Title translates into English as, Rabbi Ephraim Elncaoua (The Rabbi of Tlemcen) 1360-1442. Scarce Holocaust-era publication about Rabbi Ephraim ben Israel Alnaqua (1360-1442) here published in Tlemcen itself. Alnaqua was a physician, rabbi, theological writer, and founder of the Jewish community at Tlemçen, North Africa According to a legend, Alnaqua escaped from the Spanish Inquisition, which had martyred his father and mother at the stake, and came to Maghreb mounted on a lion, using a serpent as a halter. Azulai (refered) to him as a miracle-worker. Alnaqua succeeded, after all other physicians had failed, in curing the only daughter of a king of the Zayyanid dynasty. Refusing the reward of gold and silver offered him by the king, he begged only that the Jews living near Tlemçen might be united in it. In this way the community was formed. Alnaqua's first care was to establish a large synagogue: this is still in existence (as of 1906) , and bears his name. Above the rabbi's chair, on which the verse Jer. Xvii.12 is engraved, a lamp burns perpetually. Alnaqua's grave, surrounded by those of his family, is in the old cemetery: it is sacred to North African Jews, and (as of 1906) is frequently visited by pilgrims from all Algeria (Wikipedia, 2016) No holdings worldwide on OCLC.

18791st Edition. Original Paper Wrappers inside new boards and protective plastic. 8vo. 63 pages ; 22 cm. In German. Title translates into English as, The Tenets of Neugermanischen Judeophobia with Special Reference to W. [Wilhelm] Marrs Writings Historically and Factually Lit by Ludwig Stern. Stern was a German Talmudic scholar, teacher, author, and contemporary of Wilhelm Marr, who published this work in the same year as Marrs infamous pamphlet, Der Weg zum Siege des Germanenthums über das Judenthum (The Way to Victory of Germanicism over Judaism, 1879) . Wilhelm Marr (1819-1904) , a radical agitator, had been on the left wing in the 48 revolutions; he later popularized the term anti-semitism. In Der Weg zum Siege des Germanenthums über das Judenthum, he introduced the idea that Germans and Jews were locked in a longstanding conflict, the origins of which he attributed to race, argued that Jewish emancipation resulting from German liberalism had allowed the Jews to control German finance and industry, and called for the expulsion of Jews from Germany. Marr later renounced anti-semitism at the end of his life, and declared himself as originally a 'philo-semite', undoubtedly under the impact of the debates in the SPD. This work was published in the same year as The Way to Victory of Germanicism over Judaism. OCLC lists 18 copies worldwide, and none outside of Europe. Water-damage throughout but text is very readable. Ex-Library with Jewish Institutional Stamp and Usual markings. A few tears to paper wrappers. Good condition. Important. (holo2-131-26)
