Louis Barnett Abrahams (3 October 1839 – 3 June 1918) was the head master of the Jews' Free School, London; born at Swansea, South Wales, 1842. He was educated in the Jews' School at Manchester, whither his family had removed in 1845. In 1854 he was indentured to Moses Angel at the Jews' Free School, London, as a pupil-teacher, and in 1864 he was appointed principal instructor of English. For the next twenty years Abrahams had charge of nearly all the teaching staff of the boys' department of the school. In 1884 he was appointed vice-master. When, in December 1897, failing health compelled the retirement of Moses Angel, Abrahams was elected head master of the school, while Moses Angel became principal; on the death of the latter in September 1898, Abrahams succeeded him. Abrahams was a graduate of the London University, and one of the founders of the Jewish Educational Board and of the Teachers' Training Committee. On the establishment of the ''Jewish Record'', in 1868, Abrahams acted as its first editor. He was also a frequent contributor to other Jewish periodicals. ==Works== * ''A Manual of Scriptural History for Jewish Schools and Families'', London, 1882 * ''A Translation of the Prayer-Book for School Use'' * ''A Chronological History of England.'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Louis Barnett Abrahams」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
