"The Life of the Synagogue" from the William A. Rosenthall Judaica Collection (original) (raw)

College of Charleston Special Collections, 2015

Abstract

Curated by Samuel D. Gruber, Sarah Glover, and Amy Lazarus, the online exhibit contains 76 items selected from the William A. Rosenthall Judaica Collection at the College of Charleston, one of the largest accessible collections of imagery related to synagogues and other aspects of Jewish life and culture around the world. The exhibit is divided into nine sections, exploring topics ranging from synagogue building and dedications to the celebration of life cycle events and festivals to the varied contributions of women. These images offer a broad understanding of the history of synagogue architecture and design, in addition to shedding light on the lives, customs, and religious practices of the people within the four walls of the synagogue.
