Tongue Ties: The Emergence of the Anglophone Jewish Diaspora in the Mid-Nineteenth Century

Tongue Ties or Fragments Transformed: Making Sense of Similarities and Differences between the Five Largest English-Speaking Jewish Communities

“…The five Jewish communities examined in this paper have a common British origin story, with Mendelsohn’s ( 2007 ) claims about the enduring existence of a common Anglophone culture and Bronfenbrenner’s ( 2001 ) claims about effects of different national contexts both supported somewhat in the patterns of engagement across the communities. For while the countries’ measures of Jewish ethnocultural and religious capital were statistically different, they were not entirely inconsistent, South Africa had the highest measures of both forms of capital; Australia, Canada, and the UK inhabited a middle position, and the US had the lowest measures of both ethnocultural and religious capital.…”

“…With the passage of time, however, do these communities have enduring commonalities? Mendelsohn ( 2007 ) claims common language and continuous communication between Jews in the “Anglophone diaspora… knitted the Jewish communities of the English-speaking countries into a new cultural, religious and social sphere” (p. 178). Despite distance and the passage of time, Mendelsohn argues that the continuous exchange of news, conventions, and styles created a common Anglophone culture.…”

“…As Hartz noted in the above extract, the Jews from these five countries may have British origins, but with the passage of time, how much do these Jewish communities have in common? Does Mendelsohn’s ( 2007 ) claim about the power of a connected Anglophone find validation in strong similarities across the five communities? Or does Bronfenbrenner’s ( 2001 ) argument about the power of the national context find expression in variability vis-à-vis ethnocultural and religious capital?…”

Deconstructing the Tropes of Communication in Jonathan Foer's Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

“…The different circumstances the Jews passed throughout their long heritage of diaspora (Shulvass, 1971;Rutland, 2005;Kenny, 2013;Rubinstein et al, 2002;Gartner, 2001; & Lupovitch, 2010) has marked their identity formation to the extent that Jewish identity is described as a mosaic/geologically-structured identity (Almasiri, 2002). One of the largest and most influential Jewish groups is the Anglophone Jewish diaspora that stretches throughout British dominating territories to America (Mendelsohn, 2007& Sarna, 2006. Among these contexts, the focus, in this study, is shed on the American Jewish diaspora as the most context that provides more assimilating circumstances for the Jews to settle and practice their Jewishness freely and according to their various perspectives.…”
