Singerman 2109.The original two volumes of the Minhag America prayer book had both been published in 1857, one with Hebrew-English text (Prayer Book for Public and Private Worship) and the other with Hebrew-German text (Gebet-Buch fur den offentlichen Gottesdienst und die Privat-Andacht). Wise here indicates that with this third volume includes additional new writings by Wise and others. Text in English and German on facing pages. Also includes detailed service instructions, religious notes, a table of torah readings and a table of contents. Wises Minhag America would become the standard liturgy of American Refom congragations from its original publication until the introduction of the Union Prayer Book in the 1890s. Of the three volumes issued in the 1860s, this Hymnal-Psalter remains the scarcest, far, far less common than the volumes for Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kipur, reflecting the centrality in American Reform Judaism of the High Holidays above other forms of daily liturgy.

1919réf. 36908New York December 11 1919. 1919. Very good. - Over 30 words typed on his 6 inch high by 8 inch wide buff "Free Synagogue / New York" stationery. Stephen Samuel Wise is pleased to accept American impresario and lecture agent James B. Pond's invitation to serve on the committee welcoming Maurice Maeterlinck to America. Wise writes "I accept with much pleasure your kind invitation to serve as a member of the Honorary Reception Committee." Signed "Stephen S. Wise". Folded for mailing with a small piece out from the top left corner. Very good. Born in Budapest Stephen Samuel Wise 1874-1949 emigrated to the US when his father accepted service as rabbi of Brooklyn's Congregation Baith Israel Anshei Emes. After completing his studies at Columbia University Wise pursued rabbinical studies under several noted rabbis of the era including Richard J.H. Gottheil Kohut Gersoni Joff and Margolis. He was appointed assistant rabbi of NYC's Congregation B'nai Jeshurun becoming the Congregation's senior rabbi later that year. Taking over as rabbi of Portland Oregon's Congregation Beth Israel he attacked many of the social and political ills facing the country. He soon broke with the traditional reform movement and established his "Free Synagogue" in 1907 launching a movement. Wise was an early supporter of Zionism and laid the groundwork for what became the Zionist Organization of America and served as president of the American Jewish Congress. His good friend Albert Einstein profoundly praised him in a tribute that Einstein presented at the celebration of Wise' 60th birthday. In 1914 Wise co-founded the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People NAACP. Wise early on saw the threat posed by Hitler's rise in Germany and fought to shape U.S. public opinion against the growing German threat leading efforts for a Jewish Boycott of Germany and the creation of the World Jewish Congress. James B. Pond the American impresario and lecture agent who headed the J.B. Pond Lyceum Bureau brought the great Belgian poet Maurice Maeterlinck to America for a series of lectures. The first lecture took place at Carnegie hall on January 2nd 1920. Unfortunately Maeterlinck failed to carry out his intention to lecture in English because of his labored "phonetic" English. He declared his intention to continue his lectures in French and have the translation read by another person. As a result the lecture tour was a failure and lawsuits ensued on both sides.

1858réf. 197991858. Powers Susan Rugeley. Remarks on Woman's Work in Sanitary Reform is a circa 1859 pamphlet documenting Victorian women's public health work through the system of sanitary reform revealing how women's domestic educational and visiting labor was framed as essential to national health. Addressed to mothers educators tract distributors and visitors of schools cottages and workhouses the text asks "What can woman do in her domestic and social capacities to remedy these evils" and answers by assigning women authority over household health infant care education and habits. The pamphlet supports research into women's employment Victorian public health sanitary reform feminist social thought and the expansion of women's public roles through reform labor. Powers Susan Rugeley. Remarks on Woman's Work in Sanitary Reform. London: Tweedie circa 1859. 20 pages. 8vo. The pamphlet divides sanitary labor into "the amelioration of injurious external circumstances" and "the reform of injurious habits and customs" identifying the former principally with men and the latter principally with women. Powers argues "It is for woman in her functions of mother housewife and teacher" to change infant management domestic economy education and the habits of women and adds that "It is for her to teach and apply the laws of health in her own provinces where man cannot act." Susan Rugeley Powers was the first secretary of the Ladies' Sanitary Association an organization founded to educate working-class communities on public health; the pamphlet was also connected to the English Woman's Journal and the wider Langham Place reform milieu. The pamphlet demonstrates the process by which sanitary reform converted gendered domestic expertise into organized public health labor giving women a socially sanctioned role in health education before broader access to professional employment. Contemporary holdings appear limited: a dealer record notes four WorldCat copies and three COPAC copies while a University of Wisconsin catalog record identifies a later microfilm version associated with the English Woman's Journal. Slight chipping at binding; pages held together; minor wear. Overall very good. A focused Victorian women's reform pamphlet linking public health domestic authority and early arguments for women's socially necessary work. unknown
