Program for the "Free House of
Jewish Learning" (Freies Juedisches Lehrhaus) --
year two, first trimester (October-December 1920)
The classes offered at the Lehrhaus are divided into lectures
(Vorlesungen) and seminar-groups (Arbeitsgemeinschaften). In addition, there
a also a special lectures. The lectures fall into three subject areas, classical
Judaism (Das Klassische Judentum), historical Judaism (Das Historische Judentum),
and modern Judaism, (Das Moderne Judentum). Likewise, seminar-groups fall either
under "Introduction to the sources"(Zur Einfuerung in die Juedische
Quellen) or "Clarification and Implications"(Zur Klaerung und Anregung).
Each class is listed with its location, its full tuition fee, and its discount
fee. When the program was printed, most of the locations were still to be determined.
In FR's first year at the Lehrhaus, he taught three classes, one on "the
Jewish human being," beginning Hebrew, and one on "old answers to
new questions."
