Title A name given to the resource The Constitution of the United States Subject The topic of the resource Hebrew/Yiddish Translation of The American Constitution Description An account of the resource After researching more on the topic of mass immigration in America, otherwise known as the "Great Migration," I came across a very unique translation of the United States' Constitution. This translation caught my eye in particular because it was directly translated to both Hebrew and Yiddish. The translation was written in 1891 by J. D. Eisenstein, who was a Jewish scholar and historian. In the introduction before his translation is presented, Eisenstein discussed how his intention for republishing such an important American document was for the Jewish residents of the lower part of New York City to be Americanized. He also sympathizes with these Jewish people, since he was once in their same position until he became more aware and more involved with this country to start his new life, as he hopes for them. As Europe and the United States were greatly impacted with the Great Migration since the end of the 19th century, an estimated thirty million immigrants from Europe travelled to the United States. From Russia and Eastern Europe, about three million of these immigrants were Jewish trying to escape their home countries due to mass poverty and pogroms. Since citizenship was of the upmost importance in order to for immigrants to become American, a vast amount of Jewish people went about attending English classes during the night to improve their language skills. This further presents how the Jewish people aimed to strive and be more equipped to live somewhere new so they could adapt to the norms and laws that society had imposed on its citizens.

The cover is very similar to his other work that is featured in Fire!!. Many geometric shapes are used to vaguely represent human arms. He also uses a minimal palette, just three shades of blue. What this magazine cover represents is the modernist approach that many artist took during the Harlem Renaissance and the 1920s. Like the rest of the artist in the modernist movement, African Americans strived to remove themselves from the traditional frame of thought of what it meant to be African American and create a new identity.

Title A name given to the resource Einstein's Theory of Relativity Subject The topic of the resource Einstein's original manuscript on the Theory of Relativity Description An account of the resource I came across an interesting document as began to look more into known Jewish people who immigrated to America. This document in particular happened to belong to none other than Albert Einstein, the founder of the general theory of relativity and its formula E = mc2. Other than this German-born theoretical physicist discovering one of the two pillars of modern physics, he also was known for his profoundness in philosophical science as well. The document presented appears to be a holograph essay titled "Zur Elektrodynamik bewegter Korper." This first page talks about his beginning ideas for his theory on relativity. Apparently he decided to rid his opinion on the matter from the publication of Annalen der Physic in 1905. He then decided to rewrite his paper some years later in November of 1943 so it could given to the Library of Congress and promote to aid the selling of war bonds for the U.S. Even though Albert Einstein was of Jewish descent, Einstein was born and raised Germany. As Adolf Hitler rose to power in 1933, he decided to denounce his German citizenship so he could immigrate to the United States. He then received a position at Princeton University as the Professor of Theoretical Physics, to which he proceeded to gain his American citizenship after completing a "Declaration of Intention." Einstein further pursuing his scientific endeavors was able to allow him more time and concentration towards finding all the faults with his own theory so it could be exact.

Title A name given to the resource New York's Lower East Side Subject The topic of the resource Living Conditions for Jewish Immigrants Description An account of the resource This painting by Albert Potter appeared very informative to me as it so vividly depicts New York's Lower East Side. During the beginning of twentieth century, the Lower East Side was essentially the main area where a large amount of Jewish immigrants lived. The painting displays these people crowded heavily with various signs of community and patronage. As the streets remain busy and congested, the Lower East Side was able to provide a popular mean of pushcart trading and other retail occupations. Some of these include the incorporation of restaurants, kosher butcher shops and bakeries, which all seem fitting for the preference of Jewish immigrants. Potter was another Jewish immigrant that travelled from Russia in order to seek a better life through his works of art. I felt that this depiction of an immigrant living environment was able to capture quite a few different messages about the life of a Jewish American citizen. I saw that a place such as this provided a strong sense of community that allowed those of the Jewish culture to continuously relish and immerse themselves in their own culture. Not only this, but the fact that most were attempting to adapt further into living at somewhat of an American lifestyle. So having a constant reminder of the past life and culture they lived through only further benefitted the immigrants to remain intact with pieces of their old lives in a place where so many different cultures are mixed amongst each other. Yet even though these Jewish immigrants were Americanized, they were able to still hold on to a small piece of home to themselves in the process. This type of community could of proved useful to Abraham Cahan's fictional character Yekl, as he could of used this type of environment to his advantage of keeping his priorities for his life and family's future in the right place instead of the opposite route that he had followed.

Title A name given to the resource Undergraduate Life at Smith College Description An account of the resource The item I choose to analyze is an article called “Undergraduate Life at Smith College” This article gives a comprehensive description of what life is like for an average student at Smith College. The audience could be many people, but I believe it to be the young women of the middle and upper class on the East Coast. Alice Katherine Fallows, the author of this article, also wrote other things. She wrote a self-help book series that was featured in the Journal of Education. It’s apparent while reading the article that Fallows is an alumni of Smith College and gained a positive outlook on being an educated women. She speaks frankly on what it’s like to go to Smith and highlights all the positives of being a woman at Smith College. The illustrator, Walter Appleton Clark, also seems to have direction with his art work in the article. Clark was the official illustrator for the Scribner’s Magazine for many years. His art work represents the movement towards impressionism and modernism which perfectly captures the essence of what a women’s college was at that time, a new modern way forward. For an example, there is a sketch on page 45 called the “Practice Illustration”. This illustration features a group of girls practicing some sport on the field. Heavy, dark outlines are used throughout the drawing and the girls are depicted roughly shoving each other. This is the opposite way a woman would be depicted from previous decades. Clark also uses defined yet ghostly forms to draw the faces of the girls playing. Some are depicted smiling, others frowning, and the rest don’t really have a face. (Fallows, 45) The contrast between dark heavy lines and the lightly drawn faces, show the pull and tug that existed in being a New Woman. What makes this item interesting is that it solely focused on women outside the sphere of domesticity. I believe that this is representative of the New Woman Movement. It shows the movement from training in the home to in the job force. It also shows the beginnings of the first wave of feminism. For an example, Fallows describes students’ attitudes towards Smith College. She says that “…a student wish[es] to be the best kind of college woman, instead of some weak imitation of a college man.”(Fallow, 41) Here she establishing that women’s colleges are just as prestigious and valid as men’s colleges. She emphasizes this by using strong language like “weak imitation”. She also breaks down the myths of women’s colleges. She continues saying that “College is not a cloister, to develop a race of nuns. It opens up to a girl many new connections with her fellow-beings.” (Fallow, 41) Fallow is highlighting the positives of being a part of a women’s college by first debunking the myth and then providing what women’s colleges do instead.

Description An account of the resource The image is accompanied by an article talks about the technology that the United States had started to implement in their battleships. The article was written by “An Officer In The Service”, but it is clear that the writer has an in depth background in the history of the US Navy. I am not surprised that the writer chose to stay anonymous considering the numerous Pacific campaigns that were taking place. In the late 1890s and early 1900s, the US was actively involved in few different conflicts. The article that goes along with the image also seems to be hinting at the growth of the US as a major military power and that the US is starting to hold its own internationally. The civil war marked the first use of iron-armored ships in the US, and less that 40 years later, the US fleet is comprised of almost entirely steel ships. Rather than the ships of the past, these warships were built with the single purpose of engaging enemy targets. That combined with engines means that the speed of naval warfare has also significantly increased. As shown in the image, there is a stark contrast between the older ships on the left and the newer ones on the right. Not only is the Navy developing a larger fleet, but they are working to stay on the technical front of warfare.

Title A name given to the resource St. Cloud Hotel, New York. Westminster Hotel, New York. Cosmopolitan Hotel, New York. Hotel Brunswick, New York Description An account of the resource This primary source is from Asher and Adams Atlas set and gives an overview of four of the newest and most luxurious hotels in New York City in 1875 and demonstrates how progression of the period was clearly represented in hotels. For example, the St. Cloud Hotel provides the latest technology with an elevator, steam heat, hot and cold water but also attractive amenities such as a barber shop and Billard room. The Cosmopolitan Hotel contained a telegraph office, railroad ticket office, barber shop and news office to provide ultimate convenience for customers. The primary locations of all of these hotels also served as an attractive selling point. For example, the Westminster Hotel was in walking distance to Gramercy Park, Broadway and the Academy of Music. This source provides a perspective of what was considered new and attractive to travelers in this time period. Travelers were looking to have as many amenities at their fingertips as they could, and they wanted to be surrounded by all of the comforts necessary to feel like they could escape from the city within their hotel. This is a common theme in Martin Dressler’s character as he is an expert of combining the new and the old, the exotic and familiar.

Title A name given to the resource Broadway & Ann Description An account of the resource This is a lithograph of the intersection of Broadway and Ann Street, which is an intersection right before the location of City Hall. I found this fascinating because it was done by a German born immigrant, which helps emphasize how people viewed NYC and began to understand it. This depiction features many significant structures of the time including, Trinity Church, St. Paul's Chapel, and Barnum’s American Museum. I think this is significant because of the many occurrences Broadway has had in the works we have read. I think the main thing to take away from this image is the underlying context. In this lithograph, one of he most popular museums of the time is featured, which emphasizes that entertainment connotation of Broadway. In today's world if one hears Broadway they think of entertainment and various stage shows. I think is significant because back in the 1850's people were coming looking for opportunity and with the city constantly growing with bustling immigrants and new structures the opportunities became endless. I also believe the details of the people in the picture are significant as they are not only featured in an extremely busy intersection, but also displayed in an extremely wealthy manner. Many of the works we have read have discussed the wealth of that era and the expectations that were associated with it, but there was also this hidden poverty that was present at the time and is now beginning to be introduced in our readings (“Mrs. Manstey’s View”). Finally, even more details of the people I noticed were the ways they were dressed, which was proper. The women were expected to wear extravagant dresses, while the men strutted around in their top hats and long coats. I just think this also plays off of the gender roles of the time and how women were expected to be proper and stay home, while the men did the work in the bustling city - this also being related to the Old Maid by Edith Wharton.

Title A name given to the resource Brandreth’s Pill's Ad, <em>Harper's Weekly</em>, 1858 Description An account of the resource The item chosen is an advertisement from Harpery’s Weekly that presents a new medication called “Brandreth’s Pill”. The advertisement claims that the pill prevents and protects an individual from getting Yellow Fever. It includes the specific symptoms one should be aware of in order to take Brandreth’s Pill. Examples of symptoms are delirium and dizziness. The audience for the advertisement is anyone who was either demonstrated these symptoms or is living with someone with Yellow Fever. I can ascertain that the creator of the pill, Benjamin Brandrteth, firmly believed that Yellow Fever was caused by “impure blood”. This is clear when he says “the very cause of these difficulties will be speedily expelled from the bowels and circulation”. That is to say that the Brandreth’s Pill was invented in order to cleanse the blood and not let Yellow Fever develop. The advertisement depicts a negative view of New York of the 1850’s, much like Foster did. New York City is described as a place that was suffering from disease and illness. At the time, there was an extreme increase in immigration and therefore the growth of major cities, like New York City. The health system was heavily affected and in particular there were outbreaks of Yellow Fever in New York during 1855 and 1856. One quote that stood out to me was the following, “another and yet another paroxysm may occur”. The author of this advertisement emphasizes that a sudden outburst of emotion may occur not only one time but multiple times. He is underlining the fact that one should not be worried if multiple expressions of emotions occur after taking the pill. This is interesting to me because even though it was over 100 years ago, the advertisement still provides side effects that come along with taking Brandreth’s Pill.

Title A name given to the resource Easily Earned Description An account of the resource This advertisement caught my attention with it’s claim. The title “Easily Earned” refers to the sofa that would be given to anyone who could sell 52 boxes of toilet soaps. The ad also talks about a catalog that could be sent as well. This ad seems very similar to a modern pyramid scheme to get people to sell an item with a reward if the sell enough of the item. Not only does this advertisement remind me of a pyramid scheme, it is one of the first advertisements pertaining to a mail order catalog.

Shanley published in The Atlantic Monthly recounts the details of Coney Island in 1878. The article refers to Coney Island as being one of the "least aristocratic features of the great suburb (Long Island)." At this time there were few places where the laboring class could go for a vacation as most recreational activities were reserved for the rich, either outright or by the shear cost of such activities. The article goes on to explain the name and environment of the location before launching into and account of a typical day there. The article being written for those who had money to purchase the publication ends by denouncing Coney Island for a "fashionable New York family."

Title A name given to the resource Lenox Avenue: A Symbol of Hope Description An account of the resource “We have to-morrow Bright before us Like a flame” (663, Hughes) This quote from one of Langston Hughes’ many poems expresses the hope that African Americans have during the time of the Harlem Renaissance. Hughes refers to this bright future as a “flame” because it symbolizes a new life or the ability to stray away from old traditions and create a new identity. This specific image is an exact replica of the flame that Hughes is referring to because it is a photo of Lenox Avenue in Harlem, which was known to be one of the most booming streets during the Harlem Renaissance. In other words, this photo of Lenox Avenue depicts a sense of hope and promise in that the African people will continue to shape the United States in a positive way.

Title A name given to the resource Laws for Granting Citizenship to Women Subject The topic of the resource American Citizenship for Immigrant Women Description An account of the resource "Vos Yede Froy Darf Visen Vegen Birgershaft", which directly translates to "What Every Woman Should Know about Citizenship." The book is written in both Yiddish and English. This information booklet was made in 1926 by the National Council of Jewish Women, who issued it as a citizenship guide for immigrant women. The Council focused on the purpose of the booklet to serve as an aid for Jewish women who were unmarried to learn how to speak English, secure their American citizenship and find a place of employment. This group was founded in the year 1893, with the intentions of spreading Judaism among its other members and the United States by means of social reform, especially in New York of all places. They also wanted to give immigrant women opportunities for a better education and to properly explain any laws allowing them to gain their citizenship in the United States, depending on whether they were married or not. I saw that this booklet could of very well been something that would be in the possession of the fictional, yet realistic character Gitl from "Yekl: A Tale of a New York Ghetto." Being a woman freshly introduced to an entirely new country with various social norms and ways of life that were completely different than their own, this aid could immensely helped a woman like Gitl into this society. Even with her being recently divorced from "Dzake," the booklet would of helped her as she transitioned to gaining her legal citizenship so she could seek proper employment to take care of her son Yosele.

Title A name given to the resource House of Prostitution Description An account of the resource Census workers did an in-depth survey on American households and published their findings. In the column on “profession, occupation or trade”, certain houses of prostitution. The specific households of the prostitutes were published and were 114 West 26th St. and 116 West 26th St. It seems interesting to me that these residents would be published to the public. It is a violation of their privacy but these addresses were probably disclosed so that people in NYC would not go near these locations.

Title A name given to the resource A New York Day: Night Description An account of the resource This series of illustrations was created by Charles Dana Gibson and is titled “A New York Day: ‘Night’” (573-577). This was featured in the November monthly issue of Scribner’s Magazine. Charles Dana Gibson was a famous graphic artist who is best known for the iconic image of the beautiful and dependent American woman. This is a series of illustrations that demonstrates a series of events that could typically take place on an evening in New York City. This was one of the reasons I chose this series of images; the women are displayed in with elaborate dresses, clean hairstyles, and have a notion of confidence. This is illustrated on the title page of the series as the woman is dressed so properly and has her head slightly tilted up, showing she is independent and confident in herself. The following illustration is the girls meeting the musician they will watch at the show and it is evident they are somewhat enthused by him. The second illustration features five men in “The Club,” which I would consider a gentlemen’s club where men would discuss women and drink for leisure. The final illustration depicts the men surrounding one of the women that looks as if she was a performer and it is almost as if they are looking as her like a piece of meat, or as if they do not care for her at all. I found this series of images to relate to many of the details within Maggie: A Girl of the Streets. First, I would say the women represent the world Maggie was fascinated with and what drew her to the life with Pete. She was so engrossed in the dresses and the performers she saw because it was this whole different life to her, which I think was common thought of this era in New York. I believe there was a huge separation of class spheres, which was evident through the manners and dress of the people. I also felt this series of images depicted the idea of Pete, as he was never really enthused with the plays they attended and also was engulfed in this idea of being a man of spotless reputation. In a way it was also as if they people of this time could hide their insecurities through the way they dress. Therefore, I feel this was a strong reputation Maggie and Pete.
