Great ethnographic research lies not in the rigid execution of prescribed methodological procedures, but on the unrelenting cultivation of theoretical ideas. These contributors focus squarely on this neglected topic, providing reflexive accounts of how research decisions were made in light of emerging theoretical questions.The continuous generation of creative concepts is arguably the most importanEthnologyResearchEthnologyMethodologyEthnologyResearch.EthnologyMethodology.305.8/00723Kleinknecht Steven W(Steven William)1475382Puddephatt Antony J910254Shaffir William1107855MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910781195403321Ethnographies revisited3689582UNINA03774nam 22006494a 450 991096722020332120200520144314.00-292-79479-710.7560/714618(CKB)1000000000479633(OCoLC)319492736(CaPaEBR)ebrary10245671(SSID)ssj0000187470(PQKBManifestationID)11166164(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000187470(PQKBWorkID)10135170(PQKB)11115634(Au-PeEL)EBL3443203(CaPaEBR)ebr10245671(DE-B1597)587249(OCoLC)1286806475(DE-B1597)9780292794795(MiAaPQ)EBC3443203(EXLCZ)99100000000047963320060525d2007 ub 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrKindler of souls Rabbi Henry Cohen of Texas /by Henry Cohen II1st ed.Austin University of Texas Press20071 online resource (169 p.)

The list included nine Christians and Rabbi Henry Cohen of Galveston, Texas. Little-known today, Henry Cohen was a rabbi to be reckoned with, a man Woodrow Wilson called "the foremost citizen of Texas" who also impressed the likes of William Howard Taft and Clarence Darrow. Cohen's fleeting fame, however, was built not on powerful friendships but on a lifetime of service to needy Jews—as well as gentiles—in London, South Africa, Jamaica, and, for the last sixty-four years of his life, Galveston, Texas. More than 10,000 Jews, mostly from Eastern Europe, arrived in Galveston in the early twentieth century. Rabbi Cohen greeted many of the new arrivals in Yiddish, then helped them find jobs through a network that extended throughout the Southwest and Midwest United States. The "Galveston Movement," along with Cohen's pioneering work reforming Texas prisons and fighting the Ku Klux Klan, made the rabbi a legend in his time. As this portrait shows, however, he was also a lovable mensch to his grandson. Rabbi Henry Cohen II reminisces about his grandfather's jokes while placing the legendary rabbi in historical context, creating the best picture yet of this important Texan, a man perhaps best summarized by Rabbi Wise in the New York Times as "a soul who touches and kindles souls."Focus on American history series.RabbisTexasGalvestonBiographyReform JudaismTexasGalvestonGalveston (Tex.)Social conditionsGalveston (Tex.)BiographyRabbisReform Judaism296.8/341092BCohen Henry1927-327569MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910967220203321Kindler of souls4429794UNINA
