Coralnik, Abraham
Between heaven & water: The selected essays of Abraham Coralnik
PSC Books 1997-01-01. Paperback. Very Good. 1997 signed and inscribed first edition PCS Books San Jose California 5 7/8 x 9 inches tall paperbound 351 pp. Very slight rubbing and edgewear to covers. Inscribed and signed by the translator on the half title page. Otherwise a very good copy - clean bright and unmarked - of this scarce first volume of essays translated from the Yiddish of Abraham Coralnik 1883-1937. OCLC No. 40107811 locates only five copies at institutions worldwide - two at the University of California and one each at Stanford University University of Maryland and Yeshiva University. ~N~ In 1937 when the essayist Abraham Coralnik died of a heart attack Yiddish speakers in the United States lost one of their most articulate guides. As a columnist for the New York newspaper Der Tog The Day during the 1920s and 1930s Coralnik moved effortlessly from discussions of Zionist politics to analyses of Marx and Plato to travelogues through the American heartland. As Europe exploded in anti-Semitism and American Jewish life continued its spectacular transformation into the land of promise and confusion Coralnik provided both insight and context for an immigrant community desperate to understand the changes taking place around it. Today Coralnik's essays can be enjoyed not just for their perspective on two crucial decades of Jewish history but for their timeless wisdom about culture spirituality philosophy and history. This first volume includes an introduction and selected translated essays first written between 1920 and 1937. About the Translator: Beatrice Coralnik Papo the eldest daughter of Abraham Coralnik was born in Berlin in 1913. Educated in Germany Russia and France she came to the U.S. in her early 20s. A social worker by profession Mrs. Papo is a lifelong student of literature and has spent the last two decades translating her father's essays. She lives in San Jose California. PSC Books paperback

Cornelis Galle I (1576-1650), after Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640), after Abraham Janssens (c1575-1632) c 1
Antique portrait print engraving 1632 Portrait of Flemish scholar Justus Lipsius Portret van Justus Lipsius published 1632 1 p.
Portrait of Justus Lipsius 1547-1606 bust directed to the right within an elaborate frame; on the right the serpent winding round the cornucopia symbolises Prudence while the scroll on the other side symbolises Doctrine and is lettered with the titles of Lipsius's major works; above is Mercury's winged hat. Frontispiece to Lipsius's edition of Seneca's works ""L. Annæi Senecæ Opera"" Antwerp: 1615 1st edition. This impression was included in the third edition from 1632.After a drawing by Rubens at the British Museum inv. 18910511.31. The preparatory drawing depicts the Flemish scholar Justus Lipsius and was for inclusion in the volume of Senecas works that was published in 1615 by the Plantin Press in Antwerp. Rubens depiction of Lipisus was produced by working from a painting by Abraham Janssens which explains for the rather static character. The portrait was drawn first and then Rubens drew in the foliate frame which is rich with emblematic meaning and incorporates a wreath cornucopia a winged hat of Mercury the sun and two lamps. Subsequent touches were added to the face of Lipsius in pen and ink. The design was subsequently engraved by Cornelis Galle I.Entry from J. Rowlands 'Rubens: Drawings and Sketches' exhibition catalogue London British Museum 1977:The sitter Justus Lipsius was a famous Flemish scholar and leading exponent of a modern stoic philosophy. He attempted to embrace and reconcile the ever increasing divisions in thought and religion in his day. In his search for a solution his restless moves from one sect to another of Christianity are not without considerable significance. Through his brother Philip who was a pupil of Lipsius Rubens adopted much of the Stoic outlook which in any case harmonised well with his temperament. He was for moderation in all things nothing to excess.This design is for the engraving in reverse by Cornelis Galle included in Lipsius's edition of Seneca's works published by the Plantin press in 1615 see 18910414.1001. Lipsius's edition of the works of the Roman rhetorician dramatist and philosopher was long to remain the standard one. The influence of Seneca's philosophical thought in the post-classical world reached its peak in Lipsius's own writings. As with all his other portraits of Lipsius Rubens based it on that now lost of the philosopher by Abraham Janssens.Lettered on the plinth with Lipsius's motto: MORIBVS ANTIQVIS. Lettered in Latin below in a cartouche with an allusion to Timanthes in two lines: LIPSIADÆ velum est Timantis imago. videri / Sol quoque sub picea non nisi nube potest. / Henr. d'Oultremannus. Lettered with production detail in lower right corner: Corn. Galle sculp.NL Antieke prent.

Historie der Joden die t’Sedert de Verstooringe Jerusalems in alle Landen verstroyt zijn in dry Deelen beschreven A History of the Jews Who Have Been Scattered Throughout the World Since the Destruction of Jerusalem

Old entry at front pastedown. Occasional faint dampstain at bottom margin else a very good copy with clean text throughout.<br /> <br /> Second edition of this polemical history by “a strident condemner of the Jews†Sprunger. First published at Rotterdam by Jan van Waesberghe in 1608 the present work is the earliest reaction in print to the presence of Jews and their religion in the Dutch Republic van Rooden. Citing M. Bodian’s Hebrews of the Portuguese Nation R. Po-Chia Hsia describes the cultural context: “Coming initially in the 1590s as Portuguese merchants and Christian converts the so-called ‘New Christians’ Sephardic Jews in fact were welcomed by the Regents of Holland but were strongly opposed by the Reformed clergy. When the conversos reverted to the open practice of Judaism reaction from the Reformed Church was fierce. The predikant Abraham Coster 1575-1620 attacked the Sephardim as an ‘unclean people’ who sought to build a public synagogue ‘in which they can perform their evil and foolish ceremonies and spew forth their gross blasphemies against Christ and his holy gospels as well as their curses against the Christians and Christian authorities’â€. The present edition was later re-issued the following year with identical collation and pagination but designated as “Den 2den druck van nieuws oversienâ€. References: R. Po-Chia Hsia “Introduction†& P. van Rooden “Jews and Religious Toleration in the Dutch Republic†in: Calvinism and Religious Toleration 3; 137. Sprunger Trumpets from the Tower 81. NNBW 8 320: “Dit werk is een poging om de Amsterdamsche vroedschap te bewegen het bouwen van een nieuwe openbare synagoge te belettenâ€. For Gerrit Willemsz (by Adriaan Roest) hardcover
