‎HA-KETUBAH BE-‘ITURIM / THE KETUBA: JEWISH MARRIAGE CONTRACTS THROUGH THE AGES‎

‎(FT) Publishers cloth. Folio. 116 pages. 34 cm. First edition. In Hebrew and English. Bound in red cloth with gilt lettering, in illustrated dustjacket, housed in red boards, inserted into case made of boards with printed wraps. “The Ketuba: Jewish marriage contracts through the ages. ” Written by David Davidovitch, with a foreword by Cecil Roth, and designed by Avigail and Itshak Yoresh. This exceedingly detailed volume both outlines the community and rabbinic history and practice of the Ketuba, with 18 facsimile full page color illustrated pastedown reproductions, as well as dozens more black and white illustrations, also showing other facets of marriage rites, including contemporary photographs and illuminated manuscripts depicting the elaborate weddings of Yemenite Jews. The Ketubbah; “a document recording the financial obligations which the husband undertakes toward his wife in respect of, and consequent to, their marriage, obligations which in principle are imposed on him by law. … Most Jewish communities have followed the custom of decorating the ketubbah. An Ashkenazi ketubbah from Krems. Austria, dated 1392, shows that illumination was usual among Ashkenazi communities during the Middle Ages. However, the best-known illuminated ketubbot, which date from the 16th century onward, were from Italy, certain Sephardi communities, and from Near and Far Eastern Jewry. Richly illuminated ketubbot, which date from the 17th and 18th centuries, are from Italy, Corfu, the Balkans, and Gibraltar. They are written on parchment and the text is usually bordered by an illuminated frame, depicting a variety of decorative themes in many bright colors. The frame, which is sometimes divided into a diptych, is often illustrated with biblical or mythological motifs, portraits of the bride and groom in contemporary costume, family coats of arms, symbols representing conjugal bliss, and even nude figures. Typical Jewish symbols were used, such as the hands forming the priestly blessing, a sign that the groom was from a family of kohanim, or a ewer and basin indicating a levite. Sometimes, the biblical figures represented in the ketubbah symbolize the bride or groom's name; thus a scene from the life of Joseph might mean that the groom's name was Joseph, a scene from the Book of Ruth that the bride's name was Ruth. Dutch Sephardi ketubbot of the same period are distinguished by their delicate ornamental engraving. They were mainly executed on parchment and are in the best Dutch copper-engraving tradition. An outstanding example is a 1658 Rotterdam ketubbah, executed by Shalom Italia, a copper engraver from Mantua who emigrated to Holland. This ketubbah is rich in biblical motifs. Another famous copperengraved ketubbah, dating from the late 17th century, is decorated with flowers and allegorical figures in the typical Dutch-Jewish contemporary manner. The border contains the date 1693, commemorating the year of the death of the renowned Amsterdam rabbi, Isaac Aboab de Fonseca. ” (EJ 2008) Subjects: Jewish illumination of books and manuscripts.

‎La Guerre contre les Juifs, 1933-1945.‎

‎Hachette, 1977, fort in-8°, 671 pp, traduit de l'américain, une carte, glossaire, broché, couv. à rabats, bon état‎

‎"Professeur d'histoire juive moderne à la Yeshiva University, l'auteur tente de répondre à trois questions fondamentales : « 1. Comment un Etat moderne a-t-il pu procéder au meurtre systématique de tout un peuple pour la seule raison qu'il agissait de Juifs ? 2. Comment tout un peuple a-t-il pu se laisser détruire ? 3. Comment le monde a-t-il pu accepter cet holocauste sans y mettre fin ? » (p. 7). La première partie : « La Solution Finale », se veut une réponse à la première question. Après avoir étudié la pensée d'Hitler sur les Juifs, et, à l'arrière-plan, les racines profondes de l'antisémitisme allemand, elle montre comment, dès la prise de pouvoir, Hitler et les nazis organisèrent méthodiquement ce qui allait être les instruments de leur dessein : la législation anti-juive, d'une part, la création de la SS, d'autre part, à laquelle fut confiée la garde des camps de concentration - dont certains seront transformés, au moment de la guerre, en camps d'extermination. (...) La seconde partie : « L'Holocauste » retrace ce que furent la vie et la mort dans les ghettos de l'Europe, avant et surtout pendant la guerre. Contrairement à ce que l'on dit trop souvent, les Juifs ne subirent pas passivement le destin qui leur fut imposé. Victimes de la plus monstrueuse tyrannie jamais connue, ils tentèrent, de maintes façons, de s'organiser pour survivre. Comme le montre abondamment l'auteur, la vie quotidienne des ghettos fut, pendant des années, un combat incessant contre la misère, la faim, la déportation, la mort..." (Yves Chevalier, Archives de sciences sociales des religions, 1977) — "... Lucy Dawidowicz, qui fut sans doute l'historienne de l'Holocauste dont l'œuvre a touché le plus grand nombre de lecteurs, insistait fortement sur l'antisémitisme allemand, introduisant ce leitmotiv avec une certitude caractéristique. Dans le chapitre d'introduction à son livre "The Holocaust and the Historians", elle accuse ses collègues d'avoir dénaturé le Troisième Reich. « La Judenfrage – la question juive – tenait toute l'Allemagne. L'héritage ancien de l'antisémitisme composé de préjugés chrétiens, de rivalités économiques et de jalousie sociale a été attisé par le racisme nazi. Chaque ville allemande, chaque bourg et chaque village se sont donnés à la question juive et aux Juifs avec une violence rampante et un légalisme méticuleux ». Dans son esprit, il n'y a aucun doute sur la « position centrale de l'antisémitisme dans l'attrait qu'a exercé Hitler sur les Allemands ». De même, il lui paraît évident que les idées du Fùhrer sur les Juifs « ont déterminé les mesures antijuives de la dictature allemande de 1933 à 1945, et [...] ont légalisé le meurtre des communautés juives d'Europe pendant la deuxième guerre mondiale »." (Michaël R. Marrus, Regard sur l'historiographie de l'Holocauste, Annales ESC, 1993)‎
