International Vegetarian Union History of Vegetarianism Europe: early 20th Century Shmuel Yosef Agnon Agnon is a central figure in modern Hebrew fiction. He wrote many novels and short stories about major contemporary spiritual concerns. He won the Israel Prize for Literature in 1954 and 1958 and the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1966, the first time that honor was given to a Hebrew writer. Agnon was a devout Jew who spent much of his life in Israel. He was extremely dedicated to vegetarianism and wove vegetarian themes into many of his stories. His great sensitivity to all creatures is indicated in the following excerpt from his speech upon receiving the Nobel Prize for Literature: Lest I slight any creature, I must also mention the domestic animals, the beasts, and the birds from whom I have learned. Job said long ago (35:11) "Who teacheth us more than than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?" - Richard Schwartz

July 17, 1888, Buczacz, Galicia, Austria-Hungary [now Buchach, Ukraine]d. Feb. 17, 1970, Rehovot, Israel), Israeli writer who was one of the leading modern Hebrew novelists and short-story writers. In 1966 he was the corecipient, with Nelly Sachs , of the Nobel Prize for Literature Born of a family of Polish Jewish merchants, rabbis, and scholars, Agnon wrote at first (1903-06) in Yiddish and Hebrew, under his own name and various pseudonyms. Soon after settling in Palestine in 1907, however, he took the surname Agnon and chose Hebrew as the language in which to unfold his dramatic, visionary, highly polished narratives. Agnon's real literary debut was made with Agunot (1908; "Forsaken Wives"), his first "Palestinian" story. His first major work was the novel Hakhnasat kalah, 2 vol. (1919; The Bridal Canopy ). Its hero, Reb Yudel Hasid, is the embodiment of every wandering, drifting Jew in the ghettos of the tsarist and Austro-Hungarian empires. His second novel, Ore'ah Nata' Lalun A Guest for the Night ), describes the material and moral decay of European Jewry after World War I. His third and perhaps greatest novel

Analysis of Shmuel Yosef Agnon In the study of Hebrew literature, Shmuel Yosef Agnon stands out as one of its greatest spokesman. Agnon was the recipient of a Nobel Prize in 1966 for literature. He has written numerous works which are considered to be the foundation of modern Hebrew literature. Of his stories that our group has read, we have decided that his work "The Lady and the Pedlar" is the most interesting. In this story, Agnon shows hints of his culture through a pedlar, a simple story line, and the use of fiction, along with supernatural events. Our group plans to show examples of each of these techniques that Agnon uses. home

One of the central figures in modern Hebrew fiction, Shmuel Yosef Agnon was Nobel Laureate in Literature in 1966. In 1907 he left his childhood home in eastern Galicia, settling in Palestine where (except for a stay in Germany from 1913 to 1924) he remained until his death. Using language and storytelling techniques drawn from Jewish religious texts and folk literature, Agnon's works deal with major contemporary spiritual concerns: the disintegration of traditional world of Galician Jewry at the turn of the 20th century, the loss of faith, and the subsequent loss of identity. In addition to his fictional work, Agnon published popular collections of rabbinic lore and hasidic tales, among them Yamim Noraim (Days of Awe).

He was though, radically unlike other great, Nobel-winning writers of the century like Thomas Mann or Albert Camus. Some of his preoccupations, such as the struggle to live a religiously-observant existence in a modern world, seem archaic but this somehow fits well with the whole notion of Modern Hebrew; the revival of a literature and a language from the past for a revived Jewish nation.

Matthew Patay's Note of the Month April 2003 Map and flag images provided by Graphic Maps This month's featured note is from Brazil. The denomination is 50 Reais and the Standard Catalog of World Paper Money (SCWPM) Number is P-246c. The note is not dated but has been issued from (1994 to present). (obverse) The banknote is dark brown and red-brown on multicolored under print. Sculpture of the Republic is at center right. The following information was obtained from: http://www.geographia.com/brazil/brazihistory.htm Brazil (ca. 1500 to Present) The Portuguese were the first European settlers to arrive in the area, led by adventurous Pedro Cabral, who began the colonial period in 1500. The Portuguese reportedly found native Indians numbering around seven million. Most tribes were peripatetic, with only limited agriculture and temporary dwellings, although villages often had as many as 5000 inhabitants. Cultural life appears to have been richly developed, although both tribal warfare and cannibalism were ubiquitous. The few remaining traces of Brazil's Indian tribes reveal little of their lifestyle, unlike the evidence from other Andean tribes. Today, fewer than 200,000 of Brazil's indigenous people survive, most of whom inhabit the jungle areas. Other Portuguese explorers followed Cabral, in search of valuable goods for European trade but also for unsettled land and the opportunity to escape poverty in Portugal itself. The only item of value they discovered was the pau do brasil (brazil wood tree) from which they created red dye. Unlike the colonizing philosophy of the Spanish, the Portuguese in Brazil were much less focused at first on conquering, controlling, and developing the country. Most were impoverished sailors, who were far more interested in profitable trade and subsistence agriculture than in territorial expansion. The country's interior remained unexplored.
