You are here: Home Teaching and Learning Strategies Technology in Education Chaim Potok's My Name is Asher Lev, Art History, and Images from the World Wide Web By Alan Warhaftig The relationship of technology and art in secondary education is a work in progress. I am neither a technologist nor an art teacher, but I do teach at the Los Angeles Unified School District's Visual Arts Magnet and have thought a lot about the place of computers and the internet in K-12 education. While effective practices for use of computers and the internet in K-12 classrooms have yet to be defined, some uses are of obvious value including access to images spanning the entire history of art. I learned just how valuable this could be when I read Chaim Potok's My Name is Asher Lev with a ninth grade English class. ( Selected web sites are listed at the end of the article. It is the story of a Hasidic Jewish boy in Brooklyn beginning in the 1950s, a community traumatized by the Holocaust and focused on the plight of Jews in Stalin's Soviet Union. Asher Lev is an art prodigy in a community that has no place for modern art and no role for the artist. His father, who travels for the Rebbe and undertakes perilous missions to rescue Jews from the USSR, regards Asher's art as silly. He wants his son to excel at Torah and in the academic subjects.

Interviews Chaim Potok Giving Shape to Turmoil: A Conversation with Chaim Potok By Michael J. Cusick I t would strike some as odd that an ordained rabbi who served a chaplaincy in the Korean War, later earned a Ph.D. in philosophy from an Ivy League university, earned a reputation as a world-class Judaic scholar, and wrote several best-selling novels along the way, would be known for his mapmaking abilities. But Chaim Potok has spent the majority of his life doing just that-mapping out the terrain of his Jewish past in novels which have transported both Jew and non-Jew into fictional worlds which transcend religious boundaries. Perhaps best known as the author of The Chosen-which in 1981 was made into a movie starring Robby Benson and Rod Steiger, Potok is the author of eleven novels, two children's books, and several works of nonfiction including the critically acclaimed Wanderings: Chaim Potok's History of the Jews. "Long ago, in The Chosen," he writes, "I set out to draw a map of the New York world through which I once journeyed. It was to be a map not only of broken streets, menacing alleys, concrete-surfaced backyards, neighborhood schools and stores . . . a map not only of the physical elements of my early life, but of the spiritual ones as well..."

Saturday, July 24, 2004 Chaim Potok - Jewish Novelist Unparalleled The most important works of fiction about the American Jewish experience in the past 100 years have been written by Chaim Potok. He tackled the serious questions, such as the ones about Judaism vs art in My Name Is Asher Lev. I think Potok makes later Jewish movelists look like dilettantes with their focus on the personal and their lack of tackling of the big issues, such as Biblical Criticism, Archeology and its challenge to traditional faith. Smharya writes: "You've made a very important point. Why do you think things are this way?" Luke replies: "Because of the growing narcissism of the post '60s world. Post '60s Jewish fiction deals principally with what makes the protagonists of their stories feel good (whether it is through secular or religious means, it still boils down to stories about individuals seeking their own happiness rather wider truths and a concern for how their behavior and choices affect the world). I converted to Judaism because I thought it was the best vehicle to making a better world." posted by YourMoralLeader @ 9:40 PM About Me Name: Luke Ford Location: Los Angeles, California, United States
