Dokumenta filatelističke judaike - izložba (katalog)

Abstract

U okviru svoje delatnosti čuvanja i prikupljanja građe o istoriji Jevreja na tlu bivše Jugoslavije, Jevrejski istorijski muzej je oformio i zbirku filatelije. To nije bilo sistematsko prikupljanje u cilju formiranja zbirke. No kako su pripadnici jevrejske zajednice godinama poklanjali mnoge zanimljive eksponate, tako se vremenom formirala specifična filatelistička zbirka vezana za judaiku. Deo te zbirke je sa filatelističke tačke gledišta manje značajan ali sa muzeološke i arhivističke tačke zanimljiv. Ova izložba je zanimljiva mešavina filatelističkih i muzeoloških koncepcija, kako u odabiru materijala tako i u prezentaciji. Načinjeni su ustupci i sa jedne i sa druge strane. Filatelisti su prihvatili da se izloži dosta dokumentarnog materijala koji je samo u širem smislu filatelistički, a muzeolozi su prihvatili da se, po njihovom shvatanju, izloži malo takvog materijala: na primer arhivska građa vezana za Holokaust u okviru koje su dopisnice i pisma iz raznih logora.

As one of its field of actions of preserving and collecting materials about the history of Jewish people on the grounds of ех Yugoslavia, Jewish historical museum formed a collection of philately. It was not systematical collecting for the purpose of forming a collection. But since the members of the Jewish community were donating to the museum many interesting exhibits during the years, interesting philatelist collection connected to Judaica was formed slowly. Part of this collection is from a philatelist point of view worthless but for the museum and for archivists interesting. This exhibition is an interesting mixture of philatelist and museum conceptions, regarding the selection of the materials and the presentation. Concessions have been made from both sides. Philatelists agreed to exhibit a lot of documents which were only in a wider sense part of the philatelist material, and the museum agreed; in the way they see it, to exhibit not a lot of that kind of material: e.g. archives connected to Holocaust where postcards and letters from different concentration camps can be found.
