  15. "[...] Democritus, who laughs at the world, and Heraclitus, who weeps over it.

    The story of the #Jews tends to be told in the Heraclitan mode.

    There is a name for this tendency: it is the ‘lachrymose conception of #Jewish #history’. This was the coinage of the #historian #SaloBaron, and intended in a pejorative way: #Baron spent his career criticising an earlier generation of #scholars for painting such a gloomy picture of #Jewishhistory. The #FrenchRevolution, #HeinrichGraetz had said, was a ‘judgement which in one day atoned for the sins of a thousand years’; the #emancipation of the Jews that followed in its wake marked the ‘dawn after their long slavery among the nations of #Europe’. Baron’s 1928 essay, ‘Ghetto and Emancipation’, called for a ‘break with the lachrymose theory of pre-Revolutionary woe, and to adopt a view more in accord with historic truth’. The historic truth, in his view, was that emancipation wasn’t all good, and the ghetto wasn’t all bad."

  20. 🖤 For Black History Month, join us in celebrating the first Black classical music composer in France: Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges.

    Inspired by the incredible true story of Bologne in 18th century France, Disney's Chevalier takes place during the lead up to the French Revolution. The film sheds light on the realities of France at this time and can ignite student interest in learning more about the French Revolution as well as this remarkable historical figure.

    Our free Chevalier Discussion Guide also explores Bologne's legacy; Beginnings, Opportunity, and Excellence; and Race and Identity. For grades 11-12, adult/higher ed.

    🔔 This is also a great film for Music in Our Schools Month in March!
