Leiden - Boston, Brill, 2008. XXXI, 490 pp. Fine copy. Hardcover. English edition. Translated from the Hebrew.

SHEPKARU, SHMUEL

Jewish Martyrs in the Pagan and Christian Worlds. ISBN 9780521842815

Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2006. XII, 414 pp. Fine copy. Orig. cloth with dustjacket. This book presents a linear history of Jewish martyrdom, from the Hellenistic period to the high Middle Ages. Following the chronology of sources, the study challenges the general consensus that martyrdom was an original Hellenistic Jewish idea. Instead, Jews like Philo and Josephus internalised the idealised Roman concept of voluntary death and presented it as an old Jewish practice. The centrality of self-sacrifice in Christianity further stimulated the development of rabbinic martyrology and the talmudic guidelines for passive martyrdom. However, when forced to choose between death and conversion in medieval Christendom, European Jews went beyond these guidelines, sacrificing themselves and loved ones. Through death not only did they attempt to prove their religiosity, but also to disprove the religious legitimacy of their Christian persecutors. While martyrs and martyrologies intended to show how Judaism differed from Christianity, they, in fact, reveal a common mindset. ISBN: 9780521842815

Solomon Ibn Gabirol, David R. Slavitt (Translator)

A Crown for the King [Hebrew with English translation]

New York/Oxford, Oxford University Press, 1998. xxii, 88 pp., Very good copy. Hardcover with dustjacket. Bilingual. Solomon ibn Gabirol (ca. 1021--ca. 1058) was the greatest of the Spanish Jewish poets and an important neoplatonist philosopher. Translated into Latin in the mid-twelfth century, his philosophical work became influential among scholars who were unaware that Avicebron (as his last name was Latinized) was a Jew and a celebrated writer of religious hymns. The Royal Crown (or, ''A Crown for the King'' in Slavitt's translation) is the greatest of Gabirols poems. Bernard Lewis has called it one of the major works of Hebrew literature since the completion of the Old Testament. ISBN: 9780195119626
