The area south of Coolidge Corner is a virtual Jewish world — though with a definite New England stamp. The delis, bakeries and butcher shops are hous- ed in neat, Victorian buildings. Patrons in these places display typical New England restraint. Inside Kupel's Bake and Bagel Shop, for example, the lines are long, but the customers wait quietly and patiently to choose from the variety of bagels offered. They won't go hungry on Harvard Street. Up the street, there are Baigels by Bager- man, Wulf's Fish Market, and a sign announcing that Ruth's Kitchen is coming soon, featuring New England glatt-kosher cuisine. ADELPI ©1989 Delta Air Lines, Inc. Brookline Beckons all by Jewish artists, both American and Israeli. Across the street, the Israel Book Shop sells an extensive range of Yiddish and Hebrew books, plus Jewish newspapers and ritual objects. Posters in the window an- nounce the Jewish Theater of New England, the "Dial a Jewish Story" program of Chabad House of Boston, and the Ulpan Institute of Brookline. Down the street, Rubin's Kosher Delicatessan offers the chance to enjoy another activity, eating ethnic food. The oldest operating kosher restaurant in Boston is a Brookline landmark. Inside, customers enjoy their corned beef sandwiches and strudel as they watch the lively street life outside. These patrons in- clude observant Jews wearing yarmulkes, college students, tweedy Bostonians — an eclectic mix that typifies the diversity of modern Brookline, the new England town with a distinctive Jewish identity. Strasbourg Displays Rebirth Of Judaism RUTH ROVNER Special to The Jewish News 0 n Avenue de la Paix in Strasbourg, the synagogue is an im- pressive sight. Its striking bronze menorah and intricate Star of David design gleam in the sunshine. Surrounded by large, leafy trees and set in a spacious park, the synagogue dominates the corner, its Jewish symbols proud and prominent. More than a dramatic sight, however, this synagogue represents the rebirth of a once proud Jewish communi- ty almost entirely destroyed by the Nazis. For the Jewish traveler to Strasbourg, the major city in the province of Alsace, the Synagogue de la Paix should be the first stop. It is im- pressive evidence of how Jews in a European war-torn city have rebuilt their communi- ty with energy and hope. Strasbourg, which is six miles from the German border, suffered devastating losses during World War II. By 1940, it was occupied by the Nazis. Jews were deported. And everything Jewish was destroyed. The Nazis destroyed the beautiful old synagogue on Quai Kleber, which had been standing since 1898. They desecrated many small shuls, burned Jewish books, destroyed Jewish art, ran- sacked Jewish archives and discarded precious ritual objects. By 1945, virtually nothing remained of a Jewish com- munity that had begun in the Middle Ages and become a center of Jewish culture for all France. Yet today, Strasbourg is called the Jerusalem of France. It has numerous yeshivot, Talmud Torahs and Akiva, a Jewish day school, with 700 students enrolled. The University of Strasbourg has a chair in modern Hebrew, and many chief rab- bis of France since the war have come from Strasbourg. The main synagogue is a symbol of this rebirth. It is the pride of the 12,500 Jews of Strasbourg and an example of unusual cooperation bet- ween the Jewish community and secular government. Con- secrated in 1958, it was fund- ed by the French government, the City Council, the Con- ference on Jewish Material Claims against Germany and numerous local donors. "When France was liberated, many French peo- ple felt some guilt become some — but not most — local citizens had cooperated with the Nazis," explains Dr. Yves Continued on Page 78
