for centuries, fighting for suffrage, trade unions, civil rights, and feminism, and hoisting banners for Jewish rights around the world. Informed by shared values of America’s founding and Jewish identity, these women’s lives have left deep footprints in the history of the nation they call home.

Book Synopsis American Jewish History by : Gary Phillip Zola
Download or read book American Jewish History written by Gary Phillip Zola and published by Brandeis University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting the American Jewish historical experience from its communal beginnings to the present through documents, photographs, and other illustrations, many of which have never before been published, this entirely new collection of source materials complements existing textbooks on American Jewish history with an organization and pedagogy that reflect the latest historiographical trends and the most creative teaching approaches. Ten chapters, organized chronologically, include source materials that highlight the major thematic questions of each era and tell many stories about what it was like to immigrate and acculturate to American life, practice different forms of Judaism, engage with the larger political, economic, and social cultures that surrounded American Jews, and offer assistance to Jews in need around the world. At the beginning of each chapter, the editors provide a brief historical overview highlighting some of the most important developments in both American and American Jewish history during that particular era. Source materials in the collection are preceded by short headnotes that orient readers to the documentsÕ historical context and significance.
Book Synopsis Shield of David by : Chaim M. Rosenberg
Download or read book Shield of David written by Chaim M. Rosenberg and published by Wicked Son. This book was released on 2022-11-29 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jews first arrived in the New World in 1654, seeking religious freedom. Since the beginning of American nationhood, Jewish volunteers and conscripts fought in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, on both sides of the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, in both World Wars, and in the Korean, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Over the years, the American military learned to integrate its Jewish servicemen and women by providing Jewish military chaplains, kosher food, religious services, and placing the Star of David on the graves of fallen Jewish soldiers. The end of conscription and the establishment of the All-Volunteer Force in 1973 offered other paths to serve our country. American Jews have contributed with distinction in the arts and sciences, academia, entertainment, government, and in building the economy. For Jews, America is the Goldene Medina—the Golden Country.

Download or read book Voices of the Marketplace written by Anne C. Rose and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2004 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this comprehensive and insightful reinterpretation of antebellum culture, Anne C. Rose analyzes the major shifts in intellectual life that occurred between 1830 and 1860 while exploring three sets of concepts that provided common languages-Christianity, democracy, capitalism. Whereas many interpretations of American culture in this period have emphasized a single theme or have been preoccupied with the ensuing Civil War, Rose considers sharply divergent tendencies in religion and politics and a wide range of reformers, authors, and other public figures.

Book Synopsis A Portion of the People by : McKissick Museum
Download or read book A Portion of the People written by McKissick Museum and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the year 1800, South Carolina was home to more Jews than any other place in North America. As old as the province of Carolina itself, the Jewish presence has been a vital but little-examined element in the growth of cities and towns, in the economy of slavery and post-slavery society, and in the creation of American Jewish religious identity. The record of a landmark exhibition that will change the way people think about Jewish history and American history, A Portion of the People: Three Hundred Years of Southern Jewish Life presents a remarkable group of art and cultural objects and a provocative investigation of the characters and circumstances that produced them. The book and exhibition are the products of a seven-year collaboration by the Jewish Historical Society of South Carolina, the McKissick Museum of the University of South Carolina, and the College of Charleston. Edited and introduced by Theodore Rosengarten, with original essays by Deborah Dash Moore, Jenna Weissman Joselit, Jack Bass, curator Dale Rosengarten, and Eli N. Evans, A Portion of the People is an important addition to southern arts and letters. A photographic essay by Bill Aron, who has documented Jewish

Book Synopsis Encyclopedia of American Jewish History [2 volumes] by : Stephen H. Norwood
Download or read book Encyclopedia of American Jewish History [2 volumes] written by Stephen H. Norwood and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-08-28 with total page 881 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by the most prominent scholars in American Jewish history, this encyclopedia illuminates the varied experiences of America's Jews and their impact on American society and culture over three and a half centuries. American Jews have profoundly shaped, and been shaped by, American culture. Yet American history texts have largely ignored the Jewish experience. The Encyclopedia of American Jewish History corrects that omission. In essays and short entries written by 125 of the world's leading scholars of American Jewish history and culture, this encyclopedia explores both religious and secular aspects of American Jewish life. It examines the European background and immigration of American Jews and their impact on the professions and academic disciplines, mass culture and the arts, literature and theater, and labor and radical movements. It explores Zionism, antisemitism, responses to the Holocaust, the branches of Judaism, and Jews' relations with other groups, including Christians, Muslims, and African Americans. The encyclopedia covers the Jewish press and education, Jewish organizations, and Jews' participation in America's wars. In two comprehensive volumes, Encyclopedia of American Jewish History makes 350 years of American Jewish experience accessible to scholars, all levels of students, and the reading public.
