Her Jewish writings, spanning her entire career, speak to chief issues in Jewish-American cultural life. In three volumes of poetry, she shaped her voice against Christian conver-sionist designs and the Protestant New England literary scene. Lazarus meshed her understanding of Western literary practices with her knowledge of Jewish liturgical traditions. She also explored her historical conception of Judaism in relation to other major civilizations. Her fierce responses to the Russian pogroms of the 1880s and her assumption of prophetic roles mark her as a fine, inventive poet. Her increasingly strident tones and her complex cultural perceptions combine with sharp auditory imagination and shrewd psychological strategies. Lazarus remains the boldest of Jewish anti-Christian satirists.

Lazarus, Emma (1849-1887), poet and essayist Born in New York, New York, on July 22, 1849, Emma Lazarus early displayed a talent for poetry, and her first book, Poems and Translations (1867), was praised by Ralph Waldo Emerson. She dedicated her next book, Admetus and Other Poems (1871), to him. These and subsequent volumesthe prose Alide: An Episode of Goethe's Life (1874), a verse tragedy, The Spagnoletto (1876), and a fine translation of the Poems and Ballads of Heinrich Heine (1881)were cosmopolitan in flavor, sometimes technically excellent, but lacking in real distinction. About 1881, with the wave of immigration to the United States from European and Russian ghettoes, Lazarus, herself of Sephardic Jewish stock, took up the defense of persecuted Jews and of Judaism and began to work for the relief of immigrants. She published numerous essays in the Century and the weekly American Hebrew on the pogroms and persecutions and the often equivocal attitude of the Christian West. She was an early advocate of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. In 1882 she produced Songs of a Semite

EMMA LAZARUS Poet Emma Lazarus was an American writer of Portugese-Jewish ancestry whose 1883 poem, "The New Colossus," is inscribed on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty. Lazarus grew up in a prosperous Jewish family in New York and began writing poems as a teenager. In 1886 her first collection, Poems and Translations , was published by her father. She attracted the attention and support of Ralph Waldo Emerson , and soon found herself a member of the elite literary circles of New York City. In the 1880s Lazarus was moved by the news of the Russian and Eastern European persecution of Jews to become more active as an advocate for Jewish immigrants. She published many well-received poems and essays, including "The New Colossus," now one of the most often quoted poems in U.S. history, especially the lines "Give me your tired, your poor, / Your huddled masses yearning to be free, / The wretched refuse of your teeming shore." Upon returning to the U.S. from a trip to Europe, Lazarus, who was suffering from Hodgkin's disease, died at the age of 38. Her poem was placed on the Statue of Liberty in 1903. Her other works include Admetus and Other Poems The Spagnoletto: A Drama in Verse Songs of a Semite (1882) and the novel Alide: An Episode in Goethe's Life Other 19th century literary figures include Harriet Beecher Stowe Julia Ward Howe and Emily Dickinson Emma Lazarus Good biographical pages illustrated with photos Emma Lazarus, 1849-1887

Judaism 101 A Glossary of Basic Jewish Terms and Concepts Emma Lazarus Emma Lazarus was born on July 22, 1849 to Moses and Esther Lazarus in New York City. She came from an old family of Spanish Jews, but her initial reaction to Jewish ritual and customs was not positive. When her old religious teacher asked her for a poem for his hymn book, she refused, saying “I will gladly assist you as far as I am able; but that will not be much. I shall always be loyal to my race but I feel no religious fervor in my soul.” Instead, she turned to Transcendentalism, a distinctively American philosophy, that found literary expression in the poems of Ralph Waldo Emerson. She maintained a long correspondence with that American literary icon. But after staying for a week in Concord at the invitation of Emerson and his wife, she seems to have left Transcendentalism behind. In 1881, a bloody pogrom broke out in Russia, which produced a large stream of refugees. Emma met with them on Ward’s Island in the East River, along with a group of Jewish women. Expecting them to find them of a low class, she was amazed to find among them “men of brilliant talents and accomplishments – the graduates of Russian universities, scholars of Greek as well as Hebrew ... and burning with zeal in the cause of their wretched co-religionists.” This first encounter with reviled and persecuted Jews changed Emma’s life. She began to identify strongly with the Jewish People. She became a defender of Jews against anti-Semites, and became active in many Jewish causes. She began to sing of freedom –
