RE: [Cz-L] Safa Ivria question + Pictures

 
Shalom Jerry,

As far as I know there were many Hebrew teachers who gave private lessons or
taught in other religious and/or Zionist circles.

>From the somewhat chaotic article "The Oldest Societies, Institutions and
Organizations of Bukovina" I copied for you the paragraph about Safa Iwriah

http://www.jewishgen.org/yizkor/bukowinabook/buk1_153.html

"After World War I, the Safa Iwria organization was founded in Czernowitz
with the purpose of promoting the use of the Hebrew language by the building
of schools The organization was first able to achieve this goal in 1918 when
it became a Hebrew school umbrella organization to which all the Hebrew
schools and institutions in the state belonged. At that time, Safa Iwria ran
besides 3 kindergartens, several courses for students and public school
teachers as well as a teachers' academy and a one room Hebrew public school
and schools and courses in Gurahumora, Unter-Stanestie, Waschkoutz, Wiznitz,
Radautz and Kotzman.

Next, the organization obtained a building lot on Synagogengasse and built
their own school on it.

The long time president of the organization was Dr. Josef Bierer. After his
death, Dr. Lupa Rappaport and then Prof. Dr. H. Sternberg led the
organization. The secretary for many years was Kalman Gronich."

( The first secretary general of Safa Iwriah in 1919-20 was Schamschon
Schechter -Ehrenkranz . See article about "Zephira" )

Saffa Iviriah-- Thank Irene Fisher for sharing the links about teaching
Hebrew in Czernowitz. . Between 1934 and 1938 in the summer my mother and I
came to Czernowitz to visit my grandparents Fannie and Samuel Glasberg. We
came from Eretz Yisrael (Palestine) at first the language of our visits was
German. I have a vivid memory walking with my grandfather having a
conversation in German, when my grand father suddenly switched to Hebrew.
>From that time on all my conversation with my Saba were in Hebrew. Based on
the information I just received I assume that my grand father must have
studied in one of the adult Hebrew programs.

B' Shalom

Hi, all those interested in the Saffa Iwriah ( with all sorts of funny
spellings) in Czernowitz and Bukowina.

Here is the link to the Chapter about Hebrew teaching in Czernowitz, in Hugo
Gold's "History of the Jews in Bukowina"
