وصف المحتوى

The collection contains materials of the Jewish Zionist fraternity “Hasmonea” (also“Hasmonaea”) which was active at the University of Tartu (Estonia) from 1923 to 1940. The collection includes the fraternity’s charter in Estonian, dated 1938. This is a short charter that discusses the fraternity’s activities at the university, proclaiming the fraternity’s goal as the “mental, cultural and physical development of its members” and not mentioning Zionist movement explicitly. The collection also includes comments on the charter, dated 1936-1939, including a description of the fraternity’s goals and rules. The “Hasmonea” was a Zionist-revisionist fraternity whose aim, inter alia, was to guide students in the development of national life and the Zionist movement. Among earlier materials in the collection there are invitations send to “Hasmonea” from the Tartu municipality and the County Anti-tuberculosis Society. The society invites “Hasmonea” members to participate in the “Days of the white flowers” (Valgelillepäeva) which raised funds for tuberculosis patients; there are invitations dated 1926-1928, 1930, 1931 and 1934. The collection also holds handwritten accounting documents dated 1939-1940: a cash book with general accounting information and a “reskontro” book containing information on personal accounts. The latter accounting book also contains recordings of financial operations made by the “Hasmonea’s” Alumni Association in Riga.
