SUMMARY:4/3 TALK | Sarah Zaides Rosen on "Tevye's Ottoman Daughter"
DESCRIPTION:Register Now >\n\nIn this talk\, historian and Stroum Center for Jewish Studies’ Associate Director Sarah Zaides Rosen will trace the story of 19th- and 20th-century Russian Jews who left the Pale of Settlement\, crossed the Black Sea and arrived in Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul)\, all in the twilight years of the Russian and Ottoman Empires. \nThis talk will introduce listeners not only to a fascinating Jewish community where Sephardic Jews were the majority (and Ashkenazi Jews the minority)\, but also to the ways in which Sephardic Jews responded to a refugee crisis\, and in turn how they contended with contemporary political ideas\, including Zionism. \nThe audience will also learn about hopeful Jews who created agricultural colonies in the western Aegean region of Turkey (such as Or Yehuda)\, funded by philanthropist Baron Maurice de Hirsch and aided by the nascent agricultural school Mikveh Israel. There\, in these early “kibbutz”-like colonies\, Russian and Ashkenazi Jews would either await Ottoman citizenship\, which would allow them to move on to the Land of Israel\, or slip through the borders between what is now Turkey\, Syria\, and Israel. \nCentered on the book “Tevye’s Ottoman Daughter: Ashkenazi and Sephardi Jews at the End of Empire“\, Sarah will discuss Jewish identity in the late Ottoman world\, and the ways in which Zionism was being debated and interpreted in the late Ottoman context. \nRegister Now >\n\nPresented by the Stroum Center for Jewish Studies. \nCosponsored by the Departments of History and Middle Eastern Languages and Cultures\, the Ellison Center for Russian\, East European\, and Central Asian Studies\, and the Middle East Center. \nAbout the speaker\n\n\n Sarah Zaides Rosen received her Ph.D. from the Department of History at the University of Washington in 2017 and her B.A. from the University of California San Diego. She was a fellow at the Woodrow Wilson Foundation and has held the Titus Ellison Fellowship and multiple Joff Hanauer Fellowships at the University of Washington. Her research has been supported by the Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture\, Brandeis University\, and the Vidal Sassoon Center for the Study of Antisemitism. Zaides Rosen is currently Associate Director of the Stroum Center for Jewish Studies at the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies at the University of Washington. \nIn conversation with Professors Canan Bolel (MELC) and Devin E.

SUMMARY:4/19 | FREE FOOD! A "Grub n' gab" with Stroum Center leadership
DESCRIPTION:Register Now >\n \nCurious about Jewish Studies? Anytime from 11 AM — 1 PM on Wednesday\, April 19\, stop by the Microsoft Cafe on campus to learn more about the Stroum Center from our own leaders: Director Mika Ahuvia\,  and Interim Associate Director Brendan Goldman\, who also serves as Program Manager. Plus\, free food and drinks will be provided! This casual setting is a great way to: \n• Explore the Stroum Center programs you may be curious about \n• Get your questions answered on-the-spot \n• Meet other undergraduate students with common interests or backgrounds \n• Fuel up (coffee\, please!) while talking with an engaging duo \n• Get to know Mika and Brendan on a more personal level \nSo if you think you might come by\, feel free to register here! Mika and Brendan look forward to meeting with students\, both current and new. \nAbout the leaders\nMika Ahuvia researches the formative history of Jewish and Christian communities in the ancient Mediterranean world. Specializing in Late Antique Jewish history\, she works with rabbinic sources\, liturgical poetry\, magical texts\, early mystical literature\, and archaeological evidence. \nHer  book\, “On My Right Michael\, On My Left Gabriel: Angels in Ancient Jewish Culture\,” investigates conceptions of angels in foundational Jewish texts and ritual sources\, and uncovers how angels made their way into the practices and worldview of ancient Jews. As the Herbert L. and Lucia S. Pruzan Chair in Jewish Studies\, Ahuvia teaches courses in Jewish Studies\, comparative religion\, and global studies in the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies. She is also the Director of the Stroum Center for Jewish Studies. \n\nBrendan Goldman came to the Stroum Center from Princeton University\, where he was a postdoctoral research fellow in the Program in Judaic Studies\, in addition to coordinating the Comparative Diplomatics Workshop and teaching at Northern State Prison in Newark\, New Jersey. He received his Ph.D. in history from The Johns Hopkins University in 2018\, and now serves as the Stroum Center’s Interim Associate Director and Program Manager. \nHis first book\, “Camps of the Uncircumcised: The Cairo Geniza and Jewish Life in the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem\,” is under contract with University of Pennsylvania Press and will be published in 2021. His second book project\, tentatively titled “A Disciplinary Society: Medieval Prisons through Jewish Eyes\, 1000-1300\,” examines how documents found in the Cairo Geniza\, a synagogue storehouse preserving more than 40\,000 medieval writings\, can illuminate the ways in which state violence shaped the lives of everyday people during the Middle Ages. \nThe University of Washington is committed to providing access and accommodation in its services\, programs\, and activities.
