Dwight, Theodore
AN ORATION, DELIVERED AT NEW-HAVEN ON THE 7TH OF JULY, A. D. 1801, BEFORE THE SOCIETY OF THE CINCINNATI, FOR THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT, ASSEMBLED TO CELEBRATE THE ANNIVERSARY OF AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE
1st edition. Paper Wrappers (later?), 8vo, 43 pages. Sabin 21532. Dwight here charges that The Jeffersonian party, giving itself "the title of Republican...in more correct, and definite phraseology, is called Jacobinical." The Federalists "prudently, and justly yielded" to the late presidential election, which marked their defeat. Despite the partisan rhetoric, Dwight provides a detailed perspective on the state of political parties and issues at the turn of the century. "Theodore Dwight (1764 Northampton, Mass 1846 New York City) was an American lawyer and journalist. He was the brother of Timothy Dwight, president of Yale College, and the grandson of Jonathan Edwards. He was a distinguished lawyer, a leader of the Federalist Party, and a member of Congress in 18061807, and was secretary of the Hartford Convention in 18141815. His talent as a writer made him a brilliant editor at the Hartford Mirror, the Albany Daily Advertiser, and the New York City Daily Advertiser, which he founded in 1817. Among his publications are Life and Character of Thomas Jefferson (1839) and History of the Hartford Convention (1833). He was a cousin of Aaron Burr....He was a member of the [Conn.] State council 18091815; elected as a Federalist to the Ninth Congress to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of John Cotton Smith and served from December 1, 1806, to March 3, 1807; declined to be a candidate for renomination in 1806; secretary of the Hartford Convention in 18141815; moved to Albany, New York in 1815 and published the Albany Daily Advertiser 18151817....he died on June 12, 1846....In 1839, Dwight published The Character of Thomas Jefferson as Exhibited in His Own Writings, which Abraham Lincoln's law partner and biographer, William Herndon, claimed made Lincoln 'hate [Jefferson] as a man' for his duplicitous character and affair with Sally Hemings" (Wikipedia).

[Poster, Cincinnati] Ibriah
THE HEBREW SPEAKING SOCIETY IBRIAH WILL CELEBRATE THE 15TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HEBREW MONTHLY HASCHILOACH...FEB 10, 1912
1st edition. Poster, 9x12 inches on 13 x 16 inch linen backing. Text in Hebrew, English, and Yiddish. Ibriah, a Cincinnati organization committed to Hebrew conversation and literature, was, not surprisingly, also a center of Zionist support, despite the Reforms dominance in local Jewish thought and culture. Joan Friedman notes in a 2006 article on HUC during the period that, The hot issue of the day during Freehofs student and early faculty years at the College was Zionism. It was discussed in the Literary Society and everywhere else on campus. During the 19111912 academic year, Silver and Professor Neumark had founded a Hebrew-speaking club, Ibriah, of which Marcus was a member, though he does not mention whether Freehof was also. The CCAR had taken a firm stance against Zionism as early as 1897, although individual rabbis were outspoken Zionists.104 Kohler was a committed anti-Zionist. Nevertheless, despite his best efforts, between 1910 and 1920 the student body gradually shifted to an overwhelmingly pro-Zionist perspective as its demographics changed, world events furthered the Zionist cause, and Louis Brandeis popularized a nonideological Zionism acceptable to American Jews, including many Reform Jews (AJAJ, LVIII, Nr ½, p. 21). Light toning, Very Good Condition. Presume quite rare. (ZION-10-12A)
