BARUH PINTO.
Annuaire de la diaspora Juive mondiale.
New New English Original binding with original dust wrapper. Oblong large 8vo. (23 x 24 cm). In French. Ills. 288 p. "L'Histoire" dit-on "est une répétition des faits." Une autre définition qualifie I'Historie de chose "Oubliée dans un coin, parce que ne servant á rien. "Ceux qui vont s'aventurer à entreprendre, avec curiosité, la lecture de ce qui suit, l'Historie des Juifs, pourraient-ils finir, par étre, d'une suite ininterrompue de dates, un chevauchement de faits et d'événements, souvent d'une similitude, et d'une ressemblance, ouvant étre fatigante ou exaspérante, par moment? Pourraient-ils "tomber" dans la généralisation des définitions ci-dessus? J'en doute fort, vu l'importance du sujet. Conscient de cette réaction involontaire de la part du lecteur, j'ai pensé que changer la form esans en altérer le fond, serait un bon moyen d'éviter une surprise, une déception, un préjugé décourageant. Aussi ai-je cherché le moyen d'agrémenter ce sujet aride en soi-méme en yajoutant un peu de fantaisie, sans toutefois risquer d'en compromettre sa teneur historique. Je suis sûr que le lecteur trouvera dans le style de "Annuaire", calqué sur le style journalistique, prétant à ces événements appartenant à un passé lointain, un certain air d'actualité, qui ne l'empêchera pas d'accepter la form esans repousser et douter du fond. "Le Bureau des Taxes et Revenus", "Le Bureau des Statistiques" et "Le Bureau de Presse de la Cour" sont les noms de départements inventés de toutes piéces qui reviennent souvent au cours des évènements présentés sous formes de "nouvelles" dans l'Annuaire. Les données, chiffers, et estimations et le déroulment historique des faits figurant dans ces "nouvelles" ont pour objectif de donner une idée aussi précise que possible, de la contribution des communtés Juives, sous forme de: dîmes, taxes directes ou indirectes, dons, contributions de guerre, taxes spéciales etc; et les détails spécifiques à propos de la vie de nos ancétres parmi les peuples de formation et de cultures diverses cherchant aussi leur voie dans un monde en éternel mouvement. Note: Le lecteur ne doit pas douter de la valeur historique des faits, et des nouvelles suivies d'annotations "entre tirés" ou sous "Not edu Rédacteur", Ndlr. Comme émanant du "Correspondant" ou de "l'Envoyé Spécial" ou de la "Rédaction" ou de "lEditeur" qui transmettent une réflexion de l'auteur. A noter que les communications émanant de ces services comme articles, font intégralement partie des "nouvelles" proprement dites. "L'Annuaire", done aut lecteur, par son classement chronologique et toponymique, la possibilité d'accéder au déroulement des évènements dans leurs séquences historiques, et de déterminer aiséement le nombre de communautés dans les différentes villes, touchées par un méme fait. ll fait défiler de maniére schématique et dépouillée, cette longue historie aux méandres multiples, couvrant des siécles de présence Juive dans un monde hétéroclite, objet d'invasions, d'incursions, qui a vu défiler tour à tour la Gréce, Rome et les Arabes. Par sa présentation, "l'Annuaire" offre, aut lecteur attentif une documentation instructive émaillée par moments des réflexions qui reflétent ce que lui-méme ressent peut-étre à la lecture des faits. Parmi tous ces conquérants, organisés en Nations avec leurs Etendards "leurs Soldats" leurs Chefs Militaires "leurs Rois, brandissant un livre, la Bible, et une philosophie -le Monothéisme- une poignée d'individus, les Juifs" lls apparaisent louvoyant, progressant ou régressant, brimés, oppressés ou élevés et acclamés par ces peuples adeptes de cultures et de religions différentes. Deux religions, toutes deux issues de la religion "Monothéiste Méré" dont seul l'asservissement de ses adeptes pourrait assurer, justifier, et légitimer la prépondérance tant convoitée, par les membres des deux "Religions Filles", qui se combattent, d'ailleurs entre elles. Cette guerre sourde et continue menée à l'échelle nationale, de pair avec la lutte journalière

BARUH PINTO.
The Sephardic onomasticon: An etymological research on Sephardic family names of the Jews living in Turkey.
New New English Original binding with original dust wrapper. Oblong 4to. (22 x 30 cm). In English, French, Hebrew, Ladino, Spanish, and Turkish. [v], [1], 330 p. The Sephardic Onomasticon is an etymological research on Sephardic family names of the Jews living in Turkey. The author's point of departure for trying to establish the etymologies is: he proceeds from the premise that, after biblical times, throughout the the generations, Jews who chose surnames, tended to try and preserve something to remind themselves of the names they had used before, either in their sound or their meaning.

BEKI BARDAVID, FANI ENDER.
Trezoro Sefaradi Vol.1: Folklor de la famiya djudiya [Yahudi ailesinin folkloru]. Vol.2: De punta pie a kavesa [Ayak ucundan basa].
New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (26 x 20 cm). 431 p. In Judaeo-Spanish, Turkish, English, French. The Sephardic Treasury comprises the proverbs and idioms in the Judeo-Spanish language that the Jews exiled from Spain in 1492brought with them. These 'sayings', which even after more than five hundred years still maintain their validity and their meaningfulness reflect all the different phases of Jewish life with its traditions, beliefs, social life etc. The first of the two volumes of Trezoro Sefaradi, "Folklor de la Famiya Djudiya" (The Folklor of the Jewish Family) comprises the concept of familiy in the Jewish culture. The second book, "De Punta Pie a Kavesa" (From the ends of the Feet to the Head) comprises the proverbs and idioms that have to do with all the parts of the body. The Judeo-Spanish 'sayings' have been translated into Turkish, English and French. This book, which is the result of twenty years' work, is a candidate to being one of the best works to transmit the Sephardic culture to future generations. El Trezoro Sefaradi contiene los proverbos i dichas en la lingua Judeo-Esapanyola ke los Judios egzilado de Espanya en 1492 trusheron kon eyos.

Brand, Charles M.
BYZANTIUM CONFRONTS THE WEST 1180-1204
Dustjacket has rubbing to bottom front corner of spine with colour loss and pinhole tear. DJ back panel is lightly browned. Light browning to textblock. ; 406 pages; From 1081 to 1180-- under the three Comneni emperors, Alexius I, John II, and Manuel I- the Byzantine Empire had been a power of major importance, wielding arms and influence in the Holy Land and the Italian penisula. This volume is an examination of the turbulent twenty-four years in which Constantinople, once splendid and celebrated, gradually disintegrated under its last rulers, who had inherited all the problems of an aging social system and possessed few of the talents needed to resolve them. The confrontations between Byzantium and the Western powers became increasingly important and form the major theme of Mr. Brand's study.

The people & places of Constantinople. Watercolours by Amadeo Count Preziosi, 1816-1882.
Fine English Paperback. Small 4to. (27 x 20 cm). In English. 54, [2] p., 53 numerous b/w plts., 46 numerous color plates. The people & places of Constantinople. Watercolours by Amadeo Count Preziosi, (1816-1882). It's prepared for the first exhibition on Count Amadeo Preziosi, (1816-1882) in Great Britain. "This is the first exhibition of the work of Amadeo Preziosi to be held in this ccountry. It does not cclaim to be definitive, but it centered on the Museum's substantial holdings and augmented by loans from collections in Great Britain. Preziosi's name is now little known except to specialists, but in the period 1840-70 he was by far the most reknowned artist in Constantinople. He was only retrieved from the critical neglect into which he had fallen in the 20th century by Rodney Searight who began to appreciate his importance while building up his unsurpassed collection of views of the Near and Middle East. Indeed, it is fitting that the exhibition honours not only Preziosi himself but also Rodney Searight, pioneer of the study of this field, whose collection the Museum is raising funds to acquire. It is hoped that the enthusiasm Preziosi's contemporaries felt foe his lively and colourful studies of a now vanished way of life will be appreciated by visitors to the exhibition". (From the Kaufmann's preface).

With"My Name is Istanbul", Buket Uzuner pays loving tribute to Istanbul and her admirers in the form of a "literary monologue".

BURCU TASKIN.
Political representation of minorities in Greece and Turkey: Nationalism, reciprocity and Europeanization.
New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 512 p. Political representation of minorities in Greece and Turkey: Nationalism, reciprocity and Europeanization. What influences the political representation of minorities? Does a non-core group pursue a certain pattern of collective political behavior, or does it have the ability to alter it through struggle with other groups by calculating the existing opportunities and restrictions? This book addresses these important questions by focusing on the history of political representation of the Muslim-Turkish minority in Greece and the Greek-Orthodox minority in Turkey, two communities whose rights are linked to each other via the "reciprocity principle" written in the Lausanne Treaty, signed by two countries that have long-lasting conflicts. Drawing on presentation of related political history, systematic coding of parliamentary debates and works, minority and mainstream newspapers, and elite interviews, the author analyzes and explains ignored linkages between institutions, bilateral relations between Greece and Turkey, and the role of external factors that enable or constrain minority communities access to political life. This study which adopts a historical institutionalism approach and, by integrating theory of both comparative politics and international relations, shows how the minority groups political participation and the effectiveness of their representation has been determined by the triangle of the two states choice of nationalism, reciprocity and Europeanization policies, mainly argues that internal factors such as groups capability for competition and institutional features of the political system in the host-state mostly override states bilateral relations with the kin-state and international factors. As a result, for the Greek and Turkish case, the host-states generally pursue the policy of state-controlled involvement of their minorities in the political life, where the existence of the threatening kin-state and minority groups strong demographic features lead to avoidance of full assimilation and exclusion from political representation.
