[ha-Safran]: Article

[Chaya Wiesman]

Dear Safranim,



One of my students is looking for a SCHOLARLY article about the 
causes of the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492.  I was able 
to find one article about this topic but have not been able to find 
another that meets the criteria.



She already has books but the assignment calls for 2 articles from a 
scholarly source.  They need to be in the English language.  There 
have been many articles written about the subject of the expulsion, 
but very few are about the causes.



If anyone can supply such an article I would really appreciate it.



Thank you in advance.

Does anyone have access to the following article?

Tower-Like Torah Arks, the Tower of Strength and the Architecture of 
the Messianic Temple," Journal of the Warburg and Courtauld 
Institutes, 73 (2010), 65-98.

If so, I would greatly appreciate getting a copy of it.

Re: [ha-Safran]: Article by Anne Roiphe

[Heidi G Lerner]

Dear Chaya,

f it is helpful, I beleive that the date of publication is:

January 12, 1996.

This information was obtained from p. 112 of
"Two Jews, three opinions: a collection of twentieth-century American 
Jewish quotations."-[via Google Books].

My institution does not carry that date.

RE: [ha-Safran]: Article by Anne Roiphe

[Miller, Philip]

Dear Chaya -

This is a stretch, so forgive this speculation, for I do not have the
tools at hand to carry out this research where I am.

I clearly remember from the mid- or late 1970s (for the HUC-NY was still
on West 68th Street), the NY Times ran an Op-Ed piece by Anne Roiphe on
being Jewish and loving Christmas. It sparked a firestorm of letters,
and if I am not mistaken, it led her to write another piece defending
her notion on Jewish identity.

My suggestion is to try the NY Times Index.

Best of luck, and let us know how it turns out.

Warmest best,

Phil

[ha-Safran]: Article by Anne Roiphe

[Chaya Wiesman]

Dear Safranim,

I have a request for an article by Anne Roiphe called "On Being 
Jewish: beyond bagels and disasters".  It was printed about 20 years 
ago in the New York Observer.  It is a one page article and I haven't 
been able to find it anywhere.

The earliest I can access the NY Observer is 1999 and that is still too late.

Thank you in advance for your help.

For those of you whose libraries serve the general public as well as 
your institution's, you may wish to peruse a recent article by mark 
Lenker and Elizabeth Kocevar-Weidinger in the September 2010 (71:5) 
issue of _College & Research Libraries_.  The title is"Nonaffiliated 
users in academic libraries:  Using W.D. Ross's Ethical Pluralism to 
make sense of the tough questions".  I think the guidelines and 
ever-changing considerations are well-worth reviewing.  With 
decreased budgets and cutting of staff, most libraries open to the 
public face issues concerning not only computer use, but access to 
reference services, circulation privileges, special collections, use 
of meeting rooms, and interlibrary loan privileges.  Of particular 
note was the phenomenon of increased distance education programs and 
the subsequent demand on library services wherever the students and 
faculty reside.

Mo'adim l'simcha everyone

I am looking of a copy of the following article:

"Coping with the Virtues of the Land of Israel: An analysis of Bavli 
Ketubot 110b-112a."  Written by Jeffrey L. Rubenstein, New York 
University. I have a copy that someone printed in the past but the 
Hebrew text did not come out and there are no indications of where if 
came from. It looks like it could be a paper, dissertation, etc., but 
I don't know.  I am not able to access the Index to Periodicals to 
find out if it is listed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Colleagues, I am in need of an article from Hadassah Magazine, June 
1969, titled:"The Ketubah in Jewish Art,"


Howdy do. In the web page of the Sinagoga conservador "La Javura" we 
put up the BJE Los Angeles 1978 filmstrip on Ketubot. Of course it's 
all translated into Spanish but whatever the language, it's fun to 
look at what you can do with filmstrips with today's technology.

Re: [ha-Safran]: Article in Scientific American

[Yosef Branse]

Shalom,

I don't know if this will be of much help, but there is an essay 
entitled "Goedel's Proof"
by Ernest Nagel and James R. Newman in the anthology "The World of 
Mathematics", edited by James R. Newman, published by Simon and 
Schuster in 1956. The essay
appears in Volume 3, pp. 1666-1695.
Oddly, there is no attribution of Scientific American as the source 
of the article -
perhaps that is a different version.
If you can't get hold of the Scientific American, maybe you can 
locate the book via
Inter-Libary Loan.

Good luck,

[ha-Safran]: Article in Scientific American

Dear Safranim,

Does anyone have back issues of Scientific American from the 
1950s?  I need an article by Ernest Nagel called "Godel's Proof" 
which was published sometime in 1956.  I do not have any further 
details and none of the databases go back that far.  The Scientific 
American database only goes as far as 1993.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Do any of you have an article, "Rescue Jewish Youth! A Message from

[ha-Safran]: Article "Zionism" in the Encyclopedia of Race and Racism

[Hayim Sheynin]

Safranim,

After reading the article thanks to S. Bernstein
I like to express solidarity with all the critiques
published on Hasafran.
I will not dwell on the long history of the way to
to the national homeland.
Instead I'll tell my own experiences that reject
many of the anti-Jewish ideas of the article.
I lived in Israel from 1972 to 1979 and taught in
Haifa University. 45% of my students were Arabs
and Druzes. There were no restrictions to their
admissions, even they as a rule had a much
lower school preparation than Jewish students.
I befriended some of my students and visited
some of their villages near Haifa and Tabor mountain.
Among the Arab students were some that
either belong to anti-Israeli organizations or
just had anti-Israeli feelings. Many of them
changed their opinions during the 70s.
As an example I can bring the Arab and Hebrew poet
Naim Araida (or Araidi), who from pro-PLO man
became pro-Zionist. He was my student for couple of years.
The problem was not only with Arabs, but also with
Israeli left, which supported anti-Israeli Arabs and
provoked them for anti-Israeli activities.
The author of the article "Zionism" in his references
brings works of only anti-Israeli Arabs and leftist
historians-revisionists.
This article like all the writings of the "post-Zionist"
historians is harmful to state of Israel and to Jewish
world and should be dealt as a propagandist literature
similar to the Protocalls of Elders of Zion.

Dr. Hayim Y. Sheynin

[ha-Safran]: Article on future of JNUL in Ha'aretz

[Zachary Baker]

Colleagues,

The November 2 issue of Ha'aretz includes an article concerning the 
future of the Jewish National and University Library, in Jerusalem - 
about which our Israeli colleagues have briefed us as conventions past.
 From the article:

New chapter in a sad saga
By Aryeh Dayan

A few weeks from now, a Knesset vote will bring the curtain down on 
an 11-year legal and political saga, in the course of which the State 
of Israel nearly lost a unique opportunity to preserve something of 
its culture. If the National Library Law passes its second and third 
readings, it will mark the end of the first chapter in a melodrama 
starring a huge donation, a legislative proposal, power struggles 
between the Knesset and the government, and a treasure trove of 
Hebrew and Jewish culture. The second chapter will end a few years 
hence, with the completion of a splendid new building somewhere 
between the Supreme Court and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem - 
the new home of Israel's national library.

[ha-Safran]: Article by Lisa Silverman

[Linda Silver]

Mazel tov to Lisa Silverman for an excellent article called "Bearing 
Witness Through Picture Books" in the March 1, 2007 issue of School 
Library Journal, 
http://www.schoollibraryjournal.com/article/CA6420400.html
After a cogent introduction, it consists of a bibliography of recent 
illustrated books about the Holocaust, plus some videos and websites. 
Children's books of Jewish content need the exposure that articles 
like Lisa's give them and perhaps, among its benefits, it will 
inspire more Judaic librarians to publish in the secular (as well as 
Jewish) children's literature media.

[ha-Safran]: Article on JNUL in Ha'aretz

[Zachary Baker]

Safranim,

The March 3 issue of Ha'aretz has an article on the Jewish National 
and University Library, "A Problem Shelved Too Often," by Benny Mer:
http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/pages/ShArt.jhtml?itemNo=689870.

In addition to providing historical background, the article discusses 
ongoing efforts to separate the JNUL from the Hebrew University and 
transform it into a national library "tout court."  These efforts are 
being encouraged by the Rothschild family's Yad Hanadiv 
Foundation.  The article includes segments of an interview with 
Rosalind Duke, acting director and head librarian of the JNUL.  Those 
who attended the 2003 AJL convention in Toronto may remember 
Rosalind's presentation regarding the JNUL.

[ha-Safran]: Article by Nicholas Pickwoad

[Zachary Baker]

The paper on Hebrew book bindings, by Nicholas Pickwoad, bears the title 
"The Problems Presented by the Jewish Books of the Eighteenth and Early 
Nineteenth Centuries."  It was published in a conference proceedings volume:

International Conference on Conservation and Restoration of Archival and 
Library Materials, Erice, 22nd-29th April 1996.  Edited by Carlo Federici 
and Paola F. Munafo, with the assistance of Daniela Costantini.  Palermo: 
G. B. Palumbo, 1999.  Vol. 1, pp. 333-345.

Maria Grandinette, Head of Conservation Treatment in the Stanford 
University Libraries, drew my attention to this paper, which is based on 
Mr. Pickwoad's experience as a paper conservator working on Hebrew books in 
the Harvard University Library's Judaica Division.

Re: [ha-Safran]: Article

[Andrea Rapp]

THank you so much for posting the article about the
non-coverage of Israel's tsunami aid and other
information.
   People so often blame Israel for incompetent PR
efforts, but with the largest foreign press corps per
capita of any country, Israel is clearly (to me) not
the responsible party for the coverage or lack thereof
that it gets.  I remember when the Israeli government
called a press conference to display the tens of
millions of smuggled weapons aboard the Karin A
weapons ship.  The press simply wasn't interested in
reporting that someone was obviously preparing for a
very big war - and it wasn't Israel.

[ha-Safran]: Article

[RITA ALLEN]

It often happens that an article appearing on the HaSafran web-site is 
something that I will forward to my Rabbi, since this is a source that is 
unfamiliar to him. Now I've received, from another source, a very 
interesting article, which I am forwarding to HaSafran.


   BRITISH ISRAEL GROUP: Articles of the week - 31 December 2004

Jewish World Review Dec. 30, 2004 / 18 Teves, 5764
The U.N's politics of humanitarianism  By RACHEL RASKIN-ZRIHEN

http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | 
You're unlikely to learn this in
the world's newspapers, but Israel was among the first nations to offer
help to those affected by last week's terrible disaster in south Asia.
It sent doctors, supplies and set aside $100,000 for each nation hit
by the recent tsunamis, according to reports in the Jewish Telegraph Agency
(JTA). This wouldn't be such a big deal, except that reports of nations
offering help released by the United Nations and printed in newspapers
worldwide, don't include it. They do, however, include the donations several
other countries whose contribution were as much or less. One report lists
donations of personnel and material separately. Israel, which sent
four top doctors from its Hadassah Hospital (including its head of general
surgery and trauma, its chief of pediatrics and two anesthesiologists,) to 
Sri Lanka, the JTA reports, was not mentioned.
  You may not know that the American Jewish World Service expected to
send its first shipment of medicine Tuesday to Sri Lanka, Indonesia and
India. The JTA reports the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee is
working with its office in Bombay and elsewhere to coordinate efforts to
provide food, water, clothing and shelter to affected countries. B'nai B'rith
is accepting donations to help victims, and an Orthodox outreach group in
Thailand also responded to the crisis. It dispatched a rabbi to Phuket
to aid rescue efforts, and turned three of their Thailand outposts into
crisis centers where survivors can call home, have a free meal or receive
funds for new clothing and medical help.
  You also might not learn, unless you searched the information out like
I did, that there were perhaps 200 Jewish victims of the disaster still
missing as of Tuesday, according to Israel's Foreign Ministry, which
told the JTA that at least 33 Israelis are receiving treatment in hospitals
in the region. I've read about the terrible losses suffered in this
disaster by citizens of many other nations, but not a word about these 
people, which include a Belgian Jewish couple whose 11 month old son was 
reportedly ripped from their arms and drowned.
  In the same issue Tuesday, the JTA reported about a couple of Israeli
scientists making a breakthrough in the treatment of AIDS, which
follows closely on the heals of the two Israeli scientists recently awarded
the Nobel Prize for their breakthrough in cancer treatment. But that's
another story you're not likely to read much of in the mainstream press.
  Maybe I'm paranoid, but I can't think of an innocent explanation for
the omission of Israel's contributions to this and other humanitarian
efforts worldwide by the UN and the world's main media outlets. I can't help
feeling it's a not-so-subtle attempt to isolate Israel and the Jewish
people from the world community, at least in print and therefore in
public opinion, even while Israel and many Jews go about the business of
behaving like human beings.
  Not that they're doing what they do for recognition, but it's
enormously frustrating that this keeps happening. For instance, did you 
know that Israel was the first country in the world, even before the United
States, to conduct a national moment of silence for the 9/11 victims? This 
was done even as many Palestinians shouted, danced and handed out candy. 
Maybe you didn't know about that, either.
  The UN should just admit it despises the Jewish state and the Jewish
people, has no intention of ever recognizing anything positive either
ever does, and dispense with the pretense of fairness once and for all. But
dispelling the myth that Israel in particular and Jews in general are
the world's bad guys is imperative not just to combat growing worldwide
anti-Semitism, but also for Jews who might, if they rely on the
mainstream media for information, be starting to question themselves. Not to
worry ,though, the humanity of the people the former head of Malaysia
recently accused of "inventing" human rights remains intact, no matter what 
you read or don't read in the paper.

[ha-Safran]: Article justifying libraries

[Heidi Estrin]

Hi. I recall that a few years ago, an article was making the rounds of AJL, 
on the theme of "why I love my Jewish library."  Does anyone have a copy of 
such an article?  If so, can you email or fax it to me (numbers below)?  I 
would really appreciate it!

[ha-Safran]: Article by Lee Kaplan

[Eli Wise]

I was very curious to see the suggested link for the article by Lee Kaplan.
These issues has been discussed on Hasafran many times. It is a well known
fact that SRRT, ALA, and others are using professional venues to spread
hatred of Israel. I myself was on a local talk show  in Philadelphia during
ALA meetings in January 2003 to outline the history and response to the
Palestinian libraries resolution of 2002. How many times will the
anti-Israel lobby in ALA continue to spread venom and hatred with distortion
to the professional library world without AJL taking a public stand. Even
the response by AJL to the day school bombing in Montreal before Pesach was
minimal. Kaplan outlines the numerous times ALA and its colleagues promote
damaging philosophies, defend terrorists as oppressed minorities, and the
like. AJL needs to be more definitive about its positions and stands
regarding Israel concerns. If AJL does not protest the image of Israel may
be so distorted that it might be too late to protest.

Terrorism as a tool for political purposes is murder and kills innocent
people. If anyone defends such people and their actions through
philosophical concerns and misplaced sympathy they are giving the terrorists
tacit approval of their actions. Does AJL have to wait until one of its
members institutions are bombed to react. What people perceive as
anti-Zionist or anti-Israel is just  a veiled version of anti-Semitism. In
America we have a right to have our opinions heard. I can't understand why
AJL doesn't speak up more than it does. That is why I amazed that this
article was suggested to the membership.

[ha-Safran]: Article in Teva HaDvarim

[Mark Stover]

If anyone has access to the Israeli nature magazine "Teva HaDvarim," could 
you help me figure out a standardized transliteration of the bibliographic 
citation of the article (mainly title and author) in the June 2004 issue 
that begins on page 98 entitled "Ha-keren ha-y'rokah" ("The Green Flash", a 
phenomenon in astronomy also known as "le rayon vert")?   The article might 
be at the magazine's website at http://www.tevahadvarim.co.il/, but if so, 
I couldn't find it there.  The author's last name is Yitzchak and the 
photographer is Jef Raskin.

Thanks.

[ha-Safran]: Article About Mae Weine

[Rachel Kamin]

As promised at Convention, below is the text of the article about Mae Weine 
that appeared in the Detroit Jewish News last month.

THE SHUL LIBRARIAN
Shelli Liebman Dorfman, Staff Writer
The Detroit Jewish News, June 18, 2004

Next week, when the membership of the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) 
assembles at its annual convention in New York, a heartfelt tribute will be 
read in honor of Mae Weine.  Mrs. Weine of Oak Park, a former national 
president of the organization who attended almost every convention for the 
past 40 years, died June 5, 2004, at age 92.  Mrs. Weine, a member of 
Congregation Beth Shalom, was a synagogue librarian at Congregation Beth 
Abraham Hillel Moses (now Beth Ahm) for many years. "She didn't resign from 
her work there until she was 90," said daughter Judith Sinnott of Allen Park.

"Mae was passionate about educating Judaica librarians-in-training," reads 
the tribute, written by Barbara Leff, past president of the New York-based 
AJL, and Ronda Rose, AJL president-elect. "She was a warm, outgoing woman, 
who worked tirelessly for the association."  Mrs. Weine was one of the AJL 
founders and helped form chapters in Philadelphia, Southern California and 
Detroit. She also taught workshops and wrote articles and publications to 
promote library standards.

"I was always amazed by her energy, her passion, her knowledge and her 
commitment to the profession," said Rachel Erlich Kamin, director of Temple 
Israel Libraries and Media Center in West Bloomfield and immediate past 
president of AJL's Michigan Chapter.  A professional highlight for Mrs. 
Weine was her creation of the Weine Classification System for Judaica 
Collections. "It is one of two classification systems that is used in 
countless Jewish libraries all over the world," Kamin said.  "The Weine 
Classification scheme was the first one to address Judaic cataloging in the 
smaller Judaica library, such as a school or synagogue," Ronda Rose said.

But far before her years as a librarian, Mrs. Weine was a wife and mother. 
"She had a master's degree in library science from Drexel University in 
Philadelphia, but she didn't get it until her kids were teenagers," said 
daughter Judith. "But she was always a lover of books and literature. All 
she ever did was read. When we were kids, she informally ran the library at 
Beth Israel Congregation in Camden, N.J., where my dad was rabbi."

Family and holidays were central to Mrs. Weine. "She was an ultra-loyal 
family person and the personal glue that held the family together," Judith 
said. "And she was always the one to organize holiday gatherings, like the 
family seder at Beth Shalom."  With as much acclaim as she had received 
professionally, Judith said, "she wasn't interested in being in the 
limelight. She was very retiring, modest and unpretentious," she said.

At Mrs. Weine's funeral, her niece Reva Barahal of Southfield read a letter 
from Maureen Reister, an AJL member from Dallas. Reister recounted Mrs. 
Weine's warm, friendly welcome when she was a newcomer to the association. 
"I was new to Judaica librarianship and had no idea how famous Mae was -- 
what she and her work meant to the library world," she wrote. "It was a 
privilege to know the woman who wrote the brilliant classification scheme, 
a wonderful gift to the Jewish library world."

Mrs. Weine was an active member of the national AJL and the group's 
Michigan Chapter. Well into her 80s, Mrs. Weine continued to travel to 
conventions, meetings and events. "Even with her extensive experience in 
the field, she felt that she could still learn from her colleagues," Kamin 
said. "And, of course, we all learned so much from her."

Mae Weine is survived by her son, Daniel Weine of Georgia; daughter and 
son-in-law, Judith and Michael Sinnott of Allen Park; sister, Grace 
Friedman of Los Angeles; granddaughter, Deborah and Shimon Nakar of Ramat 
Bet Shemesh, Israel; great-grandchildren, Ta'ir Nakar, Tamar Nakar, Shira 
Nakar, Yedidiah Nakar, Natan Nakar, Brandon Sinnott, Christian 
Sinnott.  She was the beloved wife of the late Rabbi Max Weine; dear 
mother-in-law of the late Florence Weine.  Interment was at Machpelah 
Cemetery. Contributions may be made to a Jewish charity of one's choice or 
Beaumont Hospice. Arrangements by Hebrew Memorial Chapel.

[ha-Safran]: Article in Tradition

Dear Colleagues,
One of my colleagues came across a reference to Rav Soloveitchik's eulogy 
of his Macheteiniste.  The article was titled "A Tribute to the Rebbetzin 
of Talne" and it was published in Tradition magazine in the Spring of 
1978.  Does anyone have a copy of this article?
Thank you.

Safranim-
I am trying to locate some poems on the Holocaust published by Yemenite 
author Yosef Tobi in the journal Afikim. Alas, our subscription was 
cancelled years ago. I tried to access RAMBI today but it seems to be down. 
The professor searching for the poems did not have any idea when they were 
published.

Can anyone provide some guidance.

[ha-Safran]: Article on Musikah mizrahit in Ma'ariv

[Yossi Galron]

Safranim,

A patron is looking of an article that was probably published in Ma'ariv 
(Israeli daily newspaper) in June 1991

The following is an English excerpt from the paper, but she does not have 
an  exact citation (date, pages, etc.)

"The article is actually a general one that deals with why people in 
neighborhoods like shekhunah dalet and kiryat ata ---don't speak "good" 
Hebrew and commenting on the "Turkish, Turkish"  trend in Mizrahi music. I 
can give you a couple of alleged quotes from the  article in English ---

The Neighborhood Abandoned Hebrew

"There is no more insulting definition than the connection between a Greek
tone and the spice of an oud, between the North African curl and Nomi Shemer
's Hebrew. So it's all over. There is no continuation of the Mediterranean
experiment. The market only buys heavy Arabic, or Turkish Turkish. They want
Arab stuff not Greek Hebrew. The public's request climaxes in Ofer Levi and
Zahava Ben. These are the two making business boil. It is from the Be'er
Sheva quarter, which is the Kiryat Ata quarter [also a poor industrial
neighborhood]. Take the history of the twenty-one years that she has been
living, and understand what the Shkunat Dalet (The "D" neighborhood where
Zehava Ben grew up) is and why they don't speak Hebrew there.
 Tsror, Rino. The neighborhood abandoned Hebrew, Maariv sof ha shavua
(end of the week). June 1991. This is a weekend supplement that did not list
page numbers.
Can someone identify it?

RE: [Ha-Safran] Article Search

[Yosef Branse]

Shalom,

Jeff Corbett asked about an article entitled "A Piece of Liver."  From the
brief description, I was reminded of a series articles that appeared years ago
in the English edition of the Yated Ne'eman newspaper, by an English author
named Tuvia Cohen. The general format of the series was to use a description of
some aspect of nature to stimulate our appreciation of the wonders of HaShem's
world. Sort of a frum Isaac Asimov. The essays were well written in a very
clear, conversational style.

As it happens, many of the articles were published in a book, entitlted
"Designer World", with a Hebrew subtitle "Niflaot ha-Bore". Tuvia Cohen was a
pseudonym for Rabbi Avrohom Katz. It was published in 1994 by :
GJBS
35-37 Gladstone Terrace
Gateshead, Tyne and Wear
NE8 4H3
England

It contains haskamot (approbations) from the late Gateshead Rav, Bezalel Rakow,
Rav Matisyahu Solomon, and the late Rav Mordechai Miller.

The essay you are looking for is on pages 14-19. If you can't locate it in your
area, or through Inter-Library Loan, I could send you a photocopy (the book is
from my family's collection; I haven't checked whether is is found in the
catalogs of Israeli university libraries, or anywhere else.)

Sincerely,

[Jeff Corbett]

Hello.

A patron asked me to find an article. I was not given a proper citation. The
title is "A Piece of Liver." Possibly it appeared in an England periodical
or by an English author. The article describes that the human liver is a
wondrous organ that rivals any man made chemical factory. The article
begins:

If you take the train from Gateshead to London, you are travelling
southwards. Ten minutes after the journey has begun, look out the window on
the left-hand side, and you will see a chemical factory.

If anyone has a pdf of this article or a link to it online, please let me
know.

Thanks.
