|
Abstract |
Yehuda Kaufman (1886-1976), an accomplished Judaic scholar, received a traditional rabbinic education in Eastern Europe, continued his education at the Sorbonne in Paris, then came to Canada in 1913 to become a disciple of Reuven Brainin, who was the editor of Montreal’s Yiddish-language daily, the Keneder adler. Kaufman continued his education at McGill University and simultaneously took up journalism. He assisted in the formation of Montreal’s Yidishe folks bibliotek (Jewish People’s Library), helped found the Yidishe folksshule (Jewish People’s School) on the basis of curricular equality of Hebrew and Yiddish, and served as the folksshule’s first principal. He was also secretary of the organizing committee of the Canadian Jewish Congress. He left Montreal in 1917.
