Pesah [i.e. Passover; Turkish: Hamursuz Bayrami] is a major Jewish holiday and one of the most widely celebrated Jewish holidays. Together with Shavuot and Sukkot, Passover was one of the Three Pilgrimage Festivals (Shalosh Regalim) during which the entire population of the kingdom of Judah made a pilgrimage to the Temple in Jerusalem. Samaritans still make this pilgrimage to Mount Gerizim, but only men participate in public worship. Nissim [or Nisim] Behar was a Rabi. Behar, whose family moved from Bursa to Istanbul Hasköy when he was very young, was sent to the Alyans School here. The family moved from Hasköy to Kuledibi in 1923. Growing up in a religious family Nisim's mother was a family known for their religiousness in Silivri, and they even got the name "Sofu" when the surname law was enacted.

1888Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original illustrated and decorative wrappers. Minor wear on extremities of cover. Partly uncut and untrimmed. Otherwise a very good copy. 12mo. (16 x 12 cm). In Ottoman script (Turkish with Arabic letters). 78 p. Hegira: 1305 = Gregorian: 1888. Serie: Kütüphane-i Ebüzziya, Aded: 66. First and only edition of this first and earliest antisemitic book in Turkish literature. "It was the first work that carried the traces of antisemitic discourse towards the Jewish people in the Ottomans" (Özkul, Çomak, Uzun). Ebüzziya Tevfik, who raised questions such as "why the Jews do not have a homeland", "why they are not moral" and "why they were exiled throughout history", and discussed these in the first two chapters of his book, is in search of a solution to the "Jewish question" in the final chapter despite taking such a harsh stance in advance. Tevfik was a journalist and writer who started in the path of journalism after having worked as a civil servant for a brief time. He published the newspapers Ibret, Hadika, and Sirac (1873) (1873) with Namik Kemal. Ebüzziya Tevfik, who was a member of the Young Ottoman Association, was exiled to Rhodes together with Ahmet Mithat Efendi after the incidents that arose following Namik Kemal's 'Vatan Yahut Silistre' (Country or Boatswain's Pipe) play in 1873. He returned to Istanbul after the death of Sultan Abdülaziz. He did research in the area of publishing in Vienna where he lived during the rule of Abdülhamid. He established the Ebüzziya Publishing House after his return to Turkey and published the books of the famous writers of the time such as Namik Kemal, Ziya Pasa, Sinasi, Ahmet Rasim, Recaizade Ekrem, and Muallim Naci. He published 'Mecmua-i Ebuzziya' (1880). He was exiled to Konya in 1890 by the Abdülhamit administration on the grounds that he wasn't suitable for civil service. He was elected as Antalya parliamentary deputy (1908) to the parliament that was formed on the announcement of the Second Constitutional Monarchy. Ebüzziya Tevfik, who prepared compilations and translations on anthologies, theater plays, and memoirs, is known more for his contributions to publishing and as a famous editor of the time than as a writer.

2010New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English, Judeo - Spanish and Turkish. Color ills. 360 p. Mint. Including 4 CD, 1 DVD. The Maftirim repertoire, born in Edirne, the ancient capital of the Ottoman Empire is an example of Jewish mystic music. This music came to our days by being orally transmitted from master to student. However, with this form of transmission the number of these liturgical songs that arrived to our days has dropped from the thousands to very few indeed. The last three masters of this music in Turkey, David Behar, Hazzan Isak Maçoro and Hazzan David Sevi, who recorded the present work are maybe the last remnants of this old tradition. The present collection which is the result of five years of intensive work is the struggle to document and transmit whatever we have left of this kind of Turkish Sephardic liturgical music to the next generations. This unique collection should be of tremendous interest to everyone interested in Turkish Classical Music, Turkish Sephardic Music, Jewish Liturgical Music and any other kind of liturgical music. What will you find in the book that accompanies the album? A detailed introductory study on the Maftirim by Prof. Edwin Seroussi from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem; A repertoire of piyyutim by poets stretching from Rabbi Israel Najjara (ca. 1550-1625) to Isaac Eliyahu Navon (d. 1952) printed in the collection Shirei Israel be-Eretz ha-Qedem (Istanbul 1925/6) and performed by the Maftirim until the last generations; Square Hebrew text researched revised and formalized by Prof. Tova Be'eri from Tel Aviv University; Square Hebrew text typed of the piyyutim, vocalized and annotated by Prof. Isaac Jerusalmi (Hebrew Union College, Cincinnati) with romanized transliteration and Ladino, Turkish and English translations; Musical scores digitalized by Karen Gerson Sarhon and edited by Udî Mahmut Özbay, who also included the "usûls" and metronome values; Lavish pictures of the present-day synagogues of Turkey taken by the famous photographer Izzet Keribar. What will you find in the album? The recordings of the repertoire kept in the memory of three Maftirim masters of the last and present generation, David Behar, the late Hazzan Isak Maçoro and Hazzan David Sevi in 4 CDs (audio) and 1 DVD (visual). A total of nearly 6 hours of audio and visual recordings.
2004New New English Original binding with original dust wrapper. Oblong large 8vo. (23 x 24 cm). In French. Ills. 288 p. "L'Histoire" dit-on "est une répétition des faits." Une autre définition qualifie I'Historie de chose "Oubliée dans un coin, parce que ne servant á rien. "Ceux qui vont s'aventurer à entreprendre, avec curiosité, la lecture de ce qui suit, l'Historie des Juifs, pourraient-ils finir, par étre, d'une suite ininterrompue de dates, un chevauchement de faits et d'événements, souvent d'une similitude, et d'une ressemblance, ouvant étre fatigante ou exaspérante, par moment? Pourraient-ils "tomber" dans la généralisation des définitions ci-dessus? J'en doute fort, vu l'importance du sujet. Conscient de cette réaction involontaire de la part du lecteur, j'ai pensé que changer la form esans en altérer le fond, serait un bon moyen d'éviter une surprise, une déception, un préjugé décourageant. Aussi ai-je cherché le moyen d'agrémenter ce sujet aride en soi-méme en yajoutant un peu de fantaisie, sans toutefois risquer d'en compromettre sa teneur historique. Je suis sûr que le lecteur trouvera dans le style de "Annuaire", calqué sur le style journalistique, prétant à ces événements appartenant à un passé lointain, un certain air d'actualité, qui ne l'empêchera pas d'accepter la form esans repousser et douter du fond. "Le Bureau des Taxes et Revenus", "Le Bureau des Statistiques" et "Le Bureau de Presse de la Cour" sont les noms de départements inventés de toutes piéces qui reviennent souvent au cours des évènements présentés sous formes de "nouvelles" dans l'Annuaire. Les données, chiffers, et estimations et le déroulment historique des faits figurant dans ces "nouvelles" ont pour objectif de donner une idée aussi précise que possible, de la contribution des communtés Juives, sous forme de: dîmes, taxes directes ou indirectes, dons, contributions de guerre, taxes spéciales etc; et les détails spécifiques à propos de la vie de nos ancétres parmi les peuples de formation et de cultures diverses cherchant aussi leur voie dans un monde en éternel mouvement. Note: Le lecteur ne doit pas douter de la valeur historique des faits, et des nouvelles suivies d'annotations "entre tirés" ou sous "Not edu Rédacteur", Ndlr. Comme émanant du "Correspondant" ou de "l'Envoyé Spécial" ou de la "Rédaction" ou de "lEditeur" qui transmettent une réflexion de l'auteur. A noter que les communications émanant de ces services comme articles, font intégralement partie des "nouvelles" proprement dites. "L'Annuaire", done aut lecteur, par son classement chronologique et toponymique, la possibilité d'accéder au déroulement des évènements dans leurs séquences historiques, et de déterminer aiséement le nombre de communautés dans les différentes villes, touchées par un méme fait. ll fait défiler de maniére schématique et dépouillée, cette longue historie aux méandres multiples, couvrant des siécles de présence Juive dans un monde hétéroclite, objet d'invasions, d'incursions, qui a vu défiler tour à tour la Gréce, Rome et les Arabes. Par sa présentation, "l'Annuaire" offre, aut lecteur attentif une documentation instructive émaillée par moments des réflexions qui reflétent ce que lui-méme ressent peut-étre à la lecture des faits. Parmi tous ces conquérants, organisés en Nations avec leurs Etendards "leurs Soldats" leurs Chefs Militaires "leurs Rois, brandissant un livre, la Bible, et une philosophie -le Monothéisme- une poignée d'individus, les Juifs" lls apparaisent louvoyant, progressant ou régressant, brimés, oppressés ou élevés et acclamés par ces peuples adeptes de cultures et de religions différentes. Deux religions, toutes deux issues de la religion "Monothéiste Méré" dont seul l'asservissement de ses adeptes pourrait assurer, justifier, et légitimer la prépondérance tant convoitée, par les membres des deux "Religions Filles", qui se combattent, d'ailleurs entre elles. Cette guerre sourde et continue menée à l'échelle nationale, de pair avec la lutte journalière

2013New English Original bdg. HC. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 16 cm). In English. 384 p. Ills. First published in Turkish under the title "Gördüklerim, yasadiklarim". From the back cover text written by Prof. Heath W. Lowry: "Jak Kamhi's memoir offers one a candid glimpse into the private life and times of a man whose career and achievements have not just been limited to the business world, but have likewise spanned the fields of public diplomacy and international relations. Indeed, it is no exaggeration to state that Jak Bey has been a key player in the shaping and implementation of Turkish foreign policy and international relations throughout most of the past half century. He has served, and continues to serve, as one of his country's foremost champions in the international arena. His contributions to Turkish-American, Turkish-French, Turkish-EU and Turkish-Israeli relations speak volumes for themselves. To those who know him well, among whom I am honored to count myself, the revelations contained in 'What I've Seen, What I've Experienced' will come as no surprise. The portrait which emerges from their pages is one of a loving son, husband and father, a successful innovator and entrepreneur in the business world, a dedicated native son of Turkey who has given generously of his time and fortune on behalf of the interests of his beloved homeland. The story that unfolds in his memoir is first and foremost a human one. Marked by highs and lows as all such human sagas, its resounding message is one of dedication and perseverance. Indeed, as these memoirs were about to go to press, Jak's world (and those of all his family and friends) was shaken by the tragic death of his firstborn son, Hayati. The day after the funeral Jak Bey was in his Profilo office rewriting those sections of his memoir referring to his son.
