Unspecified source for Image:Ridley_Herschell.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Ridley_Herschell.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 21:18, 4 January 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MECU≈talk 21:18, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Ridley Haim Herschell
editHi, please can you give a source for the claim that Herschell studied literature rather than medicine? Thanks Gustav von Humpelschmumpel (talk) 16:18, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi, good to find somebody who cares about Ridley Herschell. Herschell's daughter Ghetal wrote a memoir of her late father (1869) for private circulation as well as a piece for the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. She believed in good faith that he went to Berlin Univesity, now Humboldt University, but there is no record of Herschell ever attending and he only ever said that he went to Berlin the city, and that he studied. I left the Berlin bit in because I didn't want to totally destroy the work of the previous contributor! Ghetal was at the time Lady Burdon-Sanderson and was perhaps improving the story just a little. There was no medical faculty at Berlin University. I have visited Humboldt and I am confident there is no record of a Haim Herschell, his Jewish name at the time. It is also quite unlikely because although Herschell was highly qualified as a rabbi and spoke several languages his academic qualifications would not gain him entry to Berlin University. Although there was no bar against Jews as there was at Oxford and Cambridge, they apparently set very high entry standards. Ghetal does say in a footnote that he studied medicine in Berlin but but she also quotes him as saying, "The study of German literature had weakened my confidence in religious observances, had driven me from my own religion, and given me nothing in its place." In his brief autobiography in Jewish Witnesses (1848) he also states:
"At this period I became acquainted with a Polish Jew, who had studied several years at the University of Berlin, and consequently had become acquainted with Gentile literature. He strongly advised me to give up the study of the Talmud, and devote myself to study of German and secular literature. After a hard struggle of mind, I resolved to follow his advice, and accordingly went to -----------. Here there was not only a change in the character of my studies, but an entire change in my habits and mode of life."
I'd be happy, if you are, to say he studied literature and medicine in Berlin and leave it at that. He led a rather a wayward life anyway at that time but prefered to draw a veil over it in later life.
Regards, Geoffrey Henderson.
