The biographical novel Shirim Attikim ('Old Songs') , the finished version of which appeared posthumously in Cracow in 1903. - EJ 2008. Selections first appeared in Ru'ah ha-Zeman: From 1891 to 1893 Braudes resided in Cracow, editing a weekly which appeared under the names Ha-Zeman and Ru'ah ha-Zeman in alternate weeks, to avoid paying the duty levied on a weekly. - EJ 2008. Reuben Asher Braudes (18501902) , Hebrew author. Active in various East European cities, including Vilna (his place of birth) , Lvov, Kraków, Bucharest, and Odessa, and ultimately (after 1896) in Vienna, Reuven Braudes edited Hebrew and Yiddish periodicals and wrote essays and articles, but is best known as the author of short stories and novels that earned him a reputation as one of the outstanding maskilic Hebrew writers of nineteenth-century Eastern Europe. Shirim atikim (Old Songs; 18901891) raises [the] dilemma: Palestine or America? The books heroes, Naftali and Shimon, have opposing answers to this question. Naftali, a maskil of the old school, fears that 'religion' will control 'life' in the Holy Land and prefers America, which he considers the symbol of freedom and tolerance. However, the American Dream fails him; in the end he chooses to live in Palestine, but it is too late. - Yivo Encyclopedia.

1838Traduit de l'hébreu et accompagné de notes relatives aux antiquités, à l'histoire, aux moeurs, aux coutumes, à la langue ainsi qu'à la littérature des israélites anciens et modernes, par Auguste Pichard, membre de la Société Asiatique, 1 vol. in-8 reliure postérieure demi-chagrin maroquin vert, dos à 5 nerfs orné, tête dorée, filet doré en mors, reliure signé de P. Baillardet, A la Librairie orientale de Dondey-Dupré, et chez Benjamin Duprat, Paris, 1838, 2ff., 162 pp. et 1 f. Comme le précise le traducteur dans sa longue et intéressante préface, ce "livre d'Hénoch que j'ai essayé de traduire, ne fait nullement partie des ouvrages attribués au Prophète du déluge par les Ethiopiens et les Mahométans. Il est probable qu'il n'aura été ainsi nommé que parce que la fantaisie en est venue à l'écrivain israélite. En effet, on pourrait l'appeler, avec autant de raison, [ ... ] le Livre de Socrate, puisque le Patriarche n'y joue pas un rôle plus important que celui du philosophe grec. Ce petit ouvrage, resté inédit jusqu'à ce jour, est la paraphrase du commencement de la Disciplina Clericalis, composée en latin par [ ... ] Rabbi Moïse Séfardy ou Pierre Alphonse, d'après les proverbes, les allégories et les fables des philosophes arabes les plus estimés". Bon état (dos lég. frotté, petit mq. angulaire au dernier f., qq. rouss.). L'ouvrage propose le texte hébreu intégral ainsi que sa traduction. Français
