Alexander Guttmann was born in 1904 in Budapest, Hungary to Michael and Camilla Guttmann.
His father was a renowned rabbi and scholar who was also the president of the Budapest
Theological Seminary. Guttmann received undergraduate degrees in Semitic languages from both
the University of Budapest and the University of Breslau. In 1924, he received his Ph.D.
from the University of Breslau.
Guttmann began his academic career in Berlin at the Liberal Teachers College and as a
lecturer in a local adult education program. He became a professor at the Hochschule fur die
Wissenschaft des Judentums in 1935. At the Hochschule, Guttmann had the exclusive privilege
to ordain rabbis. Several of these students, including Emil Fackenheim, Abraham Brody and
Abraham Joshua Heschel, later became prominent scholars at universities in America, Europe
and Israel. In 1940, Guttmann and his family accepted an invitation from Julian Morgenstern
to become a visiting Talmud professor at Hebrew Union College. He became a permanent member
of the faculty in 1943.
As a professor at HUC-JIR, Guttmann frequently acted as the campus responsa on halakkah issues for
President Nelson Glueck and other faculty. He was active in campus politics and a mentor to
several master's and Ph.D. candidates. Guttmann revised, created and ran the Talmud and
Codes courses for the forty years he was on faculty. Younger faculty members adapted and
created their own courses with the full cooperation and guidance of Guttmann.
Guttmann retired from the HUC-JIR faculty in 1978, although he continued to teach. In 1981, Guttmann
returned to Germany as a visiting professor of Talmud for one year at the newly formed
Hochschule fur Judische Studien in Heidelberg. Because of his teaching commitments to HUC-JIR he was unable to
teach sessions in succeeding years.
In June 1984, Sotheby's auctioned off an anonymous lot of Judaica books which had been
moved by Guttmann from the Hochschule to the United States during his escape from Nazi
Germany. Guttmann said that H. Veit Simon, director of the Hochschule, had given him the
property and the rights to dispose of it prior to his Berlin departure. However, the sale
was blocked by various survivor groups and ownership of the materials became a court case.
In 1985 a settlement was reached between the New York State Attorney General and the
Guttmann family resolving the dispute.
Guttmann authored a number of books starting with Das readktionelle und sachliche Verhaeltnis zwischen
Misna und Tosephet in 1928, which won the Israel Lewy Prize at the University of
Breslau. Other titles included Rabbinic Judaism in the Making, Studies in Rabbinic Judaism and Struggle over Reform in Rabbinic Literature During the
Last Century and A Half. He was an active contributor to several journals
including the Hebrew Union
College Annual where he also served as a committee member.
Guttmann participated in several Jewish scholarly organizations, including the Colloquium
on Judaism and Christianity at Harvard in 1966, committees in both the Central Conference of
American Rabbis, and Union of American Hebrew Congregations, and the World Congress of
Jewish Studies (for which he won a 1969 Guggenheim fellowship in support of his
lecture).
Guttmann was also an avid amateur photographer and made frequent trips to Israel and
Europe. He died in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1994.
Alexander Guttmann married Manya Kampf in Berlin, Germany in 1937. They had four children:
Ari Guttmann, Judy Guttmann Mizrachi, Naomi Guttmann Klatzkin, and Esther Guttmann
Whitman.
The Alexander Guttmann Papers (1908-1988) detail the scholarly career and personal life of
Alexander Guttmann. Guttmann served as a professor at the Hochschule in Berlin prior to his
emigration to America in 1940 when he became a Professor of Talmud at Hebrew Union College.
He remained there until his retirement in 1978. An ordained rabbi, Guttmann wrote and
lectured extensively.
The papers consist of correspondence, research notes and writings and materials relating to
his 1985 court case. A noted expert on halakkah, much of his correspondence and research
files relate to this topic. Another common subject in correspondence is the advising of
doctoral students working on their coursework and dissertations. There is information about
the Guttmann family's escape to America and the subsequent efforts to obtain restitution for
their property.

- Series A. Correspondence.
- Series B. Lectures, Sermons, and Writings.
- Series C. Responsa/Research Files.
- Series D. Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion.
- Series E. Court Case Records.

|
Scope and Content Note: Consists of material relating to halakkah queries, HUC student candidacies, and publications. The
correspondence is both personal and professional. Guttmann corresponded with current
HUC students such as Stephen Passemaneck or
his former Hochschüle students such as Harris Hirschberg, a rabbi in Los Angeles,
California about both their research interests, and family lives. Also, of special
interest are the Hungarian claims, liftvan (luggage), and Morgenstern correspondence
which concerns the family emigration to the United States in 1940.
