Galician Jews contributed significantly to the expansion of Jews in Vienna and the cultural ferment in that city in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as newer generations (generally) shed the orthodox practices of their elders.


This is a long article on the subject (I've only read the first few pages) that probably tells you all that (and more than) you want to know about the subject: http://www.jgaliciabukovina.net/sit...icia Under Austrian-Polish Rule 1867-1918.pdf

An interesting and diverse list of Jews born in Galicia or identifying as Galitzianer:

including Sigmund Freud, Barbara Streisand, Billy Wilder, Isidor Isaac Rabi, Eliot Spitzer, Ludwig von Mises, Mel Brooks, Arthur Murray, Lee Strasberg, Helena Rubenstein, Emmanuel Feuerman, Emmanuel Ax, Martin Buber, Nina Hartley, Henry Roth, Joseph Roth, etc.

Not Hyman Roth? He was bigger than US Steel...

Well, Lee Strasberg, who's on that list, played Hyman Roth in The Godfather II, so that ought to be good enough.

The real Hyman Roth, Meyer Lansky, was from Grodno, which is now in Belarus near the Polish border, but AFAIK, was not part of Galicia. . . . But apparently the family originally was from someplace in Poland, so maybe.

Ian, after your excellent posting in the Doc Watson thread, the thread appears to have disappeared!?!

Jeff, can't you fix it?Aren't u the p'boro?

Slummin' times
I am not. Ye Gods, don't say such things out loud.

It is true, however, that they call upon me for technical support. But this 'Forbidden' thing is something wrong with the server itself, so it's up to LDM to fix, not the PB.

Last I heard, they have bought a new server (it hosts other things, too) and it will be swapped-in shortly.
