The Return of the Repressed: Modern Jewish Studies in JQR

The Return of the Repressed:Modern Jewish Studies in JQR David N. Myers As one reads the editorial announcement with which Cyrus Adler and Solomon Schechter opened the new series of JQR in July 1910, one gets the distinct sense that they felt themselves at the dawn of a new era. "America," they wrote, "is fast becoming the center of Jewry, and in all likelihood, will become also the center of Jewish learning in the English world." The transatlantic passage of the Jewish Quarterly Review from London to Philadelphia, from the editorial control of Claude Montefiore and Israel Abrahams to Adler and Schechter, symbolized a broader transition of Jewish scholarship from its European birthplace to its new American home. Well before the devastation of the Shoah—and alongside the fledgling Zionist enterprise in Palestine—America was indeed becoming a center of Jewish scholarship. At first, this growth took place mainly in rabbinical seminaries and Jewish colleges (such as JQR's first sponsor, Dropsie College). Later in the twentieth century, the main institutional venue shifted from seminaries and colleges to the university, where Jewish studies has become a mainstay of humanistic inquiry. One could well imagine Adler and Schechter feeling a mix of sadness and satisfaction that Dropsie College did not survive, but its library—and JQR itself—were taken over and put to new use by a research center at the University of Pennsylvania. Quite similar to the founding fathers of Wissenschaft des Judentums, the first American editors conceived of their journal as filling a need not currently being met by the existing scholarly literature. Research in Jewish studies in America, they asserted, followed either a theological or local historical bent. By contrast, they aimed for a measure of Schechterian catholicity by embracing work in Jewish history, literature, philology, and archaeology. That said, the journal unavoidably tracked the research interests of the editors. Semitic philology and Bible à la Adler were amply represented in [End Page 345] the first years, as were articles that reflected Schechter's passion for and expertise in Geniza materials. What was conspicuously lacking was work on modern Jewish history. The editors made clear that they did not intend to retain the old JQR's interest in English Jewish history. Nor did they feel obliged to replicate the efforts of the American Jewish Historical Society. And yet, topics of modern concern crept into the pages of the journal. In the second issue (October 1911), the scholar of medieval Hebrew literature from JTS, Israel Davidson, wrote an essay that eventually wended its way around to its main subject: a review of a new dictionary devoted to the importation of Hebrew and Chaldean words into Yiddish coedited by C. D. Spivak and the renowned translator Yehoash. In a lengthy prelude to this discussion, Davidson offered an intriguing survey of both Hebrew and Yiddish literature in which he revealed himself to be impressively conversant with belles lettres and criticism in both languages. Even more interesting, though, were his judgments of the status of the two in his own day. Comparing the development of the two literary cultures, Davidson maintained that "in the short space of a quarter century Yiddish literature has made such rapid strides that it bids fair to outstrip modern Hebrew" especially in poetry and fiction. "Where is the Hebrew artist," he asked, "to equal Abramowitz [i.e., Mendele Mokher Seforim], unless we place his own Hebrew works side by side with his Yiddish? What Hebrew writer can measure up with the genius of [Y. L.] Peretz?" Davidson recognized that Hebrew literature was undergoing its own "extraordinary development." But he seemed intent on placing Yiddish even higher on the ladder of success, noting the "gigantic proportions" of its recent achievements. He even sought to explain its advantage over Hebrew by contrasting its mass appeal to the latter's "upper class" orientation. Davidson hastened to insist that his comparison had nothing to do with the ongoing ideological debate du jour about whether Hebrew or Yiddish was the national language of the Jews (as, for example, at the 1908 Czernowitz conference). One might speculate that he did not want to run afoul of the new editors of JQR, who sought...

Editors' Introduction

T H E JE W I S H Q UA R T E R LY R E V I E W, Vol. 94, No. 1 (Winter 2004) vii–ix E D I T O R S’ I N T R O D U C T I O N WHEN IN 1889 ISRAEL ABRAHAMS and Claude Montefiore launched the Jewish Quarterly Review as the first English-language journal of Jewish studies, their avowed aim was twofold. ‘‘One prominent portion of our new quarterly,’’ they wrote, ‘‘will be devoted to the past—to the better knowledge of Jewish history, literature, and theology in bygone days.’’ The editors, both Englishmen entering their fifth decade, added, however , that while the past would ‘‘receive its due share of attention, the present, in which we live, and through which the future is determined, must not be neglected.’’ Moreover, they expressed the hope that even the knowledge of the past offered in the pages of their journal would be not only ‘‘attractive and valuable to the pure scholar’’ but also presented ‘‘in such a form as to prove interesting as well as novel to the ‘general reader.’’’ It was their sincere belief that ‘‘these two objects are not by any means necessarily inconsistent.’’ As part of their commitment to the present, Abrahams and Montefiore published during their first year essays by Heinrich Graetz on ‘‘The Significance of Judaism for the Present and Future’’ (the lead article of the inaugural issue) and Israel Zangwill on ‘‘English Judaism.’’ At the same time, they published sober scholarly meditations like S. R. Driver’s article on ‘‘The Origin and Structure of the Book of Judges’’ and David Kaufmann ’s note on ‘‘The Word for Unhappy in Later Hebrew.’’ When, after twenty volumes, the founding editors decided ‘‘with much reluctance’’ to discontinue serial publication of JQR, they expressed greater satisfaction with its contribution to the study of ‘‘Biblical and later Jewish literature and theology’’ than with the degree to which it had served as a ‘‘medium for a living Theology.’’ Consequently, the nonacademic side of the journal was abandoned by the editors of the new series, Solomon Schechter and Cyrus Adler, who assumed responsibility for JQR in 1910 after publication rights were acquired two years earlier by the recently founded Dropsie College for Hebrew and Cognate Learning in Philadelphia (of which Adler was president and Schechter a member of the Board of Governors). ‘‘The fact that the REVIEW has passed from the hands of private individuals into those of a learned institution with a strict academic character,’’ they explained somewhat haughtily, ‘‘makes it incumbent upon the Editors to formulate their policy according to the The Jewish Quarterly Review (Winter 2004) Copyright 䉷 2004 Center for Advanced Judaic Studies. All rights reserved. viii JQR 94:1 (2004) model of academic publications. This will necessitate the exclusion of all matter not falling within the province of Jewish history, literature, philology , and archaeology, though popular articles on these subjects, if they are conceived in a scientific spirit and bear the marks of original research, will be readily admitted.’’ For nearly a century, JQR has followed this charge, serving as a bastion of scholarly excellence—indeed, as a home to work ‘‘conceived in a scientific spirit and bear[ing] the marks of original research.’’ Presided over by a line of distinguished editors extending from Adler and Schechter through Abraham Neuman and Solomon Zeitlin to Leon Nemoy to David Goldenberg, the journal has developed a well-deserved reputation for its meticulous scholarship and textual erudition in a number of important areas of study. Our goal, as JQR’s new editors, is a challenging one: to preserve that attention to textual detail so unmistakably identified with the journal and yet to recapture the original aim of the first editors of reaching a wide and diverse audience. This means expanding the circle of contributors and readers of JQR, appealing to both the ‘‘pure scholar’’ and the ‘‘general reader.’’ With this in mind, we plan to publish innovative work that traverses the many disciplinary and chronological boundaries of Jewish studies. In the new JQR, the ancient will stand alongside the modern, the historical alongside the literary, the textual alongside the contextual...

Cyrus H. Gordon (1908-2001): A Giant Among Scholars

Cyrus H. Gordon, one of the true giants in the fields of biblical studies and ancient Near Eastern studies, died on March 30, 2001, at the age of 92, at his home in Brookline, Mass. Gordon's career was intimately connected to the city in which this journal is published and to the two institutions which underlie its history. Gordon was born in Philadelphia; he took his three degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, all the while taking courses at Dropsie College as well; and later he returned to the latter as a faculty member (see below for details). Accordingly, it is most gratifying for me to publish this tribute to my beloved teacher in the Jewish Quarterly Review. With Gordon's passing, the world of scholarship has lost not only a brilliant intellectual, but also the last link to a distant past. I refer not to antiquity, but rather to the period of the 1920s and 1930s, when academic Nephilim walked the earth, when the Near East still was untouched by modernity, and when the major discoveries at Nuzi and Ugarit were revolutionizing biblical studies. Together these elements created an age now romanticized by younger scholars, one known only through the publications of academics mostly long dead, yet Cyrus Gordon was there for it all. Gordon became involved in the field at a very young age: he published his first article in 1929 at age 21, and he paid his first visit to the Near East in 1931 at age 23. Because of this early start, Gordon knew personally many of the luminaries of the early 20th century: his famed teachers James Montgomery and Max Margolis, the archaeologists Sir Flinders Petrie and Sir Leonard Woolley, the Assyriologist F Thureau-Dangin, the biblicist Pere Marie-Joseph Lagrange of the E1cole Biblique, the great modern Hebrew poet Hayyim Nahman Bialik, the talmudist Yaakov Nahum Epstein, and many similar individuals. A story that Gordon related to me only a year or so ago illustrates the point well: at a recent informal gathering in Boston, Gordon was describing his early fieldwork to a young archaeologist from Harvard, when the young man turned to Gordon and said with amazement, You dug with Woolley at Ur and you're still alive? During the four years of 1931-1935, Gordon experienced a traditional Near Eastern lifestyle that is rapidly disappearing from this world. The majority of this time was spent in Iraq, in small villages, living among Arabs, Kurds, Yezidis, Mandeans, and Aramaic-speaking Jews and Christians. But

Jewish Learning in American Universities: The First Century (review)

Reviewed by: Jewish Learning in American Universities: The First Century Ira Robinson Jewish Learning in American Universities: The First Century. By Paul Ritterband and Harold S. Wechsler. Bloomington and Indianapolis: Indiana University Press, 1994. xviii + 346 pp. The academy has historically been a place in which people reflected on themselves and the significance of what they were doing. Practitioners of what is generally called “Jewish Studies” are no exception to this rule. The appearance of this volume, as well as that of other articles and studies, examining the impact of Jewish studies or telling the parallel story of Jewish academics at American universities, bespeaks a sense of maturity which has come to the field in the last several years and which invites reflection on its origins. Whether Jewish Studies as a part of the North American university scene is flourishing or floundering is a matter for academic debate. In its nineteenth century origins, however, the criteria for success were considerably different as was the subject matter encompassed in the words “Jewish learning.” As well, communal and university expectations of this learning have differed dramatically between the nineteenth century and our own. Though Hebrew was an early component of American college education, it was present for specifically Christian theological purposes and is not really part of the story Ritterband and Wechsler tell. In the late nineteenth century, however, the rise of universities, like Johns Hopkins, which avidly pursued advanced studies on the model of contemporary German universities, gave “Jewish learning” an entree into the American academy. [End Page 141] This entree came about in the context of departments of Semitic studies, in which Hebrew and Hebraic/Judaic culture were legitimate, though not major parts. These studies were admissable into non-Jewish academic settings because they were viewed as part of a more universal context. This appealed to the leaders of the late nineteenth century American Jewish community and their desire for the retention of a Judaic identity within a more universalistic society and culture. Indeed, as the authors point out, it was expected that Jewish communities would support local university Semitics programs and in most cases this was the case. One of the major points the authors make is that the Judaic/Hebraic element in university Semitics programs withered, or at least did not expand in the early twentieth century. One of the major reasons for this, to which the authors do not give enough attention, is the rise of institutions, such as Dropsie College, the Jewish Theological Seminary and Hebrew Union College, which engaged in Judaic/Hebraic studies as their central focus. This alternative vision of a Jewish presence in the academy, fostered by Cyrus Adler, the first graduate of John’s Hopkins’ Semitics program, who was simultaneously president of Dropsie and the Jewish Theological Seminary had as its model the German Wissenschaftdes Judentums which subsisted in its native Germany outside the university context. For most intents and purposes, the first half of the twentieth century saw Jewish learning in America pursued almost exclusively in American Jewish institutions. The major exceptions to this rule were Harry Wolfson at Harvard and Salo Baron at Columbia. This situation, like much else in American higher education, changed radically after War II. In the postwar era, Hebraic and Jewish studies began to take hold in many key American universities, particularly those located within cities with large Jewish communities and created a situation in which Jewish studies transferred its major base of operations from specifically Jewish institutions to secular universities. Symbolic of this process is the transformation of Dropsie College from an independent institution to the Center for Jewish Studies at the University of Pennsylvania. However this process, of the utmost importance to an understanding of present developments in the field, is analyzed much more sketchily than earlier developments. That the reason for this brevity is that mention (and possibly criticism) of people still alive and active in the field could be minimized is not unlikely. In sum, this book contains somewhat less than one might have wished. It nonetheless is a thorough and stimulating account of the beginnings of a process of great significance in American Jewish history. [End Page 142] It will be...

Cyrus Adler, Non-Zionism, and the Zionist Movement: A Study in Contradictions

For close to fifty years, Cyrus Adler was one of American Jewry's most influential communal leaders and public servants. Taking part in the founding of the Jewish Publication Society (1888), on whose various committees he would serve as chairman throughout his life, Adler was a founder of the American Jewish Historical Society (1892), and its president for more than twenty years. Together with Louis Marshall, Jacob Schiff, Oscar Straus, Felix Warburg, and his cousin, Judge Mayer Sulzberger, Adler played an instrumental role in organizing the American Jewish Committee (1906), and served as its president from 1929 until his death in 1940. During his thirtytwo years (1908–1940) as president and chief administrative officer of the Dropsie College for Hebrew and Cognate Learning, Adler shaped the institution into one of the preeminent institutions of higher Jewish learning in America. When Solomon Schechter died in 1915, Adler succeeded him to the presidency of the Jewish Theological Seminary, with which he had been closely associated since its founding in 1886, while remaining president of Dropsie as well. Serving as president of the seminary for twenty-five years, Adler played a central role in the founding of the United Synagogue, whose presidency he also held.

Ein Aquila-Index in Vorbereitung

After the publication of the Oxford Concordance to the Septuagint and the other Greek Versions of the O.T. by (HATCH and) REDPATH it was soon felt that the presentation of the hexaplaric material was not satisfactory. In listing the passages it merely gives rows of figures. For everything else, the Greek words or contexts and their Hebrew or Greek equivalents, and what there may lurk under a strange translation, the peruser must look up FIELD'S Hexapla. Among the critics M. L. MARGOLIS decided for fresh indexes of the hexaplaric authors to be done by some of his own students at the Dropsie College in Philadelphia under his supervision. Unfortunately this plan of MARGOLIS', like others, wat not carried through. Only Joseph REIDER'S Aquila Index was finished. However, as the idea was to have the indexes published together, REIDER'S manuscript has remained shelved from 1913 onward. His Dropsie Thesis 1) gives an idea of the high quality of his work. I need not expatiate on the importance of the later translators of the O.T., the Three, for its textual history. In places they offer variants of the masoretic text and, more frequently, alternatives of its interpretation some of which have parallels elsewhere. More particularly, Aquila readings are an important component of the variants found in the LXX evidence. They came into MSS because Origen and other revisors of the LXX drew on Aquila in filling in gaps of the LXX as compared with the present Hebrew. It has always been momentous, though at times difficult, to trace Aquila behind
