" The original Pravda was founded in 1905 by Spilka, a breakaway party from the Revolutionary Ukrainian Party. In October 1908 Leon Trotsky was called in to edit the newspaper and pick it up from its insignificant and run down state. After several issues, the Spilka left the newspaper to Trotsky – the subtitle "Organ Ukrainskago Soyuza 'Spilki' [Organ of the Ukrainian Union 'Spilka'] appears only on the first two issues – who converted it into a Russian social democratic newspaper aimed at Russian workers. The editorial staff consisted of Trotsky and, at various times, Victor Kopp, Adolf Joffe and Matvey Skobelev, who tried to avoid the factional issues that divided Russian émigrés and concentrated on the issues of interest to Russian workers. The newspaper published its last issue on April 23, 1912. CONTENTS OF ISSUES AVAILABLE: No. 3: Pered Pervym Maya [Before May First] -- Rabochie I Dzhaparidze [Workers and Dzhaparidze].

Imprint: New York : Ferayn "dos Naye Leben, 1908-1909
Edition: First Edition
Binding: Hardcover

1st edition. Original, beautifully illustrated boards. 8vo. 745 pages, 23 cm. In Yiddish. Title translates to “The New Life. ” A complete 1st year of this important Yiddish monthly. Zhitlowsky, an immigrant socialist revolutionary, sought to synthesize socialism with nationalism as early as 1883. He demanded for Jews "national equal rights with all peoples" and asserted that only through the Yiddish language could the social and national revival of the Jewish people be effected. He maintained that one could remain identified with the Jewish nationality even if abandoning the Jewish religion. He urged the Jewish masses to participate in the class struggle as a national unit. Alone among the cosmopolitan Jewish socialists he favored national socialism. In 1897 he began publishing philosophical studies in Jewish history and a comprehensive program of action which later appeared in book form as Pisma o starom I novom yevreystvie ("Letters on Old and Modern Judaism, " 1907) . His main thesis was that national consciousness consists mainly of spiritual-cultural determinants and that these national characteristics can be maintained by the Jews in the future in the lands of their dispersion, just as they have survived the lack of territory or unity of language since the end of the second commonwealth. After emancipation of the individual the Jews as a group should be granted national self-government within the framework of the state along with other national minorities. His secularization of the national idea as opposed to those who saw the essence of Judaism in religion, and his optimistic view of the future of Judaism in the Diaspora, were the main underpinnings of his insistence on national cultural autonomy. Zhitlowsky was "in favor of the centrality of Yiddish in the national Jewish experience and labored toward the recognition of that language, and of those who lived out their lives in it, as one of the several cultural linguistic communities of Eastern Europe, and of the Western world as a whole" (Isaac Levitas, et al, in EJ) . Ex-library with usual, minimal markings. Lacks Zhitlowsky’s original 16 page prologue entitled “This program and the dissemination of the monograph “The New Life” and the title page of issue one.

Airin. “Notes by Louis Ginzberg” on pages 129-144. "Works consulted" on pages ix-x. Efros (1891-1981) was a “Hebrew educator, poet, and scholar. Born in Ostrog, the Ukraine, he went to the United States in 1905. He served for a time as rabbi and in 1918 founded the Baltimore Hebrew College and the Teachers Training School. He was professor of Hebrew at Johns Hopkins University, rabbi of Temple Beth El in Buffalo, professor of Semitics at the University of Buffalo and Hunter College, N. Y. C. , where he founded the Hebrew Division; in 1945 he was appointed professor of Jewish philosophy and modern Hebrew literature at Dropsie College, Philadelphia. Efros served as president of the Histadrut Ivrit of America. He settled in Israel in 1955 and served as rector of Tel Aviv University. In 1960 he was elected honorary president of the university. His works on Jewish philosophy include The Problem of Space in Jewish Medieval Philosophy, Philosophical Terms in the Moreh Nebukim, Judah Halevi as Poet and Thinker, Ha-Pilosofyah ha-Yehudit ha-Attikah, Ancient Jewish Philosophy: A Study in Metaphysics and Ethics, Studies in Medieval Jewish Philosophy, and studies on Saadiah Gaon and Abraham B. Hiyya. Among his volumes of poetry are Shirim; Vigvamim Shotekim, a poem about the American Indians with echoes of American epic poetry; Zahav about the California Gold Rush of 1849; Anahnu ha-Dor. A four-volume collection of his poetry was published in 1966. His spiritual world is rooted both in tradition and in critical philosophy; thus tension is felt in his poetry between the antipodes of feeling and cerebration. Efros’ diction is both poetic and precise. A pessimistic vision dominates his post-World War II works. Efros translated Shelley's poetry and Shakespeare's Hamlet and other works into Hebrew, and some of Bialik’s poetry into English. He also collaborated with Judah Even-Shmuel (Kaufman) and Benjamin N. Silkiner in compiling an English-Hebrew dictionary” (Berenbaum and Skolnik in EJ, 2007) . Ex-library. Hinge repair. Light yellowing to edges of some pages. Wear to edges of cover binding.

Born in Ostrog, the Ukraine, he went to the United States in 1905. He served for a time as rabbi and in 1918 founded the Baltimore Hebrew College and the Teachers Training School. He was professor of Hebrew at Johns Hopkins University, rabbi of Temple Beth El in Buffalo, professor of Semitics at the University of Buffalo and Hunter College, N. Y. C. , where he founded the Hebrew Division; in 1945 he was appointed professor of Jewish philosophy and modern Hebrew literature at Dropsie College, Philadelphia. Efros served as president of the Histadrut Ivrit of America. He settled in Israel in 1955 and served as rector of Tel Aviv University. In 1960 he was elected honorary president of the university. His works on Jewish philosophy include The Problem of Space in Jewish Medieval Philosophy, Philosophical Terms in the Moreh Nebukim, Judah Halevi as Poet and Thinker, Ha-Pilosofyah ha-Yehudit ha-Attikah, Ancient Jewish Philosophy: A Study in Metaphysics and Ethics, Studies in Medieval Jewish Philosophy, and studies on Saadiah Gaon and Abraham B. Hiyya. Among his volumes of poetry are Shirim; Vigvamim Shotekim, a poem about the American Indians with echoes of American epic poetry; Zahav about the California Gold Rush of 1849; Anahnu ha-Dor. A four-volume collection of his poetry was published in 1966. His spiritual world is rooted both in tradition and in critical philosophy; thus tension is felt in his poetry between the antipodes of feeling and cerebration. Efros’ diction is both poetic and precise. A pessimistic vision dominates his post-World War II works. Efros translated Shelley's poetry and Shakespeare's Hamlet and other works into Hebrew, and some of Bialik’s poetry into English. He also collaborated with Judah Even-Shmuel (Kaufman) and Benjamin N. Silkiner in compiling an English-Hebrew dictionary” (Berenbaum and Skolnik in EJ, 2007). Ex library, hinges repaired, some pages loose, otherwise good condition. (RAB-57-1A)
