Shakespeare and the Jews by James Shapiro. Columbia University Press 1996. From the book flap: “Drawing on Elizabethan diaries, travel narratives, confessions of faith, sermons, political tracts, and parliamentary debates, Shakespeare and the Jews explores questions about Jews that preoccupied Shakespeare’s England: Were the Jews still a nation in their diaspora? Was it possible to be both English and Jewish? Were Jewish converts to Christianity ultimately insincere? Did the Jews constitute a wholly different race? And was it true that Jews secretly abducted, circumcised, and ritually murdered unsuspecting Chris-tians?” #books #history #literature #shakespeare #jewish #jewishbooks #jewishhistory #jewishengland #england #judaica #hebrew #yiddish #plays #library #homelibrary #igreads #instabooks #diaspera #merchantofvenice #shakespareplay #historybooks #jewishliterature #ukjewish #read #bookshelf #columbiauniversitypress #jamesshapiro #shakespeareandthejews

Two weeks ago on the 20th October, it was Nitzan's 7th Birthday. As we couldn't celebrate this day how we usually do with a family camping trip due to the current situation and Itai's miluim commitments, I found myself searching for a way to mark her day against the backdrop of the very dark reality we find ourselves living in. As always, my angel guided me to the answer when I suddenly received a message that the third print of my colouring-in book and journal of Israel that I produced in her honour was ready for collection. This then got me thinking ... and after a few hours the idea of 'Colour4Peace' was born. Over the last two weeks I have been working on a digital educational colouring-in package for kindergartens, schools and community institutions in the hope to bring and spread light, love and colour during these very difficult and traumatic days for the citizens of Israel and Jewish people around the world. The images showcase many of the affected regions in the current conflict including the Western Negev which borders Gaza, Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and the Northern Region. Each image has a short explanation about the site or place. Next week I will be launching my new website. The colouring-in book and journal of Israel as well as the 'Colour4Peace' digital file will be available for purchase. 10% of every sale will be donated to those who have been evacuated to the Central Arava from the Gaza Border Region. Wishing everyone a Shabbat of Shalom and while I can't welcome you to Israel at the moment, I look forward to bringing our homeland to you through creative expression and colour next week. #israel #israelinstagram #iloveisrael #istandwithisrael #colour #colouringinspiration #colour4peace #jewish #israeloftheday #jewishlife #jewishchangemakers #jewishschool #jewishculture #israelipride #israeligifts #israelibusiness #jewishaustralia #jewishamericans #jewishcanada #jewishengland #israelimoments #olahchadasha #aravaproud #jewishagency #jewishfederation #jewishfederationsofnorthamerica #jewishcommunity #colouryourworldisrael

While not all the buildings in Lincoln’s old town date back to Medieval times (there are many Georgian, Victorian & Edwardian examples), there are several houses which date back as far as the 11th or 12th centuries, & several 16th century Tudor & 17th century Jacobean half timbered houses. One such example is the Jew's House (Photo 7), dating from the later 12th century, one of the earliest extant town houses in England. It is situated on Steep Hill in Lincoln, immediately below Jew's Court (Photo 8; itself dating back to 1170). The Jew’s house has traditionally been associated with the thriving Jewish community previously present in Medieval Lincoln. Sadly, antisemitic hysteria was stoked by a notorious 1255 blood libel alleging the murder that a child, called Little Saint Hugh of Lincoln, was ritually killed by Jews. Despite these and numerous other racially & religiously motivated lies, in 1290, the entire Jewish community was expelled from England by Edward I, and the Jew's House is said to have been seized from a Jewish owner. The building has remained continuously occupied to the present day. Since about 1973 it has been used as a restaurant (currently a superb Michelin Star establishment); before that it was an antiques shop. #lincoln #lincolnshire #jewshouserestaurant #jewshouse #jewshouselincoln #jewscourtlincoln #jewscourt #jewishhistory #jewishengland #englishheritage #englishhistory #medievalengland #middleages #urbanphotography #architecturephotography #travelphotography #englisharchitecture #medievalarchitecture #england #uk

When 17th century Portuguese explorer Antonio de Montezinos traversed the depths of northern Ecuador it came as a shock to discover that his guides and helpers were not exactly the Indigenous South Americans he had thought - just as he was not really the Christian explorer he was presenting. Find out more about this extraordinary story of hidden Jews and lost Israelites that stirred messianic hopes in Europe in episode 44 of the podcast, the final part of David's series 'Communities in Search of Meaning: Jewish History of the 17th Century.'

A lifetime in Jerusalem. Autobiography of Edwin Samuel, son of Herbert Samuel the high commissioner of Palestine. Published by Vallentine, Mitchell & Co, London 1970. Edwin was educated in England and then worked in the mandatory government in Palestine after WW I. He fell in love with Israel and pretty much remained there until his death in 1978. Side note, the Samuels were Jewish, albeit not religious. This is an easy and fun read (he has a good sense of humor). It is full of interesting facts about the early days of Palestine and the Jews and Arabs that Edwin met and worked with. #israel #hebrew #books #autobiography #edwinsamuel #herbertsamuel #herbertsamuelcenter #jerusalem #homelibrary #bookstagram #bookshelf #lifetimeinjerusalem #jewishhistory #history #bibliophile #judica #1970s #instabook #bookcollection #igreads #oldbooks #bookworm #jews #jewish #jewishbiography #abelard #vallentinemmitchell #israelihistory #samuel #jewishengland
