MENDELE Yiddish Language and Literature Personal Notices and Announcements
March 30, 2009 To minimize wear and tear on the untershames, three requests: 1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance. 2. Send material as plain text: no HTML, other coding, or attachments. 3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2009 22:17:44 -0500 From: Seth Wolitz <[email protected]> Subject: Death of Dr. Joseph Sherman I received the notice of the passing of Dr. Joseph Sherman of Oxford University Judaic Centre and I wish to share this with our colleagues in Jewish Studies. This distinguished scholar originally from Johannesburg, South Africa passed away in Oxford after suffering a long painful illness. The funeral is supposed to take place in Oxford this Wednesday.
