[ha-Safran]: Polish hagadot

2010-02-22 Thread scorrsin
Does anyone have information about Polish-language, or bilingual
Polish-Hebrew, hagaddot? (Maxwellski Dom, where are you when we need you?)

Any vintage would be of interest.

Thanks. (ps Personal not library request.)

[ha-Safran]: Call for papers

Global Antisemitism International Conference - CALL FOR PAPERS, 
please circulate

YIISA: The Yale Initiative for the Interdisciplinary Study of Antisemitism

and

The International Association for the Study of Antisemitism (IASA)

CALL FOR PAPERS
For The Upcoming Conference

Global Antisemitism:

A Crisis of Modernity

Monday, August 23rd – Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

Yale University, New Haven, CT

The International Association for the Study of Antisemitism (IASA) is 
a newly formed professional association, which aims to represent 
scholars and intellectuals engaged in the study of antisemitism 
across the globe regardless of school of thought, scientific 
approach, academic discipline or ideological view.  Created to 
advance knowledge pertaining to the origins and manifestations of 
antisemitism, IASA recognizes the aspirations of scholars in all disciplines.

Antisemitism is one of the most complex and, at times, perplexing 
forms of hatred.  It spans history, infecting different societies, 
religious and philosophical movements, and even civilizations.  In 
the aftermath of the Shoah, some contend that antisemitism 
illustrates the limitations of the Enlightenment and modernity 
itself.  In the contemporary context of globalized relations it 
appears that antisemitism has taken on new and changing forms that 
need to be decoded, mapped and critiqued.  In fact, given the rise of 
current genocidal antisemitic discourse as a social movement, and the 
limited response to it by the human rights community, this could 
point to a possible crisis of modernity.  This conference aims to 
explore this discursive phenomenon from an interdisciplinary approach.

IASA will host its inaugural international conference at Yale 
University, in conjunction with the Yale Initiative for the 
Interdisciplinary Study of Antisemitism (YIISA).  IASA is now 
accepting papers to be presented at this conference as well as 
proposals for panels.  Please send proposals toi...@iasa-anti.org by 
Monday, May 17, 2010.  For more information please email Ulrike 
Becker at ulrike.bec...@yale.edu or email / call Lauren Clark at 
203.432.5239, lauren.cl...@yale.edu.

Conference registration is now open.  Registration fees are $150; 
Senior Citizens - $100; Students - $75.  Under exceptional 
circumstances fees may be waived.  Checks may be made payable to the 
Yale Initiative for the Interdisciplinary Study of Antisemitism 
(YIISA) and mailed to YIISA/IASA Conference, 77 Prospect Street, P.O. 
Box 208209, New Haven, CT 06520.  For more information regarding 
registration please contact i...@iasa-anti.org or 203.432.5239.


This conference is being organized in conjunction with the Isaac and 
Jessie Kaplan Centre for Jewish Studies and Research, University of 
Cape Town, and The Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study 
of Antisemitism, Hebrew University, Jerusalem, as well as other institutions.

[ha-Safran]: Re: recommendations on DVD's for children

2010-02-22 Thread Andrea Rapp
I find it so hard to get decent dvd's for kids, ones that aren't an hour long.
Actually, that's a problem with adult documentaries, also; they are 
making them WAY TO LONG for a class or program followed by discussion.
   Anyway, the DVD of Patricia Polacco reading The Keeping Quilt is 
great because at the end, she shows you the real keeping quilt and 
you meet her now grown-up baby that was wrapped in it.
I assume you have Molly's Pilgrim, which is excellent, and so is 
the sequel, Make a Wish Molly.
   What is Judaism? (Schlessinger Media's Series: Understanding World 
Religions) is surprisingly good- for middle grades, 20 minutes. This 
series also has one called Understanding World Religions that could 
be useful: it shows that religions all share common elements, such as 
holy books, sacred places, special days.
   Some of the Israel Up Close (israelupclose.org) video segments are 
really good for middle grades.  Segments are only about 4 minutes, 
and there are 3 segments per DVD.   Some of my favorites are:
Training Guide Dogs for Hebrew Speakers (v. 15)
Arab and Jewish Israeli children learning karate together (Vol. 16)
   Israeli pediatric cardiologists treating children from all over 
the world (Vol. 18)
  American Football comes to Israel (Vol8)
  Israeli  Hi-Tech Summer Camp, Vol. 22
   Israeli teen invents way to drastically cut fuel consumption in 
cars (Vol 24)
  Learning Hebrew Digitally  (Vol. 21)

Please share other suggestions from the group.

   Israel Up Close Videos are only $2.50 apiece...

We will be happy if certain people will read the book or the 
interview, but these people will not read it because they do not read 
(anything).
