Chicago Tribune article
editI would appreciate it if someone could provide a copy of this article. I think anyone with access to proquest's historic newspaper archives should have access. Also, if you have such access, any other articles about Elias Abraham Rosenberg that a proquest general search finds would be great (I doubt you'll be inundated; there's very few sources out there on this guy). Thanks.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 05:56, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

For Rosenberg, as you said, there isn't much.
Sources for Elias Abraham Rosenberg | |
Turkienicz, A. (1999, Sep 09). Hawaii's Jewish presence: Life and faith amid sun, sea. Canadian Jewish News, pp. 42–43. | "Rabbi Magid pointed out that Temple Emanu-El houses a Torah and pointer that were brought to Hawaii from San Francisco in 1886 by Elias Abraham Rosenberg, who then presented them to King Kalakaua. A plaque on the temple's walls states that Rosenberg ingratiated himself with the king and became something of a royal soothsayer." |
Kramer, L. (2011, Aug 11). Sunshine and Judaism on Oahu. Canadian Jewish News, pp. 37. | "One of the reasons people come here is to escape," explains Alice Tucker, 78, a member of Temple EmanuEl, Oahu's Reform synagogue. Tucker and her husband settled permanently in Oahu in 1961 and raised their three children on the island. But there were Jews in Oahu as early as the 1850s, traders from England, Germany and the United States. One of them was Elias Abraham Rosenberg of San Francisco, who arrived in Hawaii in 1886 with a Torah scroll and a silver filigreed yad in his luggage. Though his stay on the island was only six months, Rosenberg made quite the impression on the reigning monarch, King Kalakaua. He spent time teaching the king to read Hebrew and gained the monarch's trust. Political unrest on the island prompted Rosenberg to leave in June 1887, but prior to his departure, he and the king exchanged gifts. The king received the Torah scroll and yad, while Rosenberg left Hawaiian shores with a royal golden medallion and a silver cup. Rosenberg died a month later, but over the years that followed, the scroll and yad gradually made their way to Temple Emanu-El, where they remain to this day, safely ensconced in a glass cabinet. |

- The different national editions of that bookstore omit somewhat different pages from the online version, though they all seem to omit pp.385-6. If those aren't critical, compare the domains (.co.uk vs .com vs .ie vs .ca vs .com.au vs .co.nz vs .co.za) and you'll find all the rest of that chapter between them. If those two pages are critical it looks at OCLC 318280808 that most university libraries will have it. It also appears that the 16 "editions" are just reprints and e-book versions with unchanged pagination if that helps. LeadSongDog come howl! 15:57, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Sourcing the Meermin

(1995), The Migrant Farmer in the History of the Cape Colony, 1657-1842, Ohio University Press, ISBN 9780821410905 – could someone please see if they can extract or scan a definition of South African/Afrikaans/18th century Dutch "burgher" from this book, with page numbers obviously? A bit of chronology would be great too, if poss!
- Suggested page numbers to look at per this Google Books search are 2, 8 & 149. Or, you might be able to offer a better source – online dictionaries that I've seen don't look very helpful. Cheers. Nortonius (talk) 12:52, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
- Here is the Oxford English Dictionary's South-Africa specific definition of burgher:
- 4. S. Afr. A Dutch-speaking citizen of the Cape Colony, the Natal or Transvaal (South African) Republics, or the Orange Free State before the advent of British rule. Also attrib. Now hist.
- 1879 B. Frere et al. Speech Cape Town 24 To encourage the brave Burghers and Southey's Volunteers to do their best to put an end to the war on the northern border of the Colony.

- Ah, thanks again GabrielF, you've found the right burgher(!) but actually it's the use of the word "citizen" here that I'm trying to penetrate, in connection with burghers: it seems anachronistic to describe 18th century burghers in the Cape Colony as citizens, since they were on "company land" belonging to the Dutch East India Company. I'm wondering if they might have been enfranchised as citizens by the company somehow, or perhaps they were contracted to the company, rather than, at an opposite extreme, perhaps merely tenants, at the company's whim. All help gratefully received! :o) Nortonius (talk) 16:29, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

- Thanks! :o) Nortonius (talk) 14:16, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
- I skimmed the book and it looks like this was a somewhat complicated question and van der Merwe starts out using the term "free burgher" on page 1 without explicitly defining it. It looks like the free burghers lived under some stringent restrictions - the company defined what they could and couldn't grow, what prices their crops would sell for, etc. As to your specific question about land ownership, van der Merwe says on page 51:

- Here is the Oxford English Dictionary's South-Africa specific definition of burgher:
“ | The first free burghers at the Cape received in full ownership as much land as they could bring under cultivation within three years. The company fairly faithfully pursued this principle of allocating private land intended for agriculture until the end of the seventeenth century. Such land was later surveyed and mapped, and the owners could lease it, sell it or bequeath it. The free burghers, however, kept livestock as well as practiced agriculture. Naturally, they could not maintain their livestock on their small individual farms, yet the government had made no provision for private grazing. In imitation of the common pasturage system, so familiar in Europe and also in vogue in certain parts of Holland, it was declared that the colonists could use the "entire country" as grazing land. | ” |
- I've uploaded the first 60 pages of the book here. Note that its 100MB. That should give you a much better sense of the chronology and the specific rights of the burghers. There's a lot of stuff, especially in the first 12 or so pages, about the company trying to prevent burghers from doing anything other than agriculture and about the burghers really struggling to make a living under the restrictive rules. Also note that the English translation was published in the 90s but the original material is from the 30s.GabrielF (talk) 21:55, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

- Ah. That explains the use of the older synonym (Taonius instead of Teuthowenia). Thanks for the Streenstrup and guess we'll have to pass on the scan. The 1976 publishing date might actually be good news as it means the newer articles I currently have are actually more up-to-date with regards to the life cycle.

Bee Vang
editHi! I'd like to develop Bee Vang or the Thao Vang Lor section of the Gran Torino character article. I would like:
- "Bee Vang finds vehicle for his acting talent." Providence Journal. January 26, 2009.
The URL was projo.com/movies/content/lb_Bee_Vang_01-26-09_TVD0B0S_v9.3307a0f.html , but it seems to redirect to the homepage, and there is no web.archive.org copy
Thanks, WhisperToMe (talk) 08:33, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
- On this page, it gives a quote from the article: "A week before shooting began in Detroit last summer, Vang learned he had won the role..." I found this Associated Press article containing that sentence. I think Providence Journal was just running the Associated Press article. Goodvac (talk) 17:44, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

The Independent
editI would like to request an assistance with regard to a dispute we have here: [200] I have a dispute with a user who doubts the existence of an article which was published in The Independent on March 5, 1992, because he is unable to find it by google search on the newspaper's website. However the website does not provide the full archive from 1992. I accessed this article via Lexis-Nexis, and in fact I posted a full copy at talk (temporarily, I will remove it in a few days due to copyright issues). Now this user needs to go to a library to do his own research. Assuming good faith, I believe he is unable to access a database like Lexis-Nexis, so I would like to ask someone who has an access to Lexis-Nexis to do an independent verification and confirm that the article could be found in that database. The name of the article is as follows:
The Independent, March 5, 1992. Helen Womack. Azeris hunted down and shot in the forest; Refugees and fresh graves confirm massacre by Armenians.
Thanks in advance for help. Grandmaster 19:52, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
- I have verified that article exists in the Lexis-Nexis database and is identical to the version you posted here. FYI: you posted the full text there on 9 March, and it is now 19 March, so please remove it from the talk page. If you need to refer back to it, just use a link to the old revision.

There is another article in volume 4 co-authored by Tian Bao-Lin: Some sedimentary characteristics of coal measures and factors controlling coal accumulation in carboniferous rocks in China. Let me know if you're interested in it. Volumes 1, 2 and 5 are held in a different library. I will attempt to check them. GabrielF (talk) 18:28, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

- This appears to be the "International Congress on Carboniferous Stratigraphy and Geology (9th : 1979 : Washington, D.C. and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign)" There appears to be a five-volume conference report here that might contain what you're looking for. I will try to find out. GabrielF (talk) 01:26, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
