Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jews form only a tiny proportion of the Australian population, yet they have made outstanding contributions and have influenced Australian society immeasurably. Stories such as that of Sir John Monash, Australian commander-in-chief during World War I, whose legacy continues through Monash University, show how Jews have reached the highest echelons of Australian society.

As well as looking at the emergence of a specific faith tradition in Australia, the book also explores how Jews, as Australia's first ethnic group, have integrated into multicultural Australia.

Book Synopsis New Under the Sun by : Melanie Landau
Download or read book New Under the Sun written by Melanie Landau and published by Black Inc.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Under the Sunshines a critical light on Australia's Jewish community. In a range of essays from contributors such as Robert Manne, Ruth Ostrow, Arnold Zable, Andrea Goldsmith, Dorothy Porter, John Safran, Marcus Einfeld and Julie Szego, the anthology takes a snapshot of Australia's Jewish community and analyses the issues the community faces as it moves into the twenty-first century. For many years Australia's Jewish community was defined by its post Second World War migrants. These newcomers to Australia - many of whom were Holocaust survivors - set the parameters for how the community would respond to the challenges of migration, assimilation, Zionism and antisemitism. As we enter the new century, this generation is making way for a younger group of leaders. In scholarship, religious practice, attitudes to Israel and relationships to the broader community, this new generation of Jews is finding its own way, and redefining the hallmarks of Jewish identity and experience. New Under the Sunis a provocative, challenging and important collection.

Download or read book Let My People Go written by Sam Lipski and published by Hybrid Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 50 years, until the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, the Soviet Union ran a campaign of repression, imprisonment, political trials and terror against its 3 million Jews. In Australia, political leaders and the Jewish community contributed significantly to the international protest movement which eventually triumphed over Moscow's tyranny and led to the modern Exodus of Soviet Jews to Israel and other countries. Lipski and Rutland make this largely unknown Australian story come alive with a combination of passion, personal experience and ground-breaking research. "The struggle for the freedom of Soviet Jewry was one of the most powerful displays of strength and solidarity by the world Jewish community... even those intimately familiar with the struggle will be surprised to discover in Let My People Go how the Australian Jewish community and its leaders were among the campaign's initiators, and how they saw it through to its successful conclusion. This is a unique testament to how a small group can play a big role in history." - Natan Sharansky, Chairman Jewish Agency for Israel, Prisoner of Zion (1977-86)
