A great deal was said, and not without
justification, about Alan Dershowitz's
speech at the Jewish Book Fair ("Just
Revenge," Nov. 12) and perhaps to a
lesser degree about other eminent par-
ticipants and their books. However,
nothing was said of Professor Moshe
Pelli's Hebrew presentation.
He is the director for Jewish studies
at the University of Central Florida in
Orlando, a recipient of the Avraham
Friedman Award for Hebrew Culture
presented by Histadrut and one of the
founders and first editors of the

Pelli, a known authority in the area
of Hebrew haskala (enlightenment)
literature, came to speak about his
book The Hebrew Culture in America,

80 years of the Hebrew Movement in the
United States, which is, no doubt, the

definitive book on this important and
mostly unknown topic.
Although the all-Hebrew speaking
audience — among themNira Lev's
Sunday morning advanced Hebrew class
from Midrasha, which was moved to the
West Bloomfield Jewish Community
Center so they would not miss the lec-
ture — couldn't match the hundreds
who flocked to hear Dershowitz. They,
too, were treated to a most enlightening
and fascinating account of the history of
the Hebrew culture in America as well
as in our own neck of the woods. More-
over, among the books on the speaker's
table were two books in Hebrew: the
aforementioned one plus a more recent
book by Pelli, published by Israeli pub-
lishers Hakibutz-Ham'euchad, titled

Kinds of Genre in Haskala
Literature/Types and Topics.

Moshe Pelli's participation in the
Book Fair, by special invitation of Irwin
Shaw, who founded the Book Fair 48
years ago, was a momentous event for
the Hebrew-speaking public of metro
Detroit. Let it not be an isolated event,
but rather a lasting tradition. A Jewish
Book Fair without at least one Hebrew
lecture and some Hebrew books is a
contradiction in terms.
