<> Sertelsa, syna Isachara, jako przykład dwujęzycznego tekstu do nauki Tory

Author(s): Anna Jakimyszyn / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 33/2014

Moshe Sertels was a son of Issachar and Sarah. He was born circa mid-16th century in Prague. He was a teacher and worked as a translator and exegete. Sertels wrote several texts that attracted wide interest. One of them was a work titled Sefer Beer Moshe, a bilingual commentary on the Torah and five megillot. The construction of the text, its clarity and intelligibility, made it an excellent tool for teaching the Torah in cheders (e.g. such usage of this text was noted in the books of the Cracovian brotherhood Talmud Torah). The article presents the figure of the author and his literary oeuvre with particular focus on the Sefer Beer Moshe as a work that served generations of Ashkenazi Jews to enhance their knowledge of the Torah. The author discusses characteristics of the text and underlines several issues in regard to the Yiddish language in the form that was used in Prague at the turn of the 17th century.

1941 M. KOVO 19 D. LAF ATSIŠAUKIMAS: PROVOKACIJA, FALSIFIKATAS AR TIKRAS DOKUMENTAS?

Author(s): Stanislovas Stasiulis / Language(s): Lithuanian / Issue: 38/2016

This article concerns the leaflet of the Lithuanian Activist Front, dated 19 March 1941. The leaflet, titled Dear enslaved brothers! has two different versions. One version has a sentence which calls that “The traitor will be pardoned only provided he proves beyond doubt that he has killed one Jew at least”. Another version of this document does not have the same sentence, but holds a remark that it is a multiplied copy of the document. Archival resources show that the version of this leaflet with the already mentioned sentence was found in the house of anti-Soviet activist Osvaldas Žadvydas during rummaging. The interrogations of the paticipants of the anti-Soviet underground movement in Lithuania show that the leaflet came from Berlin to Lithuania on 23 March 1941. This leaflet was multiplied and circulated in various places of Lithuania. The interrogation of one of the major LAF signalmen Mykolas Naujokaitis underlines that all documentation and leaflets were sent from Berlin to Lithuania by an active Voldemarist and Head of the LAF Commission of Relations with Lithuania Stasys Puodžius. This article underlines that the authorship of the leaflet with the mentioned sentence belongs to the leadership of the LAF Berlin branch and the fraction of Voldemarists.

1952–1953 metų antisemitinė kampanija Sovietų Socialistinių Respublikų Sąjungoje

Author(s): Kastytis Antanaitis / Language(s): Lithuanian / Issue: 65/2016

The anti-Semitism of the Soviet leader Joseph Stalin became, at the beginning of the Cold War, an anti-Semitic paranoia and took on the most radical form during the campaign against Western influence on Soviet society. Soon after the destruction of the Jewish Antifascist Committee, the Doctors’ Plot campaign was launched at the end of 1952; it soon became a perfect basis for blaming all Jews as disloyal to the Soviet regime. In the republics of the USSR the local Communist leaders supported the anti-Semitic campaign in Moscow with allegations about Jewish medical crimes at the local level.Despite much circumstantial evidence and many testimonies there still is no strong basis for the conclusion that the anti-Semitic campaign of 1952-1953 would soon turn into a large-scale repression campaign or wholesale genocide of the Jewish population in the USSR, but the clear anti-Jewish policy and the Soviet practice of the mass repression of nations leaves little doubt that the Soviet society was mentally prepared for the deportation of Jews to Siberia. The Soviet regime practiced constant archive purge campaigns, and documents about politically sensitive issues or regime crime were destroyed on a regular basis. Despite all regime efforts, some traces of anti-Semitic campaign preparation, control, and coordination may be found not in the central state institutions of the USSR but in the Communist Party archives of the republics. At the republican level Communist party Central Committees some top secret documents of the anti-Semitic campaign of 1953 were preserved in specific archive units, the so-called Osobaja Papka.In the USSR the reports of local party leaders to Moscow always described never-existing enthusiastic popular support for Soviet policies; thus the true scale of anti-Semitism in society can’t be determined on the basis of such sources. But they demonstrate that local Soviet institutions supported the spread of anti-Semitism during the infamous Doctors’ Plot campaign of 1953. They also permit the conclusion that any anti-Semitic campaign would not be limited to negative propaganda and at least part of Soviet society was ready to accept some repression of Jews.Joseph Stalin’s death in 1953 put an early end to the anti-Semitic campaign. Soon Stalin’s political heirs quashed charges against the doctors and even punished a few distinguished instigators of the campaign, but there was no official and public condemnation of that anti-Semitic campaign. Thereupon anti-Semitism became less aggressive but still remained very strong in the USSR.

„Néha furcsa hangulatban / Az utcát járom egymagamban, / Nincsen semmihez se kedvem, / De érzem azt, hogy nincs ez rendben így” – énekel benne, már tôle függetlenedve a furcsa, szomorkás, de ugyanakkor vigasztalóan elringató dalocska, amit aznapi dúdolgatásra munkába indulás elôtt a rádióból csípett fel s a délelôtti tánczenei koktélban is megismételtek. Az Adócsôgyár mûszakirajz-szerkesztôirodájában többszöri tiltás, fômérnöki dörgedelmek, a tiszta, világos munkahelyrôl eltávolítás kilátásba helyezése ellenére is, lázadó makacssággal megszólal minden szerdán délelôtt tíz negyvenötkor Komjáthy György mûsora a bejárati ajtó szárnyai felett elhelyezett hangszóróból, amely a gyár összes dolgozóját érintô közleményeket teszi közhírré, vagy az olyan országos érdeklôdésre számot tartó eseményeket, mint a Szovjetunió Kommunista Pártja vagy a Magyar Szocialista Munkáspárt kongresszusainak záró nyilatkozatai, avagy, alig egy hónapja – nem minden meghökkentô hatás nélkül, hiszen olyan távol történt, s miért éppen ezt, hiszen annyi dúl belôle – a késôbb hatnaposnak nevezett háború elsô napjainak hadijelentéseit. A tizenöt rajzasztal jó részén fiatal, technikumból frissen kikerült szerkesztôk dolgoznak, többségükben fiúk, akik – mintegy az iskolai és a munkahelyi fegyelem közötti mezsgye lépésrôl lépésre történô kiszélesítéseként – óvatosan nyakba ereszkedô hajat s szintén lefelé merészkedô-szélesedô barkót viselnek, a mûsor szignáljának fölhangzásakor összeesküvô mosollyal a bajszuk alatt, szemükkel a hasonló korú lányokat keresve, a lemezlovas kötelezô szószát követô isteni muzsika ritmusait megelôlegezendô, kezdik jobbra-balra dobálni a fejüket.

67 A 90 Numaralı H. 1077 – 1080 (M. 1666 - 1670) Tarihli Kırım Kadıasker Defterine (Şer`iyye Siciline) Göre Yahudilerin Sosyo – Kültürel Hayatı

Author(s): Mehmet Caner Çavus / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 1/2019

The Kadıasker Notebooks, also known as Şer`iyye records, are one of the most important sources of history research. Between 1666 and 1670, we examined the Crimean kadiasker book with the number 67 A 90 and made evaluations about the cases by examining the cases of the Jews’s routine lives in the Crimean region. These cases led us to understand and evaluate the social structure of the Jewish community living in Crimea in social, economic, administrative and legal fields. We have reviewed all kinds of details, from the names of the places where the Jews live, from the professions they work to, from their own cases to the cases of Muslims. We tried to put all aspects of the relationship of the İslamic law with the Jews.

A BAR KOCHBA-FELKELÉS - A KUTATÁS FÉL-ÉVSZÁZADÁNAK EREDMÉNYEI ÉS KIHÍVÁSAI

Author(s): Tibor Grüll / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 1/2008

According to a commonplace in scholarly literature it is unachievable to write the history of the Bar Kochba revolt. This paper does not attempt the impossible, it merely attempts to take into account the way in which our evidences, that came to light in the last half-century, repaint the traditional picture of the insurrection. The first five chapters discuss the antecedents of the revolt, i.e., the short and long-term consequences of the churban; the uprising under Trajan (the so-called “war of Quietus”); the administrative, economic and military situation of Judaea from 70 to 132 C.E., mainly on the basis of the Babatha-archive. The immediate cause of the Bar Kochba revolt is still debated, as both the foundation of Colonia Aelia Capitolina (ch. 5), and the ban on circumcision, introduced by Hadrian’s legislation (ch. 6), can be taken into account. It is not clear, however, whether these oppressive measures were taken before or after 132; in other words, whether they were causes or consequences of the war. The following chapter is dedicated to Bar Kochba’s messianic pretensions, which, among other things, can be verified with the strong halachic orientation of the papyri produced by the administration of the revolt (ch. 8). Ch. 9 examines the character and magnitude of the Roman military participation in the Bar Kochba revolt, as these are illuminated by the extant epigraphic material. The last chapter deals with the Jewish guerilla tactics and bases: the rebels’ hiding complexes that from the 1990’s have been explored in the territory of Judaea.

A Border Biography: The Image of the Past in Eva Nahir Panić’s Memories as Presented in Dane Ilić’s Eva

Author(s): Katarzyna Taczynska / Language(s): English / Issue: 41/2018

The primary objective of this text is an analysis of Eva Nahir Panić’s biography (she lived from 1918 to 2015) titled Eva, written by Dane Ilić. The protagonist of this story is a Jewish woman born in Čakovec, who married a Serbian officer, survived the Holocaust, went through the camp for the Cominformists, and finally immigrated to Israel. An interpretative category that creates a framework for reading the text is the term “borderline,” which encompasses two meanings here. The first includes borderline situations (such as the Holocaust and the stay in the Sveti Grgur prison camp) which Nahir Panić had to face in her life and which left an indelible mark on her (the burden of her traumatic experience is passed on to the next generation, in Eva’s daughter, Tijana—signifying a postmemory issue). The second pertains to how she functioned in the borders between cultures which directly influenced her fate. With reference to Ewa Domańska’s concept of the rescue history project executed in Poland, I suggest that the life of Eva Nahir Panić, though undoubtedly filled with painful experiences, ought to be considered not in terms of victimization, but of rebirth and affirmation. Nahir Panić’s life story is a highly personalized narrative, which presents her own identity project, and through it the reader discovers the potential of the community. This may also provide a starting point for reflecting on the history of Yugoslavia.

A budapesti zsidó flâneur

Author(s): Mary Gluck / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 4/2012

Az 1890-es évekbôl származik Karl Luegernek, Bécs antiszemita polgármesterének Budapest túlnyomórészt zsidó jellegére célzó, hírhedt szófabrikációja, a „Judapest”. A díszítô jelzôt, amely arra utal, hogy a város fölött a zsidóság gyakorol jogosulatlan hatalmat, nyilvánvalóan inkább vitaindítónak szánta, mint ténymegállapításnak. A zsidóság 1900-ban nagyjából 23%-át tette ki Budapest összlakosságának, és jelentôs gazdasági és kulturális hatást gyakorolt a városra. De semmiképpen nem jelentett kihívást az uralkodó magyar elit társadalmi tekintélyére és politikai vezetô szerepére. A budapesti zsidóságot – társadalmi elitjének látványos sikere ellenére – fôként alsó-középosztálybeli bevándorló rétegek alkották, akiknek legfôbb célja az asszimiláció és a magyar kultúrához való alkalmazkodás volt.
