Curated by Enrico Fink, Shirat Hayam: The Song of the Sea (Centro Primo Levi, 2023) inaugurates the Erna Finci Viterbi Chàzanut Roundtable, a workshop and program series on Italian Jewish music and liturgy established by Centro Primo Levi in memory of a dear friend and board member whose love for tradition and dedication to learning have profoundly contributed to shape the center's principles. This project aims at facilitating new recordings of Italian and Mediterranean cantorial music and circulating the existing ones. Publications, recordings and essays collected for this program are available through the Online Thesaurus of Italian Jewish Music (www.jewishitalianmusic.org) designed to provide tools to those interested in learning, practicing or simply enjoying this art, including scholars, musicians, cantors and bar/bat-mitzvà students wishing to include some of this beautiful music in their liturgical repertoire. The Thesaurus was created by Centro Leo Levi in collaboration with Centro Primo Levi, and the generous contribution of the Viterbi family of San Diego. It is being developed in collaboration with the Jewish Music Research Center of the University of Jerusalem and in partnership with the National Library of Israel, CDEC, and the Fondazione Beni Culturali Ebraici Italiani. Sharing and participating were among Erna's most cherished values and she regarded them as an indispensable foundation of human relations and endeavors. For centuries, partaking in the communal prayer through the knowledge of its musical canons and variations has been an essential component of Jewish life. The repertoires that flourished in small communities throughout the Mediterranean reflect trade, travels and exchanges and resulted in a tapestry of sounds that, still preserved within local communities, can become an inspiration outside of their native environment.

Dr. Francesco Spagnolo, Curator of The Magnes Collection and Professor of Music and Jewish Studies at UC Berkeley, discusses the ways in which "Lilith," with its combination of memoiristic storytelling, sharply drawn characters, and mythic resonances, speaks not only to the work Levi created throughout his career but to Italian Jewish history and beyond.

Prof. Nancy Harrowitz, the Director of the Elie Wiesel Center for Jewish Studies at Boston University, joins Cantor Eyal Bitton to discuss the pressing issues of antisemitism on campus, exploring the steps taken to ensure student safety and how to evaluate schools for potential concerns. We also examine whether comparisons to pre-War Germany are alarmist or warranted, and discuss the effectiveness of Holocaust education in combating antisemitism in light of the events of October 7. We reflect on what October 7 has taught us about Jewish identity in America and consider new approaches to teaching the Holocaust in our current environment.Nancy Harrowitz is the Director of the Elie Wiesel Center for Jewish Studies at Boston University, as well as the director of a new program in Holocaust, Genocide and Human Rights Studies. She has written on the confluence of antisemitism and misogyny in the nineteenth century, as well as on Italian Jewish authors such as Giorgio Bassani, Primo Levi, and Carlo Levi. Her most recent book is "Primo Levi and the Identity of a Survivor." She served as Chair of the Working Group on Antisemitism and anti-Israeli Harassment at Boston University this past semester. **The views expressed here do not necessarily reflect those of Eyal Bitton or Congregation Neveh Shalom.

Since then, she has been spreading the word about the marvels of Italian Jewish food in Italy and abroad, teaching the recipes of the cuisine to a growing number of people in cooking schools, synagogues, and community centers, among other institutions. Her work has been featured in numerous news outlets in Italy and abroad, including the Washington Post, Cosmopolitan, Elle à Table, Saveur, and Tablet.

This week, two conversations with Martin Amis, one of England's most engaged and provocative writers. In 2014, Amis spoke with Eleanor Wachtel about his novel The Zone of Interest, which focuses on the Holocaust from a different angle. Its screen adaptation is nominated for five Oscars, including Best Picture. Followed by a conversation from 2019 about the Italian Jewish chemist, Holocaust survivor and writer, Primo Levi — whose work greatly inspired Amis's writing — featuring Levi's biographer Ian Thomson. Please note: this episode contains difficult subject matter and discussion of suicide.

In the 1850s, when a young Italian Jewish boy named Edgardo Mortara fell ill, his family's Christian maid had secretly baptized him in hopes that he would be restored to health, or that if he died, his soul would be saved. This meant that when Edgardo survived and his baptism was revealed, the church saw him as a Christian child, not a Jewish one—and it was forbidden by Canon law for a Christian child to be raised by Jewish parents. So Edgardo, then six years old, was removed from his family against their wishes by the pope, and brought to Rome where he was instructed in the Catholic faith and eventually became a priest. This is the background to a new work of short fiction, “The Story of My Family,” written by the great American Jewish writer Cynthia Ozick and published in the March 2024 issue of Commentary. In it, Ozick retells the kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara as it is remembered by Edgardo's nephew's daughter who, by the time of the story, has moved to America. From there, she reflects on the way that Edgardo's life and priesthood haunted his nephew, that is, her own father. To discuss her new story, Ozick joins Mosaic's editor and podcast host Jonathan Silver this week. Together, the two investigate the meaning of a tale about a Jew who becomes a tormentor of the Jews, and how such theological disturbances can rattle future generations. Musical selections in this podcast are drawn from the Quintet for Clarinet and Strings, op. 31a, composed by Paul Ben-Haim and performed by the ARC Ensemble.

Then, on the rest of the menu, Los Angeles County agreed to pay $5 million to the founder and CEO of a software company who was accused of stealing data on county poll workers in a case pushed by conspiracy theorists and election deniers; an Oregon jury awarded $85 million to nine victims of wildfires that ravaged the state in 2020; and, another lawsuit has been filed against a small-town in Mississippi by local Black residents claiming cops engaged in systemic, Jim Crow-like racial discrimination.After the break, we move to the Chef's Table where France fined Amazon $35 million for ‘excessively intrusive' monitoring of its warehouse staff; and, an Italian Jewish leader slammed the use of a citation of Holocaust survivor Primo Levi by a group planning an anti-Israel protest on International Holocaust Remembrance Day.All that and more, on West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy with Chef de Cuisine Justice Putnam.Bon Appétit!The Netroots Radio Live Player​Keep Your Resistance Radio Beaming 24/7/365!"To those of us who believe that all of life is sacred every crumb of bread and sip of wine is a Eucharist, a remembrance, a call to awareness of holiness right where we are.

Episode 54.Since his childhood in Los Angeles, Daniel has lived in various parts of the U.S. as well as in Israel, Italy, and Germany. In each place, Daniel has enriched his Jewish practice by familiarizing himself with the local language and traditions, including trope (the melodies used to chant the Torah and other parts of the Bible in synagogue services). Another expression of his curiosity about histories and cultures is through writing liturgical texts and prayers. Daniel also taps into his lifelong fascination with the weather in order to get to know, and respond to, a place. For instance, upon moving to Arizona, he found a connection between that desert climate and Israel, inspiring him to write a new prayer for the Southwest's summer rainy season, which he linked directly to a Torah portion read each year in June or July. In these and other ways, different aspects of his identity – including being an Ashkenazi Jew and American – reinforce one another. Highlights:- For Daniel, Jewish identity is grounded through food, sounds, texts, and melodies, not a particular denomination.- Daniel values the use of different languages and melodies in synagogue services.- He writes liturgy and enjoys exploring new elements of holidays and other aspects of Jewish tradition.- Living in various countries has facilitated exposure to different forms of Jewish practice.- Learning about the weather in a new home prompted the composition of new Jewish liturgy, such as Daniel's prayer for the Southwest Monsoon after moving to Arizona.- Exposure to different Jewish narratives in Berlin expanded Daniel's knowledge of German-Jewish history beyond the Holocaust.Social Media links for Daniel:   Shofarot – https://ritualwell.org/ritual/shofarot-tripartite-proposalAmerican Kaddish – https://www.tikkun.org/tikkundaily/2018/11/02/an-american-kaddish/“New Simanim for a New Year (5781) – https://ritualwell.org/ritual/new-simanim-new-year-5781/Monsoon prayer – https://ritualwell.org/ritual/tefillat-ha-monsoon-prayer-southwest-monsoon“Praying for the Monsoon: An Arizona Liturgical Adventure” – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lLGR-TBgSIHomage to the Italian Jewish tradition (and Purim) – https://youtu.be/-njuXO2sqsoSocial Media links for Méli:Talking with God Project – https://www.talkingwithgodproject.orgLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/melisolomon/Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066435622271Transcript:  https://www.buzzsprout.com/1851013/episodes/14024564Follow the podcast!The Living Our Beliefs podcast offers a place to learn about other religions and faith practices.

In Living under the Evil Pope (Brill, 2019), Martina Mampieri presents the Hebrew Chronicle of Pope Paul IV, written in the second half of the sixteenth century by the Italian Jewish moneylender Benjamin Neḥemiah ben Elnathan (alias Guglielmo di Diodato) from Civitanova Marche. The text remained in manuscript for about four centuries until the Galician scholar Isaiah Sonne (1887-1960) published a Hebrew annotated edition of the chronicle in the 1930s. This remarkable source offers an account of the events of the Papal States during Paul IV's pontificate (1555-59). Making use of broad archival materials, Martina Mampieri reflects on the nature of this work, its historical background, and contents, providing a revised edition of the Hebrew text as well as the first unabridged English translation and commentary. Martina Mampieri has been granted a special mention of excellence in the Alberigo Award 2021 by the European Academy of Religion and Fondazione per le Scienze Religiose.

I'm a businesswoman with old-fashioned values:  loyalty, tenacity, and a burning desire to be successful. - Cindy Stumpo Cindy Stumpo has been paving the way for women in construction for decades. At only 23 and just days away from giving birth to her daughter Samantha, Cindy was the only woman in the room when she sat for hours to take her general contractor's exam and would sell her first million-dollar home at 24.  In an industry dominated by men, Cindy is a role model for women in the trades and has built a multi-million-dollar luxury home construction business based on her “grindit out” motto.  www.cstumpodevelopment.com Her opulent floor plans coupled with attention to detail caught the attention of executives at HGTV and Cindy quickly became the star of the popular series Tough As Nails.  In this interview, her unstoppable personality is on full display with tough love for anyone listening. Say's Cindy: “You're not a loser as long as you keep picking yourself up. You're a loser the day you don't pick yourself up. That's the day you quit on you.”  Born and raised on the Northshore of Boston as a child and then as a teenager in upscale Newton in a loving Italian-Jewish family, Cindy looked to her father for guidance when she wasn't sure what to do with her life.  His response guides her to this day:  “Everybody's got their talents and you've got yours.  When you find something you love to do, there's not going to be anybody who is better at it than you.”  An advocate for speaking openly about mental illness, Cindy has dealt with anxiety and panic attacks for 26 years, sharing her story in the hopes of inspiring others. The host of the radio show Tough as Nails with Sam, Cindy is proud of her son Chad and delighted to see her daughter follow in her footsteps as a second-generation general contractor and founder of Newbrook Realty Group. Cindy Stumpo is a trailblazer with her boots on the ground every day.   “Obstacles?  I'm an excavator, says Cindy.  I just keep on pushing that rock up the mountain. “ #construction #luxuryhomes #determination #perseverance

Fascism Impacting Societal Minority Groups. The hosts for this show are Jay Fidell and George Casen. An Italian Jewish family is living on their urban estate that adjoins the rural part of their city. They have been totally integrated into the economic and social fabric of their city, Ferrara. As the movement of Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini progresses, their young adults are restricted from participating in various normal activities. Barred from participating in tennis games, they invite their friends to play on the tennis court within their property. Scenes progress between these young adults, their friends and family members. The freedoms they were once accustomed to are gradually taken away from this family and other Jewish families. Their young son, Alberto, dies from a fever. The movie ends with every member of the family taken away by the authorities to be sent to concentration camps. The discussion focuses on how prominent members of a society can be made non-persons and lose their existence overnight in a Fascist administration.

In this show we welcome back Édouard Miailhe, proprietor of Château Siran in the Margaux appellation of the Médoc (he was on Episode 391, as part of our Médoc series, discussing his role as the president of the Margaux appellation and a small bit about the Château). He joins to talk about many things that we didn't cover in the first show, and the exciting things happening now, including the fact that Château Siran's 2018 vintage was named the #1 wine of 2021 by Wine Enthusiast Magazine! Édouard Miailhe, owner of Château Siran, photo by Wine For Normal People After meeting Édouard in person, tasting the wines, and seeing what is happening at Siran, I agree that magazine made the right decision. Siran has some of the most vibrant energy in Bordeaux and some of the best wines. And Édouard is really just getting started.   Château Siran In addition to this, the show covers something we did not at all address in the first show: the role of the Miailhe family as discussed in the book “Wine and War” by Donald and Petie Kladstrup. The book was written two decades ago but is still a fantastic read. In our first conversation, Édouard never mentioned that his family's bravery, sacrifice, and dedication to wine and the essence of being a Frenchman during the war makes them some of the bravest, most empathetic, clever, and principled families in the wine world.   Here are some of the things we discuss in the show: Édouard chronicles his family history in the Médoc, and how they came to manage Château Siran through family ties in 1888, with wine broker Fréderic Miailhe.     We talk about how his great grandfather Édouard Miailhe and great uncle, Louis Miailhe, saved many prestigious Left Bank properties from bankruptcy and ruin -Pichon Lalande, Coufran, Dauzac, and part of Château Palmer in the early 1900s through investments that others were unwilling to make. Château Siran I make Édouard discuss his family story in World War II. We discuss weinführers, the invasive and destructive nature of the German troops in Bordeaux, and how his family saved the lives of two Italian Jewish families by sheltering them at Château Palmer, until they were able to get papers to smuggle them out of the country. We discuss how the continued acts of patriotism through investment and saving French wine properties in Bordeaux led to the signed picture of Winston Churchill that is at Château Siran.   Édouard discusses his aunt, May-Eliane Miailhe de Lencquesaing, who played a role in helping keep the Jewish family alive, became an icon in Bordeaux wine, and later moved to South Africa and started her own brand. Édouard and I discuss his view on women in wine and his family's unflagging support of women through the decades. Marjolaine Defrance, Édouard Miailhe, Charlotte (hospitality manager)   Édouard talks about how the right investments in the vineyard and winery, and the right enologist (a very young, talented, Marjolaine Defrance) led to Château Siran being the number one wine in the world according to Wine Enthusiast Magazine.   Siran's 160th anniversary bottle   Édouard talks about the revival of original art on the labels of Château Siran. His parents began the tradition of picking a theme for the label that reflected the events of that particular year. The bottles were pieces of art, but also were easily recognizable because of the moment in time they represented. Édouard has revived the tradition for the 2020 vintage, with Frederica Matta, the French and Chilean artist representing the difficult year of isolation in Covid, but the uplifting part of reconnecting with nature, and being grateful for its sights and smells. Revival of the artist label with the 2020 vintage. Art by Frederica Matta, photo courtesy of Ch. Siran   We end by discussing some of Édouard's worries about climate change but also about his hopefulness about the ever-improving quality of Margaux wines and how the appellation seems to be working together better than ever before, a great thing for them and for those of us who drink their wines.   My opinion: Château Siran is a very unique and delicious bottle of wine and extremely well-priced for what it delivers. The addition of Petit Verdot in the wine makes it unlike other wines you may have tasted and it is well worth it to buy it, hold it and taste the beauty in the bottle!! _______________________________________________________________ Thanks to our sponsors this week: Wine Spies uncovers incredible wines at unreal prices - on every type of wine in a variety of price points.

Two years later he joined friends in northern Italy in an attempt to connect with a resistance movement, but he was captured and sent to Auschwitz. While there, Levi worked as a slave labourer for an I.G. Farbenindustrie synthetic-rubber factory. Upon the liberation of Auschwitz by the Soviets in 1945, Levi returned to Turin, where in 1961 he became the general manager of a factory producing paints, enamels, and synthetic resins; the association was to last some 30 years.Levi's first book, Se questo è un uomo (1947; If This Is a Man, or Survival in Auschwitz), demonstrated extraordinary qualities of humanity and detachment in its analysis of the atrocities he had witnessed. His later autobiographical works, La tregua (1963; The Truce, or The Reawakening) and I sommersi e i salvati (1986; TheDrowned and the Saved), are further reflections on his wartime experiences. Il sistema periodico (1975; The Periodic Table) is a collection of 21 meditations, each named for a chemical element, on the analogies between the physical, chemical, and moral spheres; of all of Levi's works, it is probably his greatest critical and popular success. He also wrote poetry, novels, and short stories. A court in Turin ruled his death in 1987 a suicide, a verdict broadly accepted but debated by some. The Complete Works of Primo Levi (2015) contains English translations of his entire oeuvre, including pieces never previously available to Anglophone readers.From https://www.britannica.com/biography/Primo-Levi. For more information about Primo Levi:Previously on The Quarantine Tapes:Edward Hirsch about Levi, at 11:05: https://quarantine-tapes.simplecast.com/episodes/the-quarantine-tapes-173-edward-hirschIf this Is a Man: https://www.amazon.com/This-Man-Truce-Primo-Levi/dp/0349100136“The Art of Witness”: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/09/28/the-art-of-witness“Why Primo Levi Survives”: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2015/12/why-primo-levi-survives/413134/

Benedetta Jasmine Guetta provides a history of Jewish Italians and dishes to bring to the seder table this Passover. Finally, tangerines are at their sweetest this time of year at the farmer's market.

When related to Italian Jewish cuisine, the foods of Italy embark on a two-way journey. There are dishes that non-Jewish Italians taste without knowing anything about the Jewish origins of the recipes. And throughout history, Jewish people have ingeniously turned Italian dishes into kosher. They do that by the division method, following the Torah's strict laws and dividing dairy derivatives from meat in general, especially pork, rabbit, horse, camel, and others. But Jewish cooking is much more intricate than few rules. Read the full transcript www.flavorsandknowledge.com for more info Podcasts are available on Anchor FM, Spotify, or preferred platforms.

Professor Jeffrey Woolf is not only a leading academic in Israel, specializing in the history of halacha and Italian Jewish history, but also a leading voice in the Modern Orthodox community. Join Rabbi Matanky in a conversation that begins with Professor Woolf's memories of Rav Solovetichik and Professor Twersky and moves forward to the challenges we face as a religious Jewish community in the present day.

To many, the Spanish Inquisition calls to mind one of countless historical examples of the persecution of the Jews. Or maybe it conjures Mel Brooks' macabre, comedic roost in “History of the World, Part I.” Yet, for hundreds of thousands of people, the Inquisition represents a historical drama that continues to shape their lives. In the past few decades, a growing number of the descendants of Jews who had been forced to flee, convert, or hide Jewish practices during the Inquisition have been seeking to reconnect with their Jewish roots. At times, they have been embraced, other times shunned, and, too often, encountered Jewish experiences that didn't authentically reflect their Sephardic roots. We talk about all this with Rabbi Leila Gal Berner, a scholar of Spanish Jewry and former congregational leader. Rabbi Berner's latest book is Listening to the Heart of Genesis: A Contemplative Path (Wipf and Stock), a fresh, contemporary approach to the stories and themes of Genesis that includes the practice of Kri'at Hakodesh, Sacred Reading. For her research into the medieval Spanish Jewish community, see her book, On the Western Shores: The Jews of Barcelona During the Reign of Jaume I, el Conqueridor 1213-1276. To broaden the discussion, we also speak with Rabbi Barbara Aiello, who grew up stateside steeped in her Italian Jewish heritage. Nearly 20 years ago, Rabbi Aiello returned to her ancestral homeland of Calabria, Italy to help rebuild Jewish life. She founded Sinagoga Ner Tamid del Sul, the first openly functioning synagogue in Calabria in nearly 500 years. Theme song, “Ilu Finu” by Rabbi Miriam Margles.

Samuel David Luzzatto (1800-1865), known by his Hebrew acronym Shadal, was the leading Italian Jewish scholar of the 19th century. A linguist, educator, and religious thinker, he devoted his talents above all to the interpretation of the Bible. As a master of Hebrew grammar and usage, he focused on the plain meaning of the text. Although he was a devout believer in the divinity, unity, and antiquity of the Torah, Shadal approached the text in a remarkably free spirit of inquiry, drawing upon a wide variety of sources, ancient and contemporary, Jewish and non-Jewish. As a result, his interpretations may strike even the modern reader as fresh and novel. Shadal's treatment of the books of the Torah consisted of his Italian translation of the text and his Hebrew-language commentary. Here, for the first time, is an all-English version of both the text translation and the unabridged commentary. Daniel A. Klein, translator and editor of Luzzatto's commentaries, has supplied copious explanatory notes and a list identifying the sources cited. Through Kodesh Press, Daniel Klein has translated Shadal's commentaries on Genesis (2019), Exodus (2015), and Leviticus (2020). Join us as we speak with Daniel Klein about Luzzatto's life and commentaries on the Torah! Daniel A. Klein is an attorney and legal writer, and a graduate of Yeshiva University and New York University School of Law. His study of Italian as a youthful hobby led to a fascination with Italian Jewish culture and, in particular, the works of Shadal (Samuel David Luzzatto).He and his wife live in Rochester, New York, where he has taught Judaic studies at elementary, high school, and adult levels. Michael Morales is Professor of Biblical Studies at Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary, and the author of The Tabernacle Pre-Figured: Cosmic Mountain Ideology in Genesis and Exodus (Peeters, 2012), Who Shall Ascend the Mountain of the Lord?: A Biblical Theology of Leviticus (IVP Academic, 2015), and Exodus Old and New: A Biblical Theology of Redemption (IVP Academic, 2020).

Now this is a great angle to talk about food! What better way to talk shop than with the don of dermatology, Dr. Paul Jarrod Frank. Known to have helped so many people worldwide, as well as many well-known ‘faces’, Dr. Paul’s approach to aging is all about Pro-Aging. We’re sold the idea of anti-aging and how products will reverse the inevitable, but why don’t we just change our mindset? We’re all going in the same direction, so let’s embrace it and help ourselves along the way! This is all about lifestyle and it’s never too late to change things up. When it comes to food, Dr. Paul explains to me it’s all about moderation not restriction. He discusses his Italian-Jewish heritage, his favourite pastrami sandwiches and his absolute love for the perfect chocolate chip cookie.@drpauljarrodfrank@crazysexyfood@hannahharleywww.crazysexyfood.comMusic by @casnova____This season is sponsored by Future Farm.

Il ciclo di conferenze telematiche “Cultura e religione in Italia tra medioevo ed età moderna” intende approfondire il contributo dato negli ultimi anni dai giovani studiosi alla ricostruzione della storia politico-religiosa e culturale della Penisola in un periodo travagliato e ricco di trasformazioni che vide l'affermazione di modelli culturali che in un certo senso plasmarono l'identità e il carattere degli Italiani. Nella prima conferenza della serie Martina Mampieri, Silvia Manzi e Stefania Salvadori discutono dei risultati delle loro ricerche con Massimo Carlo Giannini e Franco Pierno. Modera Benedetto Ligorio.Martina Mampieri, “Living under the Evil Pope. The Hebrew Chronicle of Pope Paul IV by Benjamin Neḥemiah ben Elnathan from Civitanova Marche (16th cent.)”, Brill, Boston-Leiden 2020In “Living under the Evil Pope”, Martina Mampieri presents the Hebrew “Chronicle of Pope Paul IV”, written in the second half of the sixteenth century by the Italian Jewish moneylender Benjamin Neḥemiah ben Elnathan (alias Guglielmo di Diodato) from Civitanova Marche. The text remained in manuscript for about four centuries until the Galician scholar Isaiah Sonne (1887-1960) published a Hebrew annotated edition of the chronicle in the 1930s. This remarkable source offers an account of the events of the Papal States during Paul IV's pontificate (1555-59). Making use of broad archival materials, Martina Mampieri reflects on the nature of this work, its historical background, and contents, providing a revised edition of the Hebrew text as well as the first unabridged English translation and commentary.Silvia Manzi, “Le lingue della Chiesa. Latino e volgare nella normativa ecclesiastica in Italia tra Cinque e Seicento”, FUP, Firenze 2018Nei secoli centrali dell'Età Moderna il latino fu la lingua ufficiale della Chiesa di Roma, ma dall'analisi di bolle, editti e decreti emerge come il volgare fosse preferito quale lingua veicolare. Pur osteggiando la dottrina luterana, favorevole all'uso del volgare sia nelle Scritture sia nella liturgia, e riservando la conoscenza dei misteri della fede ai soli in grado di comprendere il latino, vescovi e inquisitori della Penisola utilizzarono proprio la lingua volgare per trasmettere bolle pontificie e decreti conciliari. Su quali temi era necessario farsi comprendere? Vi era fedeltà agli originali o si sfruttavano i margini di interpetazione per arginare la stretta repressiva imposta dal papato post-tridentino?Martin Lutero, “Libro de la emendatione et correctione dil stato christiano, a cura di Stefania Salvadori”, Edizioni di Storia e Letteratura, Roma 2019Nel 1533 usciva a Strasburgo, presso Georg Ulricher, un piccolo testo in ottavo dal titolo “Libro de la Emendatione et Correctione dil stato Christiano”. Non era una semplice traduzione del ben più noto “An den Christlichen Adel deutscher Nation”, che Martin Lutero aveva pubblicato tredici anni prima, ne era anche un deciso rimaneggiamento, caratterizzato da una marcata libertà di resa rispetto all'originale e dalle numerose interpolazioni che amplificavano i toni polemici e ponevano al centro dell'aspra denuncia proprio la situazione ecclesiastica italiana. Chi l'aveva commissionato, chi lo aveva tradotto e a quale pubblico era destinato?Per la prima volta si offre in questo volume un'edizione critica del “Libro de la Emendatione et Correctione dil stato Christiano” ricostruendone le divergenze rispetto all'originale tedesco e dando così voce alla particolare sensibilità religiosa e agli obiettivi teologici ultimi del suo traduttore. Un'ampia introduzione ricompone tutti gli indizi relativi alla genesi e alla ricezione di questo testo centrale per la diffusione della Riforma in Italia nella prima metà del Cinquecento, a partire soprattutto dal contesto veneziano.

Ep.5 - Food & Convo visits with OJ Slaughter, a Boston-based photographer and visual storyteller at Dorchester Art Project (DAP), a community driven art space managed by Brain Arts Org. OJ tells us about their voyage from New Jersey to Massachusetts and how coming from a bi-racial Italian-Jewish household has shaped their outlook on the world and relationship with food. OJ recounts following and documenting the Black Lives Matter movement from rallies and protests throughout Massachusetts to the March on Washington in August. Currently, OJ is working on a documentary called "The History of Now"- the story of black people in Boston as told by black people in Boston and was recently featured alongside Food & Convo's own Che Anderson in The Boston Globe series, "A Beautiful Resistance", written and created by culture columnist Jeneé Osterheldt.Shout out local musician Oompa for joining us, Chef Terrell Wilson for some bomb small-batch southern-pie flavored ice cream and to Miracle Seltzer from our previous podcast for the Pickle Rick seltzer!

Your Starter Kitchen: The Definitive Beginner’s Guide to Stocking, Organizing, and Cooking in Your Kitchen.By Lisa Chernick Intro: Welcome to the number one cookbook podcast, Cookery by the Book with Suzy Chase. She's just a home cook in New York City, sitting at her dining room table, talking to cookbook authors.Lisa Chernick: I'm Lisa Chernick and my new book is called Your Starter Kitchen.Suzy Chase: For more Cookery by the Book you can follow me on Instagram. If you enjoy this podcast, please be sure to share it with a friend. I'm always looking for new people to enjoy Cookery by the Book. So, you are an executive food editor at Weight Watchers, a James Beard book awards judge, a two time James Beard book awards nominee, you spent more than 20 years as a food writer and editor, including work at Epicurious and Food Arts Magazine. By the way, I miss Food Arts so much. It was a glorious magazine.Lisa Chernick: I agree. I miss it too. Even when I wasn't part of the team officially, I always felt like I was part of that team. They were great people. I love the magazine. I miss it a lot.Suzy Chase: Okay. We need to talk about bringing it back, but we'll talk about your book first.Lisa Chernick: Okay. I like that.Suzy Chase: So tell us about how this book is based on your experience as an American, who lived in Italy and trained in the French culinary tradition?Lisa Chernick: Well, the book is really a collection of experiences that I've accumulated, as you said, from living in Italy from going to culinary school, which just happened to be a French training program. And, you know, I think more than anything, it was an opportunity for me to share all of the knowledge about what makes my kitchen run well and some of the things that maybe I thought could be improved upon that I wanted to share with other people, everything that I think really a cook needs, and it all kind of had the opportunity to come together in one place and I just thought that that was a great thing. And in terms of the particular types of cooking that are near and dear to my heart, it really just, I think is my good fortune just because I was in graduate school when I was in Italy and I came to really value a lot of the ingredients and a lot of the cooking sensibilities that Italians have. They're very good about portion control, sort of just this innate easy going way of, you know, a little bit of everything because it tastes so fantastic seems to satisfy. I'm a huge fan and supporter of using great olive oil. I love pasta. I love great cheeses, good tomatoes, olives, capers, a lot of the things that were sort of in the Italian, pantry and fresh ingredients and it just sort of informs a lot of what I do. I think it's just because my time that I was, I was very open to learning, happened to be when I was over in Italy so I picked up a lot there. And then cooking school kind of filled in the rest.Suzy Chase: I love that you call this book a journey, it concentrates on items you need and pantry staples that you should have on hand in three different phases of having a kitchen. Talk a little bit about the three phases.Lisa Chernick: Well, the first phase was really meant to be helpful for someone in that very first kitchen that you might be pulling together away from the kitchen you grew up in, chances are you're going to have roommates and chances are you're going to be starting out with pretty much nothing. Whatever, few things you might've been able to swipe from your parents house and that's about it. So I wanted to kind of jump in right there and help people see what they really need and also avoid the sort of quantity over quality trap that I think happens a lot of the time when you're doing a kitchen for the very first time. You know, you think you need a lot of things and some of them you probably do, but a lot of them, you probably don't. And I wanted to have all of that written down in one place. I mean, I wish that I would've had that written down in one place. When I think back to my first apartment, it kind of makes me laugh some of the crazy, ridiculous things that we all thought we needed to have. It's also important with the roommate situation. If you're going into a kitchen together, if each of the roommates can sort of use some of their resources to buy one really nice thing and bring that into the kitchen, you know, really good knife. And nice sauce pan whatever the item might be. That's a high quality item. They can bring that along with them through their whole cooking lifetime. And then you don't have to have an argument about who gets stuck with the crummy chip plates at the end, and who gets to have the nice knife. If each of the roommates has their one thing, it'll be theirs forever. And I also wanted to teach some easy, simple stuff in that first kitchen, like how to make a vinaigrette, how to make eggs for yourself a frittata that you could eat for breakfast, or you could have for dinner, just things that make you feel taken care of. And then the second phase is for people who are a little further along, you know, maybe it's your first place of your own. That's truly yours. Maybe you bought a place or maybe you're getting married or moving in with someone. And, and maybe if you're lucky you even have the power of a registry behind it. And you're looking to figure out what to put on that registry. And so I wanted to kind of touch on what I felt was important at that point. And the third phase is really that chance to whether it's because you have more space or more resources financially or both that you can kind of really splash out and fill it with things that would be really wonderful without being just cluttery or unnecessary. I tried to touch on all of the elements in each of those three and give recipes and techniques too.Suzy Chase: What are the gadgets we shouldn't be buying. And what's a gadget that you bought in your first kitchen that you shouldn't have bought.Lisa Chernick: I have a cherry pitter that I bought that is still with me since forever. And I don't have the heart to get rid of it because it was kind of nice, I think when I bought it and it's not that big so I feel kind of like, well, it doesn't take up that much space, but this cherry pitter, if I use it once every few years, it's a miracle. It should be paying rent. It's like taking up space in the drawer and it has been there forever. And it does virtually nothing just don't buy it to begin with.Suzy Chase: What are some tips for a more seasoned cook.Lisa Chernick: For the more seasoned cooks, I feel like one of the main things that you come to discover is that planning is as important or even maybe more important than the execution that French term mise en place, which is like everything in its place, the more you cook, the more you realize how much of a difference it makes to be organized before you start. And also now that we're all cooking so much more than we used to because we're home so much, I think also planning meals, that's a job, that's a real effort and you have to do it in order for things to really work well in your home kitchen. I was thinking about the holidays and I was thinking about how Thanksgiving is kind of the ultimate expression of that, of that planning and being ready for something the list-making for Thanksgiving. It kind of begins in October and you know, it's like, what are the dishes going to be? What's the menu, who's coming and then sort of breaking it all down into what to, by when, so that you're never feeling overwhelmed. And I have a little section about this in the book. It's a big undertaking and it can be so much fun. It's my favorite holiday because I love cooking all of those dishes and the challenge of timing. It all. It's, it's really fun.Suzy Chase: What is one item that makes your kitchen your own?Lisa Chernick: Good knives, sheet pans and several pairs of tongs.Suzy Chase: And a cherry pitter.Lisa Chernick: And a cherry pitter that just stares at you making you feel like a dope, yeah. A good sharp knife is much less dangerous than a dull one. A well sharpened knife is just going to glide through the food and you're going to be fine. Y.Suzy Chase: You have a whole section dedicated to kids in the kitchen. Talk a little bit about the kids essential collection.Lisa Chernick: Having the right pantry items and what you need on hand to do some easy baking with kids and to do some cookie decorating and the kinds of things that really feel magical to kids. That's really not that hard to do. It's not a lot of stuff you need to keep on hand. It's just a fairly tight list and I have it in the book and I think it's just really nice to be able to be ready. And let me say, on the topic of cookies, one of the recipes in my book, is a pan cookie, which is essentially just like a bar cookie recipe. I came to love that recipe so much because I think kids love making cookies to the point where they love adding ingredients and stirring and making the dough and that's all the glamorous part. And then they kind of burn out and kind of leave. And then the parents find themselves rolling out four dozen chocolate chip cookies, thinking like, how did I get myself into this? Why aren't the kids doing this part? And the kids are sort of done. And so the bar cookie slash pan cookie is the best answer. You let them make the dough, put it in the pan and then when it's all done, the bar cookies are out on the platter. And everybody's happy.Suzy Chase: Now for my segment called Last Night's Dinner where I ask you what you had last night for dinner.Lisa Chernick: Well, I love this. This is such a great segment. And my last night dinner was really hilarious. So I would be delighted to share this with you. It was sort of the crown jewel in my weird Italian Jewish mashup series. If I could call it that, where I used leftover brisket from Rosh Hashanah from the Jewish new year. And I turned it into my pasta sauce that I had with pappardelle. And the funny thing was there was also leftover kugel and I was kind of contemplating how to bring that into the picture, but I just sort of felt that they really needed to be separate. We sort of had to just move that one over to the side. And I made this really nice salad with arugula that had some of the dressing, but it was a beautiful apple cider vinegar and mustard vinaigrette. There were apples and there were some roasted brussels sprouts and there was a little bit of cheese in there. What else did I have in there? Oh, some toasted rye bread croutons that I made myself and that was really yummy.Suzy Chase: Where can we find you on the web and social media?Lisa Chernick: My Instagram is Lisa dot Chernik and my website is LisaChernik.com. And you can keep track of me in either of those places.Suzy Chase: This book is the reality check for our kitchen that we need. Thank you so much, Lisa, for coming on Cookery by the Book podcast.Lisa Chernick: Thank you so much for having me. I loved talking to you.Outro: Subscribe over on CookerybytheBook.com and thanks for listening to the number one cookbook podcast, Cookery by the Book.

This is a conversation with Lina Mounzer. She's a Beirut-based writer and translator who, like me, took part in the October and post-October protests. I wanted to catch up with her to talk about how she started preparing for the worst yet to come very early on. This anticipation - of economic hardship, of violence - is a widespread phenomenon in Lebanon but not a lot of people are able to express it so accurately like Lina does. I know I've struggled to do so. Lina experienced the ups and downs of the revolution. She wrote the moods and experiences and facts in her diaries as it was happening, and she has clearly deeply thought about what the past several months in Lebanon have meant, and even the past few decades. We talked about Lebanon, about revolution as a 'feeling greater than love' (which is also the title of a Lebanese film), and why many people actually miss the civil war, or rather are so tired of the present's uncertainty that the past's certainties, however horrible, were easier to digest. And we even talked about the impact that the Italian Jewish writer and Holocaust survivor Primo Levi's writings have had on her. This is why I was really looking forward to having this chat with her, and I hope you also enjoy it. The first part of this convo is roughly around this essay of hers for LitHub: Letter from Beirut: From Revolution to Pandemic. You can find the remaining articles on the website.

Episode 39. This week we got some old Hollywood bangers from a couple Southside "cholos." Born in Santa Monica and Baldwin Village respectively, Lucky and Lepke met in the joint in 1993 and quickly bonded over their shared Italian-Jewish heritage and a love for classic cinema. But they also had addiction in common. They tell all this week from riots on the yard to smoking Maui Wowie in 1970s Los Angeles. From falling in love with dope to chasing sex on meth and finally taking bullets for their behaviour on the streets. As if that wasn't enough to stop them, Lucky and Lepke will be back with more stories of paranoia and PCP next week. Enjoy.

Karen talks about her challenges when it comes to finding elements of wedding traditions that are not religious.

In his lecture, Alessandro Grazi is going to delineate the main traits of his ongoing research project on Italian Jewish prayer books printed in the Nineteenth Century. The aim of this project is to carry out a digital and conceptual analysis of nineteenth-century Italian prayer books, with the purpose of utilizing them as objects of historical inquiry. The tools I will use to carry out this analysis consist of an inventory and digitization of these prayer books, in order to enable a digital analysis with OCR software (Optical Character Recognition). Prayer books encompass every aspect of Jewish life, from everyday prayers to the special occasions of the High Holidays. For this reason, they are the most frequently printed book in Judaism. In spite of their prominence in Jewish life, they have received very little academic attention, because they have been considered as stable factors, unworthy of analyses of its dynamics. Indeed, it is true that prayer books maintained a certain uniformity in space and time, but the small changes of the different editions can actually represent substantial changes in the political and cultural perception of a specific Jewry, in a specific place and time. The OCR is used to single out and address exactly these variations, with the purpose of answering the following questions: How do materiality and spirituality relate to each other? Can we establish changing patterns relating to siddurim and mahzorim as religious/sacred objects over time? How do prayer books attest to the construction of their owners' Jewish identities?

On this episode of Family Meal, I sat down and chatted with Dominick Lofaso, founder and owner of Mad City Boxing in LA. So how do boxing and food relate? Well I met Dom a few years back when he was managing A.O.C. Wine Bar in Los Angeles, and he interviewed (and hired!) me. Now the tables are turned, the mic's on him- he's left the restaurant world to pursue his passion of opening (an amazing!!) boxing gym and he talks growing up in a big Italian-Jewish family, how to open a business, and why details and catering to all 5 senses will serve you not only in a restaurant, but any operation. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Most importantly, thank you for supporting our show all these years! Be on the lookout for info about our next Snacky Tunes Live event, which hits the stage this summer.

Joining Maggi and David on the show today is singer/songwriter Ashley Levy! You might recognize her most notable work on the show RuPaul's Drag Race!  The show opens with the gang just talking shop about the entertainment biz. Then we learn her love of music comes from her dad...who is strangely very contemporary and even makes fun of Ashley for how she consumes her music. Then she dishes on how technology CAN work in your favor in modern romance. We get right into her Fave5 and learn about growing up with grandparents, how Christmas worked in a split Italian/Jewish/divorced/step-family home.  The answer is honey balls. Aways honey balls.   Ashley gets particularly insightful discussing her relationship with her grandparents and what it was like growing up with a much older generation of people. She has an intense love for car shows and we find out about her first "job job." It's not until much later Ashley reveals a pretty big secret about her love for music and the kind of art she makes.   Band or Bar takes us to Rohnert Park, CA in Sonoma County. Don't click on the link! See if you can guess which is which!Ashley has a quizzical Guilty Pleasure and an "embarrassing" First Concert. Catch up with her on Instagram and while you are at it...check us out on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter! Thanks and enjoy the show.

Hear about how ethnic tradition and cultural food survives through holiday meals. What Jewish foods have become part of everyday Italian cuisine?

There were also issues whether or not some of these dishes came to be associated with Jews- and that was sometime the case- but most of these dishes were brought by Jewish people.” [6:50] “There has been fusion since there have been borders!” [15:00] — Cara De Silva on A Taste of the Past “One thing that is notable about Jewish Italian cuisine is that it was influenced by so many immigrants, sort of like Jewish food in the United States.” [11:20] — Jayne Cohen on A Taste of the Past
