Reviewed by Frederic Cople Jaher in Hispanic American Historical Review. Several essays in subsequent sections are worthy of mention. Rachel Frankel’s exploration of Jewish synagogues and cemeteries in “Jodensavaane,” a Jewish settlement in the Dutch colony of Suriname, combines the practical and theoretical, the passionate and analytic, in a stimulating speculation on the anthropological, historical, and religious meaning of the colonial architecture in that place.

The annex site is a plaza set on a slab raised slightly above pavement level. Twelve cylindrical elements, the tallest twenty-five feet in height, define a circular enclo­sure within the plaza. The cylinders contain borings taken from the soil beneath the plaza. Encased in trans­parent plastic, they tell the entire archaeological history of the site, augmented by inscriptions taken from Afri­can philosophy and the history of New York’s early Af­rican community. At night the borings are illuminated from below by lights placed within the boring holes. The edge of the plaza slab is also lit.
