PELLI, MOSHE

The Age of Haskalah. Studies in Hebrew literature of the Enlightenment in Germany. (Studies in Judaism in Modern Times 5). Hardcover.

Leiden, 1979. XII,255 pp. A few pages with foldingmarks. Else good. Orig. cloth. Bookplate inner frontcover. The Age of Haskalah is a seminal study of the beginnings of the Haskalah (Hebrew Enlightenment) in Germany in the last quarter of the 18th century. The Haskalah was a literary and cultural movement that reshaped and re-formed Judaism and the Jews in accordance with the needs of modern times, i.e. the European Enlightenment. Leaders of the movement were known as Maskilim and included the poet and grammarian, Naphtali Herz Wessely; the physician, Mordechai Gumpel Schnaber; the writer, Isaac Satanow; the rabbi, Saul Berlin; and the editor and writer Isaac Euchel. With detailed textual and historical evidence, author Moshe Pelli examines the backdrop of the Hebrew Enlightenment and the impact of the European Deism on the pundits of Haskalah. He further probes into early intimations of religious reform, the methodology of reform seen in the first reform temple controversy of 1818, and the attitude of the Maskilim toward the Talmud and the revival of the Hebrew language.

Tradesmen & Farmers of Yiddisland 1921-1938. Artisans et paysans du Yiddishland 1921-1938 Préface Serge Klarsfeld. Bel-melokhhes un foyerim inem Yidishland 1921-1938.

Paris, Ort, 2006. 28,4x25,4 cm. 96 pp. Illustr. Fine copy. Hardcover with dustjacket. Trilingual English, French, and Yiddish. This fascinating collection of photographs documents a relatively unknown episode of Jewish history in Eastern Europe. Illustrating how the 1920s and 1930s saw the creation and development of "Jewish agricultural colonies" in the Soviet Union, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, and Romania, this history shows that the aim was to "normalize" Jews by teaching them "productive" professional skills. These recently discovered photographs offer a unique and moving insight into the Jewish experience in central and Eastern Europe before World War II. ISBN: 9782850568626
