B/w photographic frontispiece portrait of Jacob Mann in each volume. This first edition of "The Collected Articles" sheds a valuable light on the writings of Jacob Mann 1888-1940 an accomplished and distinguished scholar of the Genizah period and of the Jews under the Fatimids and particularly of the Genizah fragments. Mann for the first time undertook to collect and explain all the documents from the period preceding the Crusades to the fall of the Fatimids. By establishing the dates of a great number of the largely undated Genizah documents Mann provided the chronological framework for the history of the Jews in the Near East. He revealed the great role played by the Jerusalem gaonate in the period before the Crusades and shed new light on the various forces within the Jewish communities then living in the lands ruled by the Fatimids. Although Mann neglected the Arabic documents abstained avowedly from drawing general conclusions and was mainly interested in the communal history of the Jews his work is of lasting value as a great collection of hitherto unknown sources which he ably deciphered and annotated. Minor shelf wear. Bindings in overall good to very good interior in very good condition. M. Shalom Ltd hardcover books

First edition; 7 1/2 x 4 3/4; pp. 3-24; beige wraps printed and ruled in black; illustrated with numerous woodcuts; two small chips and a small closed cut to front wrap; a few minor spots to wraps; very good condition. Cameron Mann 1851 - 1932 was an author Episcopal priest the Third Bishop of North Dakota and the First Bishop of South Florida. The Theta Delta Chi Society was founded as a social fraternity in 1847 at Union College New York. Byy the last quarter of the 19th century the society spread rapidly adding charges a term used by TDX brothers to refer to their local organizations rather than the more-commonly used "chapters" throughout the entire country including Stanford Berkeley Brown Tufts UVA Dartmouth Yale etc. The historical poem related to the Civil War was written and delivered by Mann at the closing of the 27th Annual Convention of Theta Delta Chi at a grand banquet at Delmonico's in New York. The illustrations designed by Franklin Burdge combined typography and beautiful unique wood-engraved illustrations to represent the Greek letters by which the charge was known. According to a "Notice to Graduates" at the end of the booklet the engravings were included "partly in order that by an inspection of the wood cuts inserted they may judge of the character of the new Catalog of the Society and have their attention called to the fact that more subscriptions are needed to print it." Not in OCLC not in the trade. F. W. Stewart paperback books
