Frederick Carl Frieseke
(American, 1874-1939)
Keine Abbildungen verfügbar
Frieseke was born on April 7, 1874 in Owosso, Michigan and began his professional life as a cartoonist. Deciding to become a painter, he studied first at the Art Institute of Chicago from 1893 to 1896 followed by a year of instruction at the Art Students League of New York. He went to France to further his education, arriving in Paris in 1897. He worked in the atelier of Jean-Joseph Benjamin-Constant and Jean-Paul Laurens at the Académie Julian. He also received criticism, if not formal instruction, from Auguste-Joseph Delecluse, and he studied very briefly--one source states for only one week--in James McNeill Whistler's Académie Carmen. Nonetheless, Whistler's influence on Frieseke's developing style was strong. Frieseke imbibed from the paintings of the great master an appreciation for the "infinite gradation" of color that was possible through paint. The flattened space and flowing line of the Art Nouveau style were also significant influences in this formative period of the artist's career.
By 1901, the first year a Paris address is known for Frieseke, he was residing at 51, boulevard Saint-Jacques in the Montparnasse quarter, an area favored by American artists. He was within a few short blocks of Delecluse's atelier and the Académie Carmen. He achieved his first successes with paintings of the nude, one of which was purchased by the French Government in 1904. Parisian parks and boulevards and summer landscapes painted in the country rounded out his oeuvre at the turn of the 20th century.
Frieseke is believed to have visited Giverny as early as 1900; a summer visit in 1905 is documented; and in 1906 he and his wife moved into a two-story cottage that adjoined the property of Claude Monet. At Giverny his colleagues included the American painters Guy Rose, Lawton Parker, Edmund Greacen, and Richard E. Miller, with whose work Frieseke's is often compared. While he maintained an apartment and studio in Paris all his life, Giverny was Frieseke's summer residence for fourteen years. Once settled there, Frieseke began to focus on painting women in colorful garden settings. While he drew figures solidly, he rendered the surroundings in which he placed his models with the broken brushwork of Impressionism. Frieseke's palette during his Giverny period primarily consisted of greens, blues and violets, dazzling golds and oranges, and creamy whites, which capture and reflect the brilliant summer sunlight.
In 1920, Frieseke bought a summer home at Le Mesnil-sur-Blangy in Normandy and left the Giverny art colony. He commenced production of a large group of canvases representing frontally posed female figures, most often using his daughter Frances as model. The palette is darker than that of his Giverny period and shows more interest in qualities of chiaroscuro as he explored less brilliant light effects. Works painted after 1920 evidence a great deal of control on Frieseke's part, which, combined with the deeper palette, contribute to a sense of psychological awareness and intensity.
Frieseke exhibited extensively throughout his lifetime, both in the United States and in his adopted France. He earned a medal from the St. Louis Exposition of 1904; the Temple Gold Medal from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 1913; a prize at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition of 1915; and the William A. Clark Award from the Corcoran Gallery of Art in 1935. His dealer in the United States was William Macbeth, who regularly displayed his work in one-man and group exhibitions. Frieseke died on August 28, 1939, a few months after a major retrospective of his work opened at the Grand Central Art Galleries in New York City.
Frieseke¹s work is represented in the permanent collections of the Telfair Museum of Art, Savannah, Georgia; North Carolina Museum of Art, Raleigh; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the Art Institute of Chicago; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Museo d'Art Moderna de Ca¹Pesaro, Venice; and the Terra Museum of American Art, Chicago.

When the ladies of IMBA planned a mid-December weekend getaway in the mountains of Colorado, we assumed the riding would be on snow, not dirt. But since winter just hadn't happened yet, Plan B went into effect. We packed up our bikes and headed to the Peak One Dirt at the Frisco Bike Park. Set against the backdrop of the Ten Mile Mountain Range in the heart of Summit County, the park is located 1 mile east of Main Street along Colorado Highway 9. The facility, which opened in 2011, features jump and flow trails, pump tracks and dirt jumps suited for all skills and abilities.
As the female contingent of IMBA, we are a diverse group, representing all programs from membership and communications to operations and policy-making. Despite the differences in our daily pursuits, we, like our male counterparts, have one thing in common: We love to ride mountain bikes.
Most of us are new to dirt jumping so we asked our IMBA cohort, freerider and downhiller Tammy Donahugh to give us some pointers on getting air.

LILBURN - While Gwinnett County's three malls fill with last-minute shoppers, the Wal-Mart in Lilburn hosted a woman on a three-day shopping spree last week.Lilburn Police Detective Matt Lake said the 70-year-old woman spent three days inside the Wal-Mart at 4004 Lawrenceville Highway (U.S. Highway 29). She ate at the Blimpie, he said, although no information was available as to how she slept in the 24-hour store. The woman's name and the accompanying police report was unavailable at press time. Assistant Manager Danny Black declined to comment. Members of Wal-Mart's public relations staff did not return calls for information by press time. "She spent three straight days in Wal-Mart," Lake said. "Employees called the police department. She asked an officer for a ride home, she paid for her merchandise and the Lilburn police gave her a ride home." No information was available as to what the woman purchased or the cost of the merchandise she had amassed during three days of shopping.

Bugg, Linnane take Aurora's 9th Ward primary

AURORA — In a primary race with dismal turnout, 9th Ward candidates Edward Bugg and Marge Linnane have earned their spots on the April 9 ballot, and will now vie to represent the city's fastest-growing ward.
In a crowd of four candidates, Bugg gained about 45 percent of the vote and Linnane earned 23 percent, with all of 12 precincts reporting. Linnane led candidate Matt Harrington, a community relations director, by three votes.
According to Aurora Election Commission and DuPage Election Commission totals, less than 3 percent of registered 9th Ward voters, or 290 people, turned out to cast ballots in the Tuesday primary on Aurora's far East Side.
Bugg, 46, a real estate director, has applied to represent the ward two years ago when incumbent Alderman Leroy Keith resigned. Linnane, 60, a Glendale Heights assistant planning and zoning administrator, has been active in the ward but hasn't made a run for office before this year. Candidate Bob Shelton, a former Aurora alderman and regional sales manager, finished last in the primary race.
Bugg said he plans to run his next race like the primary — by campaigning on his economic vision for the ward and building community morale.
"I feel good about the way that I ran my campaign. But ... turnout was very, very low. There's a lot of work to be done," Bugg said.
The field of five candidates was narrowed to four on Sunday when candidate Michael Ochs dropped out of the race.

The 6th Annual Autumn Bacchanal is set for 1-5 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 29, at Spankies Restaurant. There will be a cocktail buffet from 1 to 2:30 p.m., followed by the live auction. Valet parking will be provided.
Tickets for the popular annual event are $25 a person if purchased before Friday, Oct. 27, or $30 at the door.
"This unique fundraiser offers this community a rare opportunity to collect the work of professional artists and, with their bids and purchases, provide critically needed scholarships," says Professor Sally Crain-Jager.
Proceeds go to "Festival of Arts" scholarships for art students on-campus and at the Craft Center. As a result of the past five Autumn Bacchanal events, 15 students were rewarded scholarships.
"This scholarship has been critical for enabling these students to continue their education in the arts," says Crain-Jager.
In addition to being a good cause, the Autumn Bacchanal is also a good time for participants. A cocktail buffet provided by Spankies and wine by regional wineries make for an enjoyable Sunday afternoon of eating and wine-tasting. Guests will also meet artists contributing to the auction, as well as art students.
And it's the artwork that makes the Autumn Bacchanal such a success each year.
"Graduates of our art degree programs, emerging professional artists and workshop instructors at the Craft Center, selected students in advanced studies, and the art faculty all join forces in providing guests with a glittering array of unique, original art," says Crain-Jager.
Media include paintings, drawings, and works in clay, fibers, glass, metals and wood, as well as mixed-media pieces. Art ranges from functional pieces such as ceramic and glass vessels to one-of-a-kind jewelry designs to two-dimensional works.
The idea for an annual Autumn Bacchanal began when Jon Josephson, owner of Spankies Restaurant and a Tennessee Tech graduate who took art classes while a student, wanted to provide a service to the university in a unique and fresh way.
"Since that time, 'J.J.' has faithfully supported this effort, enabling Tennessee Tech to build an endowed scholarship fund that will benefit art students for years to come," says Crain-Jager. "And the cocktail buffet served during the afternoon has become legendary! He provides a really wonderful variety of food."Call 931-372-3161 to reserve tickets.

Research related to pregnancy is supported through several NICHD organizational units, including (but not limited to) the:
Institute research focuses not only on the basic mechanisms of pregnancy loss, but also on the conditions that increase the likelihood of its occurrence and the best treatment options. The NICHD also studies stillbirth, including its causes, its mechanisms, risk factors for the condition, and treatments and follow-up care for those who have experienced a stillbirth. Some of these activities are described below.
Ectopic pregnancies occur when a fertilized egg grows outside the uterus. Ectopic pregnancies are not viable for the fetus, and can be dangerous and even fatal for a woman if the ectopic pregnancy is not diagnosed in time. Ectopic pregnancy occurs in about 2% of all pregnancies. In another condition, known as "blighted ovum," the fertilized egg fails to develop into an embryo and the pregnancy is not viable. Finding a relatively simple and reliable way to detect these abnormalities as early as possible in a pregnancy would help women and clinicians, while also enabling researchers to search for possible genetic factors involved in ectopic pregnancy and blighted ovum.
In healthy pregnancies, the fertilized egg develops into a mass of cells, known as the "blastocyst," which is encased in a layer of specialist "trophoblast" cells that aid in attaching the blastocyst to the wall of the uterus. The trophoblast cells develop into the placenta that surrounds and nourishes the developing embryo and fetus. In a recent pilot study, investigators gently collected cells from the cervical canal leading into the uterus, from women in early stages of pregnancy and from non-pregnant women. Using a specific staining technique, they found significantly fewer trophoblast cells―shed by the developing placenta―in pregnant women diagnosed with blighted ovum or ectopic pregnancy, compared with women with healthy pregnancies and non-pregnant women. This procedure could lead to a simpler, less invasive technique than those currently available for diagnosing abnormalities in pregnancy and furthering genetic studies of pregnancy abnormalities. (PMID: 19497946)
Although some causes for or contributors to miscarriage are known, such as chromosomal abnormalities and uterine or cervical abnormalities, many causes of pregnancy loss remain unknown. Some of the Institute's activities related to understanding miscarriage include (but are not limited to) the following.
Within the Stillbirth Collaborative Research Network (SCRN) , a network funded through the NICHD's PPB, studies focus on the causes of intrauterine fetal death, including placental abnormalities, fetal/genetic/structural abnormalities, infection, hypertension, and other maternal medical conditions, fetal stress hormones, and unexplained fetal death.8,10,11 A recent SCRN study detected genetic abnormalities in more than 40% of cases of stillbirth using microarray analysis instead of the traditional karyotyping test. Read more about this study and its findings.
Additional SCRN work centers on identifying and understanding additional stillbirth risk factors. Although it is difficult to prospectively identify woman who are at risk of stillbirth, previous work has shown that adverse outcome in a past pregnancy is a significant risk factor for stillbirth.9
To achieve its goals related to pregnancy loss research, the NICHD supports and participates in a variety of other activities, including NIH-wide efforts. Some of these are listed below.

It's been a somber few weeks for our nation and the world. The news ticker is flooded with the latest information (or lack of) on the missing jetliner, the unrest in Ukraine/Crimea, the horrific mudslide in Washington state and the earth quaking in southern California. Closer to home, those of us on Nantucket lived our own national headlines last week as a historic early spring snowstorm pounded our island relentlessly with wind and snow for almost 18 hours. As the storm wound down, but the wind howled on, we were horrified to turn on our televisions to see that our neighbors in Boston were embroiled in a headline of a different kind….the kind that destroys buildings and ultimately cost two of Boston's heroic firefighters their lives and injured many others.
It has been humbling and heartwarming to watch the response to this tragic event. The photo above expresses the sentiment of the Nantucket people, our Boston friends and perhaps the nation at large. On this day, the winds now calm, the flag hauntingly still, but flown at half-staff to honor the fallen heroes in reverence and gratitude for two men who most of us never knew, but who all of us collectively mourn as we know at any moment it could be one of us they are rushing to save. The Chaplain of the Boston Fire Department, Rev. Daniel J Mahoney said it best, "We take care of them in life and we take care of them in death."
These moments, when those who risk their lives for us are lost, remind all of us to stop and consider how much those charged with serving and protecting us do. I, for one, am entirely guilty of taking them for granted. On a tiny island like Nantucket the contribution our firefighters, police department, first responders and their many associates make is unlimited and unwavering. These unsung heroes wear many hats. You're as likely to see a fire captain teaching a fire-prevention class to school children as you are leading his crew to battle a dangerous blaze on Centre Street. Our police force works diligently to protect us from hardened criminals while also directing traffic through the downtown maze of street repairs. Our EMS and hospital workers give as much tender care to bumps and bruises from a bike path collision as they do to a 3 car pile-up on Milestone Road. In a nutshell…they "do it all," they do it selflessly and they do it for one reason – to keep all of us on Nantucket safe and secure.
Why not take some time in the coming weeks or months to stop by the Nantucket Fire Department or Nantucket Police Department and express your gratitude and appreciation to the men and women who serve our island? Design a family project to bake them cookies or pizzas, make a donation to their organizations or simply shake their hand or offer a hug. To the men and women who serve our island assiduously we want you to know….long before we have a need to punch those three ill-fated digits on our phones…how much we value all you do for the families, residents and visitors of Nantucket.
We salute you.

This is the recent news from NASA:
Any time after 9:30 a.m. PDT, watch for Endeavour from viewing locations that include the Bay Area Discovery Museum, Chabot Space and Science Center, the California State Capitol, Exploratorium, Lawrence Hall of Science and Monterey Bay Aquarium.
Next the aircraft will travel south, making a pass over NASA's Ames Research Center and Vandenberg Air Force Base before heading into the Los Angeles area.
The orbiter, atop its 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft (SCA), is scheduled to fly over northern California and a large area of the Los Angeles basin beginning at about 8:15 a.m. PDT, one hour later than originally planned. NASA, the California Science Center, and the Federal Aviation Administration delayed the start of the flight to increase the probability that fog over the San Francisco area will dissipate before the flyover.
During the four-and-a-half hour flight, social media users are encouraged to share their Endeavour sightings using the hashtags #spottheshuttle and #OV105, Endeavour's vehicle designation.
Members of the public are encouraged to share their photos of the SCA and Endeavour on NASA's Flickr group at:
At 8 a.m. PDT, NASA Television will air the departure of Endeavour from Edwards Air Force Base as it begins its California flyover:

If you are new to Indian Food or not quite sure what to order from their mouth-watering menu, try the six course Tasting Menu. We really enjoyed this menu and it was an easy choice on our initial visit. It comes with a Soup Flight (with three wonderful handmade soups), a Crab Cake, your choice of Tandoori Texas Quail or Tandoori Prawn & Dry Pack Sea Scallop, a Handmade Sorbet to cleanse your palate, your choice of Tandoori New Zealand Rack of Lamb or Tandoori Sea Bass, and you can finish it off with either the Cardamom-Spiced Chocolate Molten Cake or the Trio of Crème Brulee (Saffron, Cardamom & Pistachio). You really can't go wrong with the tasting menu and it represents a wide variety of Indian cooking techniques, flavors, and spices.
Upscale Indian food with a delicate balance of spices that clearly say Indian but doesn't overpower the flavors of the protein, legume or vegetable. Try the lightly battered pakoras, never tasted it quite like this before.
Horrible food and unbelievably bad & overrated place – This is a highly overrated place. We had dinner yesterday (18th June) and asked for Aloo-Gobi, shocked to get gobi-mutter (green peas). On questioning the staff, they took it back and returned with dry veg by adding some aloo (Potatoes) and again with plenty of green peas. Aloo Gobi is a very standard dish and having stayed in Punjab and knowing it very well, was utterly disappointed. The palak paneer was also below average and breads were not fresh. The waiter told that he has communicated to manager and cheff, who never bothered to talk to us and even shamelessly included the dish in the final bill. I suggest Houstonians's not to be influenced by claims of Kiran's and there are many smaller but much authentic Indian food joints and cheaper too...very unethical service, attitude and behavior by Kiran's..would never go again and recommend people to go to other better, more friendly and cheaper joints..
I don't think people really have a sense of good Indian food. I have experienced much better food and service at many other places. There is no point in spending so much and then have substandard food, service and arrogant behavior....useless place....
Great for take-out – Love the food from KIiran's - it really is the best. Mind you its not cheap, but when you get quality - you dont complain. The person who took my order on the phone was very nice to me and the order was ready when he said it would be ready.
Best Indian Restaurant in Houston – I celebrated my birthday at Kiran's over the summer after purchasing a Houston entrée certificate online. I was so excited to finally try Kiran's – it was Fabulous, beyond expectations. I spent a summer in Bangalore and tried Indian food at its finest restaurants.. Kiran's was even better! We ordered the chicken tikka and tandoori salmon. All the entrees were to die for! I can't wait to dine here again. Our experience was exceptional. This is by far one of the best restaurants in Houston. They also serve kingfisher beer which is hard to find here and their wine list was also great.
Ridiculous prices for mediocre food – It is painful how much money I spent on a few dishes when I took my friend out for a thank you dinner. The food was just plain jane. Im south asian, I know what our cuisine should taste like & I was completely disappointed. Just bc a place is fancy looking and you have a few mustached waiters walking around doesnt mean you can masquerade as a top of the line indian restaurant. please hire a chef who knows how make the dishes taste authentic and the spices to truly pop in your mouth. heck, i should make my mom open a restaurant; few of the indian restaurants in town hold a candle to our home cooked food.
Stuppid – I did not know what is so special in this restaurant,People have no sense of Indian food.
I am from england,and I have good knowledge about indian food,but kirans is dissapointing.None of the waiters knows what they serving?They look smart any way.
Its a waste of time and money.Portion size is too low.
Silverware and flat wares are dirty,
Feel lack of Indian concept/Management
look behind the numbers – I didn't like this place at all, and the prices shocked my conscience. Here's my advice: don't go. And if you're confused by the positive reviews, dig a little deeper. Look at the number of reviews the restaurant itself used to respond to. Now they don't respond to any. Do you think they've forgotten about the website? Unlikely. I think they've begun writing glowing reviews instead of apologizing. Check out how polarized the reviews are (i.e. I'm guessing 4 or 5 stars come from the owner and 1 star from the guests). Look at the number of positive reviews that come from people who have only reviewed one thing--Kiran's. Amazing, huh?
Flavors didn't Pop.. – The host taking reservations had no clue what opentable was even though we had booked through this website. Once i got there she told me that my reservation did show up in their system. Very confusing...
If you're looking for authentic, bold indian flavors;you will not enjoy this restaurant. If your palette prefers mildly seasoned foods with hints of indian spices then this might just be your dream come true.
The food is extremely pricey which was expected since the location and setup was very upscale. The ambiance was great. The food was okay, nothing to ride home about. We had gone during restaurant week 2009 which meant a pre-fixed menu. I ordered the fig stuffed tandoori quail which tasted really sweet. My friend ordered the tandoori halibut which was extremely bland and tasted like.. nothing. We also ordered samosas from the regular menu and those actually were decent. The one thing i did appreciate though was that the chef herself came out to inquire about what kind of chai we were hoping to have after dinner. That was sweet.
Aside from the samosas, the goat cheese naan was good as was the potato stuffed naan. Also, the lamb porterhouse was to die for. So if you're headed to Kirans.. get some suggestions on what to order and what not to. Trial and error is not the way to go here.. not with these prices...
Best Indian Food EVER! – Kiranls not only has the best food, their service is beyond amazing! The Chef herself came and greeted out table to make sure if everything was good! I simply loved everything!
Such a HUGE disappointment – We went to Kiran on 8/15 for Restaurant Week. Made a reservation 2 days prior for 8:30. Arrived at reservation time to be told that there would be a 30 minute wait...ok, fine, it happens. We weren't even so much as offered a cocktail while we waited. 35 minutes later we were seated. The waitress brought the drink menu and popadums. The popadums were STALE and the drink prices were absolutely 500% marked up. $25 for a split bottle of champagne. We decided to order a Taj Mahal beer, they no longer carried it, but it was still on the menu. So, we opted for a Kingfisher, large one to split. She came back with a small bottle and told us that they were out of the large bottles and that this small one was THE LAST ONE period. Great. So we shared our $4 bottle of Kingfisher and were already annoyed. They DID have San Pel. for water that was available so we had that as well.
The menu for Restaurant Week had 2 appetizer choices: Melon Soup
with a Canal of Pineapple & Lychee Sorbet
Drizzled with Basil Oil
Hearts of Romaine
with Homemade Bleu Cheese & Spicy Cashews
so, we ordered one of each. My melon soup tasted like cantaloupe with pepper in it, completely uninspiring. And the "salad" was a few pieces of lettuce with "cajun flavored" cashews thrown in. Awful. My dining companion is Indian and he was thoroughly disgusted. Now, we have had our share of Indian food, we love it and we've tried many, many different items. So, when the waitress came back and asked if I enjoyed my 1/4 eaten melon soup, I said "it was different" she then asked if I would like to try something "less exotic" Are you kidding me!?!? No thank you.
Entrees, now, the choices looked great. The Lamb Porterhouse was changed to Lamb Tenderloin, but my friend ordered it anyway. I had Tandoori Quail. The piece of lamb was ridiculously small, honestly. It was offensive. My quail was fine, but I felt like in order to make it seem like "Indian fusion" or "different" all they did was put it on a bed of pasta, it was sad. Not to mention that the menu stated that each dish was served with "seasonal vegetables" and by this they meant TWO spears of asparagus and THREE small florets of broccoli. We were flabbergasted at this point. The taste of the food was not even the slightest bit remarkable. The rice was the only great item on the plate, everything else was horribly mediocre for a restaurant that is supposed to be innovative. We felt like perhaps we were being cheated because we opted for the Restaurant Week menu as opposed to spending more money, but, one would think that everything should be delicious regardless. Not the case. Dessert was fine, but only one option. Ice cream, wow. So, about $100 later, we left the restaurant ANGRY. We received the bottle of San Pel. for free and the waitress was very nice and attentive but those were THE ONLY highlights of the night. We were so discouraged at our waste of money and time. If you want good Indian food, stay away from Kiran's. It's mediocre at best. Go to Bombay Brass. for a better meal with true Indian flair. We will not be returning.
Great Restaurant – This is the most upscale Indian restaurant I have been to. Being an Indian myself and a New Yorker, I would say that if you're looking for Indian food with a more modern touch and french influences, this is it. The ambiance is really nice and the menu provides those who are new to Indian cuisine a way to try it with out being overwhelmed, but can also cater to Indians who are looking for more traditional food. The fact that it is more upscale than most Indian restaurants does not mean that the food is any better other Indian restaurants, but it gives those who are looking for it, a pleasant experience. The wait service is excellent and their recommendations were spot on. The manager came to our table to talk to us an couldn't be more pleasant. I've been here twice already and hope visit this place again.

The history of the Jews in South Africa mainly begins with the European settlement in the 19th century. The early patterns of Jewish South African history are almost identical with the history of the Jews in the United States but on a much smaller scale, including the period of early discovery and settlement from the late 15th century to the early 19th century. Jews played a prominent role in the development of the diamond and gold fields, with Alfred Beit, Barney Barnato and others becoming notable Randlords. Many Jews were involved in the anti-apartheid movement, with Joe Slovo, Albie Sachs, Dennis Goldberg, Harry Schwarz and Helen Suzman being among the most notable. Meanwhile, Israel maintained deepening military and diplomatic ties with South Africa between 1967-1990.[3] South African Jewry differ significantly from those in other developing countries in that the majority of South African Jews still remain in South Africa (62% of the original 120,000 still remain), and that a significant number of those that did move abroad went to countries popular among other South African émigrés such as Australia,[4] the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, as well as Israel.
The modern Jewish history of South Africa began, indirectly, some time before the discovery of the Cape of Good Hope, by the participation of certain astronomers and cartographers in the Portuguese discovery of the sea-route to India[citation needed]. There were Jews among the directors of the Dutch East India Company, which for 150 years administered the colony at the Cape of Good Hope. Jewish cartographers in Portugal, members of the wealthy and influential classes, assisted Bartolomeu Dias and Vasco da Gama who first sailed around the Cape of Good Hope in 1488 and 1497. Portugal's baptised Jews were still free until the Portuguese Inquisition was promulgated in 1536.
In 1652, the Dutch began the first permanent European settlement of South Africa under Jan van Riebeeck as a representative of the Dutch East India Company. It has been noted that:
During the seventeenth and the greater part of the 18th century the state religion alone was allowed to be publicly observed; but on 25 July 1804, the Dutch commissioner-general Jacob Abraham de Mist, by a proclamation whose provisions were annulled at the English occupation of 1806 and were not reestablished till 1820, instituted in the colony religious equality for all persons, irrespective of creed.
Jews did not arrive in any numbers at Cape Town before the 1820s. The first congregation in South Africa, known as the Gardens Shul, was founded in Cape Town in November 1841, and the initial service was held in the house of one Benjamin Norden, at the corner of Weltevreden and Hof streets. Benjamin Norden, Simeon Markus, together with a score of others arriving in the early 1830s, were commercial pioneers, especially the Mosenthal brothers—Julius, Adolph (see Aliwal North), and James Mosenthal—who started a major wool industry. By their enterprise in going to Asia and returning with thirty Angora goats in 1856 they became the originators of the mohair industry. Aaron and Daniel de Pass were the first to open up Namaqualand, and for many years (1849–1886) were the largest shipowners in Cape Town, and leaders of the sealing, whaling, and fishing industries. Jews were among the first to take to ostrich-farming and played a role in the early diamond industry.
Jews also played some part in early South African politics. Captain Joshua Norden was shot at the head of his Mounted Burghers in the Xhosa War of 1846; Lieutenant Elias de Pass fought in the Xhosa War of 1849. Julius Mosenthal (1818–1880), brother of the poet S. Mosenthal of Vienna, was a member of the Cape Parliament in the 1950s. Simeon Jacobs, C.M.G. (1832–1883), who was a judge in the Supreme Court of the Cape of Good Hope, as the acting attorney-general of Cape Colony he introduced and carried in 1872 the Cape Colony Responsible Government Bill and the Voluntary Bill (abolishing state aid to the Anglican Church), for both of which bills Saul Solomon, the member for Cape Town, had fought for decades. Saul Solomon (b. St. Helena 25 May 1817; d. 16 October 1892), the leader of the Cape Colony Liberal Party, has been called the "Cape Disraeli." He was invited into the first Responsible Government#Cape Colony, formed by Sir John Molteno, and declined the premiership itself several times. Like Disraeli, too, he early left the ranks of Judaism.
At the same time, the Jews faced substantial anti-Semitism. Though freedom of worship was granted to all residents in 1870, the revised Grondwet of 1894 still debarred Jews and Catholics from military posts, from the positions of president, state secretary, or magistrate, from membership in the First and Second Volksraad ("parliament"), and from superintendencies of natives and mines. These positions were restricted to persons above 30 years of age with permanent property and a longer history of settlement. As a consequence of the fact that Boer republics were only in existence from 1857 to 1902, unfortunately many residents of the Boer republics had limited access to positions in the upper echelons of government. All instruction was to be given in a Christian and Protestant spirit, and Jewish and Catholic teachers and children were to be excluded from state-subsidized schools.[citation needed] Before the Boer War (1899–1902), Jews were often considered uitlanders ("foreigners") and excluded from the mainstream of South African life.
However, a small number of Jews also settled among and identified with the rural white Afrikaans-speaking population; these persons became known as Boerejode (Boer Jews). A measure of intermarriage also occurred and was generally accepted.[6]
The South African gold rush began after 1886, attracting many Jews. The Jewish population of South Africa numbered approximately 4,000 in 1880; by 1914 it had grown to more than 40,000.[7] So many of these Jewish immigrants to South Africa had come from Lithuania, that some referred to the population as a colony of Lithuania. Johannesburg was also occasionally called "Jewburg."[8]
Jews fought on both sides during the Second Boer War (1899–1902). Some of the most notable fights during the three years' Boer war — such as the Gun Hill incident before the Siege of Ladysmith — involved Jewish soldiers like Major Karri Davies. Nearly 2,800 Jews fought on the British side and the London Spectator counted that 125 were killed. (Jewish Encyclopedia)
Around 300 Jews served among the Boers during the Second Boer War[9] and were known as Boerjode: those who had citizenship rights were conscripted along with other burghers ("citizens"), but there were also a number of volunteers. Jews fought under the Boers' Vierkleur ("four coloured") flag in many of the major battles and engagements and during the guerilla phase of the war, and a dozen are known to have died. Around 80 were captured and held in British concentration camps in South Africa. Some were sent as far afield as St. Helena, Bermuda, and Ceylon to where they had been exiled by the British. Some Jews were among the Bittereinders ("Bitter Enders") who fought on long after the Boer cause was clearly lost.[10]
Although the Jews were allowed equal rights after the Boer War, they again became subject to persecution in the days leading up to World War II. In 1930, the Quota Act of 1930 was intended to curtail the entry of Jews into South Africa. The vast majority of Jews immigrating to South Africa came from diaspora communities in Lithuania. The 1937 The Aliens Act, motivated by a sharp increase the previous year in the number of German Jewish refugees coming to South Africa, brought the migration to almost a complete halt. Some Jews were able to enter the country, but many were unable to do so. A total of approximately six-and-a-half thousand Jews came to South Africa from Germany between the years 1933 and 1939.[11] Many Afrikaners (i.e. Boers) felt sympathy for Nazi Germany, and organizations like Louis Weichardt's "Grayshirts" and the pro-Nazi Ossewabrandwag were openly anti-Semitic. During World War I, many Afrikaners, who had little respect for Britain, objected to the use of "Afrikaner women and children from the British concentration camps" in fighting the German territory of South West Africa on behalf of Britain. This had the effect of drumming up pro-German sentiment among a population of Afrikaners. The opposition National Party argued that the Aliens Act was too lenient and advocated a complete ban on Jewish immigration, a halt in the naturalization of Jewish permanent residents of South Africa and the banning of Jews from certain professions.[12] After the war, the situation began to improve, and a large number of South African Jews, generally a fairly Zionist community,[5] made aliyah to Israel. While it is understandable that many South African Jews would feel uncomfortable with formerly pro-Nazi Afrikaners rising to power in 1948, many leading apartheid-era Afrikaner politicians publicly apologized to the South African Jewish community for their earlier anti-semitic actions and assured it of its continued safety in South Africa.
|Part of a series on
|Jews and Judaism
When the Afrikaner-dominated National Party came to power in 1948 it did not adopt an anti-Jewish policy despite its earlier position. In 1953 South Africa's Prime Minister, D. F. Malan, became the first foreign head of government to visit Israel though the trip was a "private visit" rather than an official state visit.[13] This began a long history of cooperation between Israel and South Africa on many levels. The proudly Zionistic South African Jewish community, through such bodies as the South African Zionist Federation and a number of publications, maintained a cordial relationship with the South African government even though it objected to the policies of Apartheid being enacted. South Africa's Jews were permitted to collect huge sums of money to be sent on as official aid to Israel, in spite of strict exchange-control regulations. Per capita, South African Jews were reputedly the most financially supportive Zionists abroad.[14] During the 1980s Harry Schwarz, a prominent Jewish anti-Apartheid politician engaged in private meetings with Israeli Prime Ministers Shimon Peres and Yitzhak Shamir and was assured by them that Jews in South Africa would not become isolated and links between the Jewish community and Israel would be maintained.
main article Israel-South Africa relations
Most African states broke ties after the 1973 Yom Kippur War, and Israel began to take a cordial view of the similarly-isolated regime in Pretoria.[15] Ethan A. Nadelmann has claimed that the relationship developed due to the fact that many African countries broke diplomatic ties with Israel during the 1970s following Israeli occupation of Arab land during the Arab-Israeli wars, causing Israel to deepen relations with other isolated countries.[16]
By the mid 1970s, Israel's relations with South Africa were warm. In 1975, the Israel–South Africa Agreement was signed, and increasing economic co-operation between Israel and South Africa was reported, including the construction of a major new railway in Israel, and the building of a desalination plant in South Africa.[17] In April 1976 South African Prime Minister John Vorster was invited to make a state visit, meeting Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin.[15] [18] Later in 1976, the 5th Conference of Non-Aligned Nations in Colombo, Sri Lanka, adopted a resolution calling for an oil embargo against France and Israel because of their arms sales to South Africa.[17] In 1977, South African Foreign Minister Pik Botha visited Israel to discuss South African issues with Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin and Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan.
Benjamin Beit-Hallahmi wrote in 1988 that the alliance between South Africa and Israel was one of the most underreported news stories of the past four decades and that Israel played a crucial role in the survival of the South African regime.[19] Israel's collaboration with Apartheid South Africa was mentioned and condemned by various international organizations like the UN General assembly (several times since 1974).[20] In 1987 Israel announced that it would be implementing sanctions against South Africa. By the beginning of the 1990s, military and economy ties between the two countries had been lost.
South African Jews can be described as being mostly mildly liberal and overwhelmingly supported opposition parties such as first the United Party, then the Liberal Party, Progressive Party and its successors during the decades of National Party apartheid rule. (See Liberalism in South Africa). The community in general was not aligned with any particular Communist or revolutionary elements, or violent movements though there were prominent South African Jewish socialists and communists such as Joe Slovo, Ruth First, Denis Goldberg and Albie Sachs. The prime example of the more moderate approach is that of the highly-assimilated Harry Oppenheimer (1908–2000) (born Jewish but converted to Anglicanism upon his marriage), the richest man in South Africa and the chairman of the De Beers and Anglo American corporations. He was a supporter of the liberal Progressive Party and its policies, believing that granting more freedom and economic growth to South Africa's Black African majority was good politics and sound economic policy. The banner for this cause was held high by Helen Suzman, as the lone Progressive Party member in South Africa's parliament, representing the voting district of Houghton, home to many wealthy Jewish families at the time.
In 1980, after 77 years of neutrality, South Africa's National Congress of the Jewish Board of Deputies passed a resolution urging "all concerned [people] and, in particular, members of our community to cooperate in securing the immediate amelioration and ultimate removal of all unjust discriminatory laws and practices based on race, creed, or colour." This inspired some Jews to intensify their anti-apartheid activism, but the bulk of the community either emigrated or avoided public conflict with the National Party government.[21]
Harry Schwarz was one of the most prominent anti-apartheid leaders and politicians of the Jewish community. He arrived as a Jewish refugee from Germany in 1934 at the age of 10. An early advocate for non-violent resistance to apartheid, he co-founded the Torch Commando, an ex-soldiers' movement to protest against the disenfranchisement of the coloured people in South Africa. As an advocate, he was on the defense team of the Rivonia Trial and visited Nelson Mandela in prison. Advocating a credible and more aggressive political opposition to the National Party in the 1960s and 1970s, he clashed with the United Party establishment, until finally he signed the Mahlabatini Declaration of Faith with Mangosuthu Buthelezi for a non-racial democratic society in South Africa that led to the realignment of opposition politics in South Africa. A passionate opposition leader, both inside and outside parliament, he forcefully denounced the National Party's racial policies and was recognised as amongst the most effective and forthright campaigners against apartheid. In 1991 Schwarz was appointed as Ambassador to the United States, South Africa's top diplomat and the first Jew and sitting opposition party member to become an ambassador in South African history.
Politician Helen Suzman, represented the Houghton constituency as the Progressive Party's sole member of parliament,[22] and the sole parliamentarian unequivocally opposed to apartheid, from 1961 to 1974. Suzman was noted for her strong public criticism of the governing National Party's policies of apartheid at a time when this was atypical of white South Africans, and found herself even more of an outsider because she was an English-speaking Jewish woman in a parliament dominated by Calvinist Afrikaner men. She stepped down from Parliament in 1989, though continued to campaign against apartheid. She visited Nelson Mandela on numerous occasions while he was in prison, and was present when he signed the new constitution in 1996.
Writer Nadine Gordimer helped edit Mandela's speech in his defence at the Rivonia Trial (in 1991, Gordimer donated her Nobel Prize money to the Congress of South African Writers, which was allied with the African National Congress).
During the Rivonia Trial Dr. Percy Yutar, South Africa's first Jewish attorney-general, who was said to be indifferent towards Apartheid,[23] prosecuted Nelson Mandela while Jewish attorney Arthur Chaskalson was part of Mandela's defense counsel. In that trial, Denis Goldberg, engineer and leader of the Congress of Democrats, was sentenced to life in prison along with Mandela and other ANC leaders.
In 1979, Chaskalson established the Legal Resources Center, an organization dedicated to the pursuit of justice and human rights in South Africa. Chaskalson challenged the implementation of apartheid laws, provided legal services, and trained paralegal personnel to help blacks. When Mandela came to power he appointed Chaskalson as President of the Constitutional Court of South Africa and later as Chief Justice of South Africa.
Many Jewish anti-apartheid activists were the target of state security force violence: Ruth First was assassinated; Albie Sachs lost an eye and an arm. Rowley Arenstein was exiled for thirty-three years. Abstract painter Arthur Goldreich was arrested as a political prisoner in July 1963 but eventually escaped. Joe Slovo, longtime leader of the South African Communist Party, served on the ANC's National Executive Committee, as did Ray Simons and Raymond Suttner. Ronnie Kasrils was head of intelligence for the ANC's military wing. (Adler 2000)
Jews also played a significant role in providing humanitarian assistance for black communities. Ina Perlman founded "Operation Hunger", an organization that reached two million South African blacks. Influenced by skills learned in Israel, the South African Union of Jewish Women (UJW) developed outreach programs in black townships: they focused on teacher training and pre-school development and even sponsored a few black South African teacher visits to Israel. UJW also created a multiracial youth group and engaged in the Women's National Coalition. The group was the first to import black dolls from the United States so that children might have a choice. (Adler, 2000)
Johannesburg's Oxford Synagogue and Cape Town's Temple Israel assisted the black townships by running nurseries, medical clinics and adult education programs, and by providing legal aid for victims of apartheid laws. (Adler 2000)
Many Jews objected to enlistment in the South African Defence Force and the Border War. Johnathon Handler, chairperson of the UCT branch of South African Union of Jewish Students, was one of a group of 15 conscientious objectors to make public their resistance to war in the townships shortly before the End Conscription Campaign was banned.
Despite the over-representation of Jews in the struggle against apartheid, (14 of the 23 indicted whites in the Treason Trail of 1956 were Jews. As were all six of the indicted whites in the Rivonia Trial of 1963), the Jewish establishment and the majority of South African Jews remained focused on Jewish issues. Most individuals were unsupportive of the anti-apartheid cause and communal institutions remained distant from the struggle against racial injustice until relatively late. In 1980, 32 years after the creation of apartheid, the South African Jewish Board of Deputies passed a resolution urging "all concerned, in particular members of our own community, to cooperate in securing the immediate amelioration and ultimate removal of all unjust discriminatory laws and practices based on race, creed or colour". A few rabbis spoke out against apartheid early, but they failed to gain support and it was not until 1985 that the rabbinate as a whole condemned apartheid. (Adler 2000)
Although the Jewish community peaked in the 1970s (at around 120,000[1]), about 70,000 mostly nominally Orthodox, remain in South Africa. Despite low intermarriage rates (around 7%[1]), approximately 1,800 Jews emigrate every year, mainly to Israel, Australia, Canada and the United States. The Jewish community in South Africa is currently the largest in Africa, and, although shrinking due to emigration, it remains one of the most nominally Orthodox communities in the world. The current Chief Rabbi, Dr. Warren Goldstein (2008), has been widely credited for initiating a "Bill of Responsibilities" which the government has incorporated in the national school curriculum. The Chief Rabbi has also pushed for community run projects to combat crime in the country.
The community has become more observant and in Johannesburg, the largest centre of Jewish life, with 66,000 Jews, there is a high number and density of Kosher restaurants and religious centres. In politics, the Jewish community continues to have influence, particularly in leadership roles. Currently, the sole national Jewish newspaper, with a readership of about 40,000, is the South African Jewish Report.[24] In 2008, a Jewish Radio Station, ChaiFM, commenced broadcasting in Johannesburg, and also broadcasting on the internet to the large South African "diaspora".[25] Despite a fall in number, since 2003 the number of South African Jews has stabilised.[1] Furthermore, they are growing evermore religious with over 80% of South African Jews claiming to be Orthodox.[1]
The Lemba or "wa-Remba" are a southern African ethnic group to be found in Zimbabwe and South Africa with some little known branches in Mozambique and Malawi. According to Parfitt they are thought to number 70,000.[26][27] Many of them claim a partial common descent to the Jewish people.[28]
Traditionally, Jewish education in South Africa was conducted by the Cheder or Talmud Torah, while children received secular education at government and private schools. There were, initially, no formal structures in place for Rabbinical education. (Note that although the majority of South Africa's Jews are descendants of Lithuanian Jews who venerated Talmudic scholarship, the community did not establish schools or yeshivot for several decades.)
An important change took place in 1948, when King David School was established as the first full-time dual-curriculum (secular and Jewish) Jewish day school – the high school was established in 1955. Today, King David is amongst the largest Jewish day schools in the world, with thousands of students. King David's equivalent in Cape Town is "Herzlia" (United Herzlia Schools) with Carmel School in Pretoria and Durban (both subsequently renamed), and the Theodore Herzl School in Port Elizabeth (est. 1959). Umhlanga Jewish Day School, was opened in January 2012, to cater for Jewish children in the greater Durban area.[29] In total, nineteen Day Schools, affiliated to the South African Board of Jewish Education, have been established in the main centres.[30] The Jewish day schools regularly place amongst the top in the country in the national "Matric" examinations.[31][32]
The first religious day school, the Yeshiva College of South Africa, was established in the mid-1950s, drawing primarily on the popularity of the Bnei Akiva Religious Zionist youth movement. As an institution with hundreds of pupils, Yeshivah College is today the largest religious school in the country. Other educational institutions within this ideology include the Kollel (Bet Mordechai) and Midrasha (Emunah) of Mizrachi, Johannesburg, and the Yeshiva of Cape Town, a Torah MiTzion Kollel.
In parallel to the establishment of Yeshiva College, and drawing on the same momentum,[33] several smaller yeshivot were opened, starting in the 1960s. The Yeshivah Gedolah of Johannesburg,[34] established in 1973, is the best known of these, having trained dozens of South African Rabbis, including Chief Rabbi Dr. Warren Goldstein. The Yeshiva follows the "Telshe" educational model, although accommodates students from across the spectrum of Hashkafa (Hebrew: worldview, outlook, beliefs within orthodox Judaism).
This era also saw the start of a large network of Chabad-Lubavitch activities and institutions. There is today a Lubavitch Yeshiva in Johannesburg (Lubavitch Yeshiva Gedolah of Johannesburg) serving the Chabad community, a Chabad Semicha programme in Pretoria (having ordained 98 Rabbis since its establishment in 2001[35][36]), and Lubavitch Day schools in Johannesburg (the Torah Academy school) and Cape Town. Johannesburg boasts ten Chabad Houses, Cape Town two and Kwazulu-Natal one- all of which offer a variety of Torah classes, adult education programmes and informal children's educational programmes.
The 1980s saw the establishment of a Haredi kollel, Yad Shaul, as well as the growth of a large baal teshuva ("returnees" [to observant Judaism]) movement – this was supported by the Israel-based organizations Ohr Somayach and Aish HaTorah which established active branches in South Africa; Arachim also has an active presence. Ohr Somayach, South Africa operates a full-time Yeshiva in Johannesburg – with its Bet Midrash established in 1990, and its Kollel (Toras Chaim) in 1996 – as well as a Midrasha (Ma'ayan Bina); it also runs a Bet Midrash in Cape Town. There are several Haredi boy's schools in Johannesburg - each associated with one of the yeshivot - as well as a Beis Yaakov girls' school.
The Progressive Movement maintains a network of supplementary Hebrew and Religious classes at its temples. These schools are all affiliated to the SA Union for Progressive Judaism.
Conservative / Masorti's presence in South Africa is limited to one synagogue in Johannesburg.[37]
Limmud was introduced to the country in 2007. The Limmud South Africa conferences are held in August/September each year, with over 1000 attending. South Africa's Orthodox rabbis do not participate, taking their lead from the UK Orthodox Rabbinate; see Limmud: Relationships with Centrist Orthodoxy in Britain.

The diversity represented at Indian Summer Festival's Education Day is deep and palpable - like the reverberating beats of ancient community drums. We welcome you to take part in this very special day reserved solely for teachers and students interested in building their knowledge of Wisconsin tribes and cultural traditions, making curriculum connections and feasting on traditional foods.
Education Day has been a foundational building block of Indian Summer cured by the suns of twenty-seven years since the festival mounted its inaugural powwow. An accomplishment indeed, but compared to the time Indigenous people have inhabited the Western Great Lakes region it is but a breath. The land and its resources have provided life's breath for our people and from it emerged lifeways that are still alive today.
Teachers and students will be able to experience traditional Wisconsin Indian villages painstakingly mounted on the Summerfest grounds, a powwow demonstration with both traditional and competition powwow dancers, a child's sized frybread taco food sampler at a reduced rate, traditional activities like the game of lacrosse (now widely taken up by non-Indian players and institutions across North America) and the production of cultural material with Wisconsin tribal artists and crafts(wo)men.
But for a more rigorous study of Great Lakes people, educators from Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, UW-Extension and the Northern Great Lakes Visitor Center, and the Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife will be graciously presenting a morning and afternoon mini-workshop with online teaching materials at the ready. Part of this curriculum will include a presentation on the G'WOW (Gikinoo'wizhiwe Onji Waaban) - Changing Climate, Changing Culture program. This nationally recognized teaching model is based on an investigation of the impacts of climate change on key plant and animal species still heavily relied upon by Indigenous peoples.
This workshop platform will be a test for the viability of future Education Day programming that would allow Wisconsin educators to more readily meet the guidelines of Act 31; a requirement that applies to individuals who in addition to seeking licensure or certification in the state of Wisconsin, must have some instruction in American Indian history, culture and sovereignty.
CLICK HERE for the 2013 INDIAN SUMMER EDUCATION DAY SCHEDULE
CLICK HERE for the 2013 Education Day Registration form.
Craft demonstrations, cultural performances, villages with authentic recreations of dwellings, lacrosse demonstrations, and a fine arts area are among the attractions planned for students. The day also includes a mini pow wow. American Indian artwork, crafts, and food are available for purchase. Additionally, for a nominal fee, children can participate in various hands-on craft activities.
Registration Information
For planning purposes, early registration is requested by Friday, August 23, 2013. The cost for education day is $6.00 per ticket for both students and adults . While payment by August 24 expedites entry onto the grounds, payment is also accepted at the Indian Summer office through August 31 (we will be located on the festival grounds beginning Tuesday, September 3, 2013) or upon arrival on the grounds on September 7.

Praise for Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops
"A great nostalgia-inducing gift for fellow members of Generation X."
—Richmond (VA) Times-Dispatch

"Gael Fashingbauer Cooper and Brian Bellmont are two people who obviously lived through and loved the '70s and '80s. They're funny and sharp, and their passion for pop jumps off the page."
