DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Secular and Religious Works of Penina Moise: With Brief Sketch of Her Life This little volume is compiled by the undersigned members of the Charleston Section, of the Council of Jewish Women, who were personally acquainted with the beloved and revered authoress, either as relatives, pupils, or children of dear friends. It has been a work of love, and though containing but few of her prose writings, and not all of her poems, it is as complete as was possible, considering lapse of time, condition of manuscripts, and the difficulty of thorough research. They were composed between 1820 and 1880 and are published in the order in which they were written, or as nearly so as can be determined. Much assistance has been found through the old files of The Charleston Courier. The publication has been a voluntary tribute from the Section to one of the three Jewish women whose lives and works fitted them for positions of distinction in the world. Rebecca Gratz, Emma Lazarus and Penina Moise represent much in Jewish womanhood. The two first had beauty, wealth and social prestige; the last had the social position by birth but owing to poverty from childhood, and ill health, followed by years of blindness, she lived the life of a martyr. Not withstanding this, she became through her character and mind, the nucleus of a coterie of refined and cultivated people scarcely credible under the circumstances. She was a poetess of the heart and soul. No claim is laid that the literature of the world will be augmented by this little book. Somewhere among her poems, will be found something to fit almost any human emotion. Nowhere will be found anything but Faith, Submission, Affection, Cheerfulness and a passionate love for nature and her works. Can any more be asked? Penina Moise left behind her, the incense of a purely religious life. This volume is a tribute to her memory.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this comprehensive and insightful reinterpretation of antebellum culture, Anne C. Rose analyzes the major shifts in intellectual life that occurred between 1830 and 1860 while exploring three sets of concepts that provided common languages-Christianity, democracy, capitalism. Whereas many interpretations of American culture in this period have emphasized a single theme or have been preoccupied with the ensuing Civil War, Rose considers sharply divergent tendencies in religion and politics and a wide range of reformers, authors, and other public figures.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKJews first arrived in the New World in 1654, seeking religious freedom. Since the beginning of American nationhood, Jewish volunteers and conscripts fought in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, on both sides of the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, in both World Wars, and in the Korean, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Over the years, the American military learned to integrate its Jewish servicemen and women by providing Jewish military chaplains, kosher food, religious services, and placing the Star of David on the graves of fallen Jewish soldiers. The end of conscription and the establishment of the All-Volunteer Force in 1973 offered other paths to serve our country. American Jews have contributed with distinction in the arts and sciences, academia, entertainment, government, and in building the economy. For Jews, America is the Goldene Medina—the Golden Country.
