1946ref. 510313IHUD Union Association of Palestine 1946. First Edition. Paperback. VERY GOOD. 80pp. Staplebound in blue printed wraps. Edges toned crease to fore tail corner of the front cover. Clean and sound otherwise. Beginning in the early 30's three of the most prominent leaders in the Zionist movement became vocal critics of the division already present in the British-Mandate administration of Palestine proponents of a unified Arab-Jewish state. This first testimony following the war was given before a joint British-American committee convened with the expressed interest of exploring the role of British Palestine in the settlement of Jewish war refugees. The committee also saw testimony from nationalist Zionists such as David Ben Gurion as well as Arab Palestinians. The findings of the committee would be gathered up into a proposal for a federal government under British administration drafted by British cabinet minister Herbert Morrison and US ambassador Henry F. Grady. The Morrison-Grady plan was mutually rejected by Jews and Arabs. From the introduction: 'The Ihud Union Association was formed in September 1942. It is not a political party. . Though members of Ihud may have varying views on details they are united in the firm conviction that there is but one way of meeting the Palestine problem--that of Jewish-Arab cooperation. . The Ihud Union association stands for the union of Jews and Arabs in a bi-national Palestine based on the parity of the two peoples.' The Ihud association would offer their case again the following year at the United Nations Special Commission on Palestine the following year. IHUD (Union) Association of Palestine paperback
1999ref. 507687Brill 1999. Hardcover. NEAR FINE. lxxxvii 903pp. B/W facsimile frontispiece. Thick 8vo sewn binding in black cloth with gilt stamped lettering. Some very trivial shelfwear and spine just faintly faded exceedingly clean and sharp otherwise with tight binding. Out of print with the publisher though Brill will sell you a pdf for $475 and quite scarce in trade. 'A first edition of the Arabic text and the Hebrew text of the Problemata Physica ascribed to Aristotle which has been elaborated in later Antiquity in Greek. The text corresponding with the first 15 books of the existing Greek text contains chiefly medical problems but also biological and mathematical ones. Therefore this volume deals with a comparison of the existing Greek text and the lost extended Greek version only transmitted in this Arabic translation and in this Hebrew translation of the Arabic version. The authorship of the famous translator Hunain Ibn Ishaq has been discussed. The role of the Problemata Physica in Arabic literature has not been omitted. Interesting for Semitic linguistics is the description of the language used by ḥunain ibn IshÄq and Moses ibn Tibbon and of the influence of Arabic on the Hebrew of the translators. Glossaries have been added to give the reader the opportunity to compare the Arabic text with the Greek and the Hebrew ones.' Publisher's blurb. Brill hardcover

Mose Majemonide Arabico idiomate conscriptus a R. Samuele Abben Thibbone in Linguam Hebraeam translatus novis commentaris uno R. Mosis Narbonnensis ex antiquissimis manuscriptis depromto; altero anonymi cujusdam sub nomine Gibeath Hamore adauctus nunc in lucem editus cura et impensis Isaaci Eucheli. Solisbaci in officina arnsteinii et filiorum. MDCCC." R. Moses Maimonides Rambam was a 12th century Jewish philosopher and halachic legal scholar. A highly controversial figure both during his lifetime and after his death but generally acknowledged as the preeminent Jewish thinker of the Middle Ages. He was born in Córdoba Spain but fled as a child from the Almohad persecution. He eventually settled in Egypt where he served as a rabbi physician and philosopher. His fourteen-volume Mishneh Torah his only work not in Arabic still carries canonical authority particularly within the Yemenite Jewish community as the codification of Talmudic law. His other work includes a commentary on the Mishnah entitled Kitab al-Siraj Kitab al-Fara'I a book on precepts and the philosophical work Dalalat al-Ha'irin known in Hebrew as the Moreh Nevukhim The Guide to the Perplexed. The major premise is an attempted philosophical/theological reconciliation of the Hebrew Bible and Greek knowledge. This work came to play a central role in all subsequent major controversies over philosophy within the Jewish community during the Middle Ages. Arnsteinii et Filiorum hardcover
