Biographical/Historical Note
Elisabeth Jastrow was born into an assimilated Jewish, academic family in Berlin on October 7, 1890. Her father, Ignaz Jastrow,
was an economist, historian and professor of political science at the University of Berlin, as well as one of the founders,
and later the Rector, of the Berliner Handelhochschule. Through her father's position, the family was part of the cosmopolitan
world of intellectualism and salons that flourished in Berlin at this time, and the family moved within a circle of noted
artists and scholars in the humanities and social sciences.
Elisabeth's scholarly interests, however, focused on the ancient world. Beginning in 1909, she studied Greek and Roman archaeology,
Classical philology, art history and philosophy at the University of Berlin. The death of her professor, George Loeschcke,
in 1915 led her to shift her studies to the University of Heidelberg from which she received her doctorate in 1916 with a
dissertation on arulae, or terracotta altars, from Magna Grecia. During this time she was part of a group of art historians
and archaeologists centered around Margarete Bieber; a group which included Gerhart Rodenwaldt, Valentin Muller, Erwin Panofsky,
Walther Amelung, and Bernhard Schweitzer, among others.
In the years after completing her degree, Jastrow held several positions in archaeology and museum work. From 1916 to 1922
Jastrow first worked with the Archaeological Seminar of the University of Leipzig and then in the departments of Archaeology
and the History of Art at the University of Giessen. From 1922 to 1924 Jastrow took an extended study trip to Athens, where
she supported herself by working intermittently with the German Archaeological Institute and the German School of Athens.
She then moved on to Rome, where from 1925 to the spring of 1929, Jastrow was one of the collaborators working on the Realkatalog,
the massive catalog of the holdings of the library of the German Archaeological Institute (DAI) in Rome. Returning to Berlin
in 1929, Jastrow worked briefly with the German Archaeological Institute in Berlin and then moved on to the Archaeological
Seminary at the University of Marburg until early 1933. Jastrow left Marburg, having accepted an appointment to catalog the
collection of Greek vases at the Akademisches Kunst-Museum and Archaeological Seminary at the University of Bonn. This position
was to begin in May 1933, but before she could start, the restrictive legislation of April 1933 barred her from this job,
and essentially any other in her field in Germany.
Fortunately for Jastrow, at just this time in the United States the American Association of University Women (AAUW), growing
concerned with the situation in Germany, began devoting their resources to aiding displaced German scholars. Jastrow received
an International Fellowship from the AAUW for the academic year 1934/1935. This funding allowed her to resume her research
on terracottas and begin revising her dissertation for publication, and more importantly, it allowed her to leave Germany.
Jastrow based herself in Italy, but also traveled to Greece and the United States. Further funding supplied by Hetty Goldman
allowed Jastrow to continue her work after the AAUW fellowship ended. Her father's death in May 1937 brought Jastrow back
to Germany, but she found, after spending time settling his affairs, that her return to Italy had become problematic. So leaving
Germany again, Jastrow went first to Switzerland and then in October 1938 to the United States, where she officially immigrated
in June 1939 with a non-quota visa.
Jastrow arrived in the United States with limited economic resources but with the expectation that she could avail herself
of a network of connections. The family had earlier established an academic beachhead in the United States through her cousins,
Marcus, Morris and Joseph Jastrow. Indeed, calling on the help of family, German friends who had emigrated earlier, such as
Margarete Bieber, and American friends of her father, such as Frank Taussig, Jastrow was able to settle first in New York
and then in the Boston area. She initially supported herself with a variety of pick-up jobs: translating, teaching German,
doing museum photography and selling sculptural casts. Her new visa status in 1939, however, opened the possiblity of better
employment. She first held a one-year position as an instructor and lecturer at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Then Jastrow
was offered a contract position beginning January 1941 to teach art history at the Women's College of the University of North
Carolina at Greensboro.
Jastrow's initial trial period in Greensboro was successful and in the Fall of 1941, she was appointed as an Assistant Professor
in the Department of Art, where she taught the entire range of art history courses. Jastrow's feelings about her years in
Greensboro appear to have been rather conflicted. On the one hand, she knew that she was very fortunate to have escaped Germany
and to have received a faculty appointment in the United States. But on the other hand, she chafed at the heavy courseload,
the low pay, the inadequacies of the library, the weather and what she saw as the social and intellectual isolation of Greensboro.
Her research interests were subsumed by teaching duties. Jastrow was an archaeologist, not an art historian, and she spent
enormous amounts of time preparing her courses, the majority of which were outside her normal scope, and trying to acquire
the necessary visual materials for her classes. Jastrow also tried to supplement her low salary by moonlighting. She gave
private German and Italian lessons and continued doing sculptural commissions. Jastrow also continued working on the expanded
version of her dissertation as her teaching duties and finances allowed. Her correspondence makes clear her disappointment
with her situation. She coped by leaving Greensboro during vacations, whenever she was able, for the research facilities and
cosmopolitan offerings of New York, Boston and other cities. Yet, Jastrow would remain in Greensboro until her retirement
from the Women's College in 1961 and beyond.
At the same time Jastrow was settling into a new life in the United States, a great deal of her energy focused on getting
her mother out of Germany. Jastrow and her sister, Lotte Beate Jastrow Hahn, who had already left Germany for England and
then the United States, gradually convinced their mother that she must emigrate as well. Anna Seligmann Jastrow finally left
Germany for Cuba in October 1941. After a long delay in Havana, Anna arrived in July 1942, and she lived in Greensboro with
Elisabeth until her death in August 1943. In December 1944, Elisabeth Jastrow became an American citizen.
When Jastrow retired from the Women's College in 1961, she turned to travel and research. She again devoted herself to the
study of arulae and worked on her research and manuscript. By 1970, Jastrow had moved into the Maryfield Nursing Home outside
Greensboro, where she remained until her death in September 1981.

Scope and Content of Collection
The Elisabeth Jastrow papers document the life and scholarship of this émigré archaeologist who left Germany due to the anti-Semitic
policies of the Third Reich. Jastrow's papers both preserve a rich source source of data from a lifetime's research in Greek
archaeology and bear witness to her experiences as one of generation of German scholars who would see their lives altered
in previously unimaginable ways by the events of the first half of the twentieth century. Indirectly documented here is the
impact of larger events -- World War I, the changes in the status of Jews and women in German academia, the exclusionary and
destructive policies of the Third Reich, the stress of exile, and the full disclosure of the Holocaust -- that played themselves
out on the life and career of an individual scholar.
Elisabeth Jastrow's correspondence, which documents both the personal and professional aspects of her life, comprises a significant
portion of the archive. Professionally, Jastrow carried on a voluminous and substantive correspondence with the leading classical
archaeologists of her day, relating both to her specific research on terracottas and to general news of the archaeological
world. Equally significant, however, is the more personal aspect. Reaction to the policies of Nazi Germany resonates throughout
the correspondence from the 1930s and 1940s, even within her professional exchanges, chronicling the shock of people who had
believed themselves insulated from such catastrophe.
Jastrow's professional life is further documented by her research and writings, her teaching materials from the University
of North Carolina, Greensboro, and miscellaneous professional papers. Her research and writings, the largest portion of her
papers, include a comprehensive study of terracotta altars (arulae) in the Greek colonies in southern Italy and Sicily. Beginning
with her unpublished dissertation and continuing through a lifetime of research on the topic, Jastrow amassed material for
the publication of the definitive catalog and analysis of this object type. In the end, Jastrow was never able to publish
her comprehensive work, and the topic has subsequently been treated by Hellebora van der Meijden in
Terrakotta-Arulae aus Sizilien und Unteritalien (Amsterdam: Verlag Adolf Hakkert, 1993), yet Jastrow's manuscripts and notes still contain large quantities of raw data and
photographic documentation important for the study of arulae.
The final section of the archive comprises Elisabeth Jastrow's personal papers. Among the personal papers, two elements particularly
stand out. The first of these are materials relating to her father, Ignaz Jastrow, a noted economist and historian. The second
again returns to the role of Jastrow as a refugee from the Third Reich. Preserved here are the materials from Jastrow's twenty-four
years of legal proceedings against Germany for restitution and compensation for the damages inflicted on her family by the
Nazis.

Correspondence,
1911-1967, bulk 1934-1962
Physical Description:
4.8 linear feet
(12 boxes)
Scope and Content Note
This series contains circa 3400 letters and related items, including telegrams, postcards, notes, greeting cards, photographs
and drawings, exchanged with circa 480 correspondents. Although items received by Jastrow form the bulk of the material, her
side of the correspondence is also well represented by drafts and copies of her outgoing letters.
Found here is a wide range of correspondents, both professional and personal: her archaeological colleagues, an assortment
of German émigrés in various academic fields, students and fellow professors from Greensboro, as well as Jastrow's family
and longtime friends. The professional correspondence centers on Jastrow's research on arulae and demonstrates her ties within
the archaeological community. The personal letters provide a glimpse of Jastrow's conflicted feelings over her new life in
America. They document her attempts to obtain a better teaching position, her financial struggles to fund her research and
standard of living and her feelings of intellectual isolation in Greensboro. They also reveal the extent to which Jastrow
frequently turned to the resources of New York City for the personal details of her life, from medical care to shopping.
The correspondence in this series is arranged alphabetically by correspondent and then chronologically. Letters received from
and sent to unidentified correspondents are placed at the end of the series, as are isolated invitations and announcements
received by Jastrow. A brief description of the general nature of the exchange is included for each correspondent, with the
exception of those in which the handwriting is illegible. Correspondence relating to Jastrow's restitution claims after the
war is found below in Series V.

Series II.
Research and writings,
1874-1966, bulk 1916-1960
Physical Description:
15.8 linear feet
(28 boxes, 2 flat file folders)
Scope and Content Note
This series contains Jastrow's research and writings, including unpublished manuscripts, materials related to her published
articles, research project reports and lectures, as well as her original research materials on arulae. In 1916 Jastrow wrote
her dissertation on terracotta arulae from the Greek colonies in southern Italy and Sicily. This topic and related issues
of other forms of mold-made terracottas would remain the core of Jastrow's research, with only brief asides for minor research
in other areas. Jastrow's passion for this single topic led her to form a comprehensive resource for the study of arulae.
Two unpublished manuscripts on arulae form the initial portion of this series. These manuscripts include Jastrow's original
dissertation, which she was unable to publish during World War I and its aftermath, and an expanded reworking of the topic,
the product primarily of Jastrow's AAUW fellowship. Both of these manuscripts, as well as other notes and references in her
correspondence, indicate that Jastrow was revising and adding material as late as 1966.
Jastrow's research materials form the largest and final portion of the series. These include inventory cards, notes, a concordance,
and comparanda, as well as a group of offprints specifically related to her arula research. The extensive card file inventory
provides data for each arula known to Jastrow, often including current location, provenance, measurements, bibliography, photographs
and drawings. This data is further supplemented by Jastrow's more general notes and her collection of comparanda. The photographic
documentation is particularly rich, with over 1300 photographs of arulae and almost 500 photographs of stylistic and iconographic
comparanda.

Inventory cards,
undated
Scope and Content Note
The organization of the inventory cards presented here retains Jastrow's arrangement and box labeling. There are two sets
of cards. Four boxes labeled "A-D" appear to represent Jastrow's active research, while two boxes labeled "Old Reference Notes
A-B" represent an earlier stage. The arrangement of the cards in Boxes A, B and the early portion of Box C roughly follows
the section headings of Jastrow's "Tonaltärchen" manuscript. The cards in the later portion of Box C and the early portion
of Box D are organized by Dressel numbers, whereas the later portion of Box D is organized by current holding institution.
At the beginning of each box, there is some out of place material, presumably meant to be properly filed at a later point.

Notes,

Scope and Content Note
In addition to the inventory cards, Jastrow amassed large quantities of further notes related to her study of arulae. The
organization here again preserves Jastrow's arrangement of the material. Jastrow organized these notes in differing ways,
providing varied access to the material. Jastrow's different groupings include notes keyed to her manuscript and notes arranged
by current location, by the date of her research, primarily notebooks from research trips, and by topic.

Personal papers,

Physical Description:

(11 boxes, 1 flat file folder)
Scope and Content Note
Four main groups of material comprise Elisabeth Jastrow's personal papers. These include papers relating to her parents, Ignaz
Jastrow and Anna Seligmann Jastrow, to her legal claims for restitution and compensation after the war, and finally her general
personal papers.
Ignaz Jastrow (1856-1937) was a noted economist and historian. Preserved here are both material from his lifetime, such as
copies of his letters and daybooks, and posthumous material. The latter represents Elisabeth dealing with her father's estate,
such as the inventory of his library, as well as with publishers and authors in an effort to maintain her father's scholarly
legacy. Anna Seligmann Jastrow immigrated to the United States in 1942 and lived with Elisabeth until her death in 1943. Her
papers as preserved here are predominantly letters from that short interval, as well as a small amount of earlier correspondence
and family material which she brought with her to America.
In January 1947, Jastrow initiated legal proceedings involving claims against Germany for restitution and compensation. The
claims, which were based on her father's and mother's estates, included property, bank accounts and securities, discriminatory
fees and taxation, withholding of royalties and pension payments. The proceedings slowly worked their way through the system
over the next two decades to meet with only mixed success.
Jastrow's general personal papers include a wide range of material. The majority of these papers relate to her emigration
from Germany and to financial matters, but items such as personal photographs, lists of Christmas gifts, and address and birthday
books are also present.
