Re: [ha-Safran] Request for suggestion of novel about Fascism's rise

[Shmuel Ben-Gad via Hasafran]

This is probably not the sort of book the patron has in mind, but The Code
of the Woosters by P.G. Wodehouse has a character, Roderick Spode, who is a
spoof of Oswald Moseley, leader of the British Union of Fascists.Spode's
fascist group is called the Black Shorts.

[ha-Safran] Further information on conferences in the UAE and Israel from my colleague.

[Shmuel Ben-Gad via Hasafran]

"You may want to update the Hasafran mailing list that the IATUL conference
organizers corrected the omission in response to my inquiry; Israel is now
a choice on the registration form.  They should be commended for
responding, in contrast to the ETD conference last year (also in the UAE)
which never responded to my inquiry."

[ha-Safran] Fwd: "Let the World Read and Know": The Warsaw Ghetto's Oneg Shabbat Archives at Warsaw's Jewish Historical Institute, 11/6/22

Subject: "Let the World Read and Know": The Warsaw Ghetto's Oneg Shabbat
Archives at Warsaw's Jewish Historical Institute, 11/6/22
To:



*"Let the World Read and Know": The Oneg Shabbat Archives*



Sunday, November 6, 2022
2 PM EST | 8 PM CET | 9 PM SAST | 9 PM Israel

This program is hosted by the Ghetto Fighters' House in partnership with
the Jewish Historical Institute in Warsaw, the Polish Institute in
Tel-Aviv, the Grodzka Gate – NN Theatre in Lublin, the Johannesburg
Holocaust & Genocide Center, Liberation 75, Classrooms without Borders, and
the Rabin Chair Forum at George Washington University.

*Opening Remarks:*
Monika Krawczyk, Director of the Jewish Historical Institute (JHI)

*Guest Speakers:*
Dr. Natalia Aleksiun

*Who were they?Emanuel Ringelblum and the Oneg Shabbat Writers*

Dr. Katarzyna Person
*The Ringelblum Archive and the Jewish Historical Institute*


>From the moment that its existence became widely known, the Ringelblum
Archive (also known as the Underground Archive of the Warsaw Ghetto) was
widely regarded as a collection of unusual significance. Under the
initiative of historian Emanual Ringelblum, a group of social activists
incarcerated in the Warsaw Ghetto created the archive between 1940 and 1943
with the aim to document the persecution of Jews in occupied Poland.
Emulating the working principles of YIVO (Yidisher Visnshaftlekher
Institut, Yiddish Scientific Institute), the Warsaw group gathered and
produced a total of 35,000 pages of documents, in Polish, Yiddish, Hebrew,
and German and stowed them away secretly within the Ghetto. Among the
documents were diaries, accounts from approximately 300 Jewish communities
from the whole territory of occupied Poland, school essays, research works,
and official German documents: like posters, identification cards, and food
ration cards. There were also some 70 photographs and over 300 drawings and
paintings.

The Archive was retrieved in parts from the ruins of the Warsaw Ghetto:
Part I (concealed on August 3, 1942) was found on September 18, 1946, and
Part II (concealed in early February 1943) was found on December 1, 1950.

Who were the people who created this archive?  Dr. Natalia Aleksiun will
share with us her research on the main contributors to one of the most
important archives that was written as the events were happening.

In her presentation, Dr. Katarzyna Person will discuss the academic
significance of the archive and the methods used to bring this
extraordinary collection to the wider public.

Re: [ha-Safran] - ISO: "must have" list for yeshiva library

[Shmuel Ben-Gad via Hasafran]

I would respectfully suggest that Sefer ha-emunot v'ha-dayot (The Book of
Beliefs and Opinions") by Saadia  Gaon be added  to this list.  It is one
of the most important books of Jewish philosophy and has been translated
from Arabic into Hebrew and English.

[ha-Safran] Digitized journal The Reconstructionist

[Shmuel Ben-Gad via Hasafran]

Shalom safranim!

One of our professors has been using an electronic  database of all issues
of The Reconstructionist back to 1937.  (It began in 1935.)  Now tithas
dIsappeared.  It is important for her current research and we are trying to
find out who produced it and if it is possible to have  it resurrected.
The Reconstructionist Rabbinical College has digitized issues on their
website only back to 1986. If any of you can assist us in this please do
so.  We and the professor would be most  grateful.

B'cavod rav.
