A Portion of the People

Three Hundred Years of Southern Jewish Life

By: McKissick Museum

In the year 1800, South Carolina was home to more Jews than any other place in North America. As old as the province of Carolina itself, the Jewish presence has been a vital but little-examined element in the growth of cities and towns, in the economy of slavery and post-slavery society, and in the creation of American Jewish religious identity. The record of a landmark exhibition that will change the way people think about Jewish history and American history, A Portion of the People: Three Hundred Years of Southern Jewish Life presents a remarkable group of art and cultural objects and a provocative investigation of the characters and circumstances that produced them. The book and exhibition are the products of a seven-year collaboration by the Jewish Historical Society of South Carolina, the McKissick Museum of the University of South Carolina, and the College of Charleston. Edited and introduced by Theodore Rosengarten, with original essays by Deborah Dash Moore, Jenna Weissman Joselit, Jack Bass, curator Dale Rosengarten, and Eli N. Evans, A Portion of the People is an important addition to southern arts and letters. A photographic essay by Bill Aron, who has documented Jewish

Row Upon Row

Sea Grass Baskets of the South Carolina Lowcountry

By: Dale Rosengarten,McKissick Museum

An in-depth, illustrated history of South Carolina's Lowcountry baskets Coiled grass baskets are icons of Gullah culture. From their roots in Africa, through their evolution on Lowcountry rice plantations, to their modern appreciation as art objects sought by collectors and tourists, these vessels are carriers of African American history and the African-inspired culture that took hold along the coast of South Carolina and neighboring states. Row Upon Row, the first comprehensive history of this folk art, remains a classic in the field. The fourth edition brings the narrative into the twenty-first century, with a chapter describing current challenges to the survival of the time-honored tradition. The artform continues to adapt to the changing consumer market, the availability of materials, economic opportunities, and most recently, the widening of the highway near the majority of basket stands. As globalization transforms the world, the coiled basket in all its iterations retains its power as a local symbol of individual identity and cultural distinction. A preface is provided by Jane Przybysz, executive director of the McKissick Museum at the University of South Carolina.

Overman

Overman

By: Matthew Martin Mckissick

Finally, the vision of Fredrick Nietzsche’s Overman (Superman) has come into being. Unfortunately, the lives of many males are constantly destroyed and persecuted for their primitive behaviors and sexual urges. How will Overman (Superman) deal with his own human needs and desires of the flesh, and what consequences will he face for entering the dark side of his ultimate fate and the curse of fetishes? This book is about earliest man (caveman) evolving to become today’s supreme modern man. Warning: For adults only. Not recommended for the spiritual or righteous. “While there may be differences in nations, cultures, and family bloodlines, in the creator’s understanding, all beings, especially humans, are all connected into one family from the same maker. Therefore, even though emotionally filled beings in pride and enthusiasm are credited and responsible for creating endless ideas and things of beauty, they’re also responsible for separating and causing inhuman acts and conflicts that killed their fellow beings, just as Cain did to Abel.”
