Original Illustrated Wrappers with cut-out Image vintage donation box. 12mo. 64 pages ; 21 cm. “The Miriam Hospital Association formed in 1907 with a group of concerned women sharing a common goal: to establish a hospital in Providence. Their dream, to provide quality medical care for Jewish immigrants in surroundings where their language and customs were understood, was achieved in 1926 when The Miriam received a charter from the Rhode Island state legislature. As the community grew, so did its need for health care services. The Miriam’s transition from a 63-bed hospital on Parade Street to the 247-bed complex on Summit Avenue has been a response to these needs. The new Miriam was dedicated on April 24, 1966 ‘…to serve all the people of Rhode Island, regardless of race, creed, origin or economic means. ’ Throughout the years, The Miriam Hospital Association, now known as The Miriam Hospital Women’s Association, has played a major role in the development of the hospital. Their fundraising efforts and volunteer programs have channeled a network of resources, providing invaluable assistance to the hospital and the community. ” (The Miriam Story: www.miriamhospital.org, 2017) SUBJECT(S) : Hospitals -- Rhode Island -- Providence -- History.

Imprint: B. Klarsfeld Foundation, New York, N. Y., 1983 1st English Language edition. 4to. Original wrappers, xxxix + 663 pages. Illustrations throughout. In English. “The book by Serge Klarsfeld, … contains vital statistics of some 76, 000 Jews deported from France. Together with his wife Beate, the Paris-based Serge Klarsfeld has published lists of Jews deported from France and Belgium over the last decades. He was the leading Nazi hunter in France…. France was one of the more liberal nations in opening its doors to Jewish refugees from Poland, Romania, and Germany. Some 350, 000 Jews were living in France when the Germans invaded the country in June 1940. More than half of them were refugees from Germany who had arrived during the 1930s. Many were French citizens whose families had lived in France for centuries and who were fully assimilated. Others had come to France, often from Eastern Europe, to seek a better life and escape from antisemitism. Approximately 76, 000 Jews were deported from France between 1942 and 1944. Most went to Auschwitz-Birkenau, where the vast majority were exterminated on arrival. Klarsfeld's book is a most startling document. Nearly the size of the Manhattan (NYC) telephone directory, it lists nearly 76, 000 names of Jews deported to Eastern Europe or killed in France. Names are listed in alphabetical order, according to each of the 80 convoys. Family name, first name, birth date, place of birth, and nationality are recorded for every person. Klarsfeld also provides a detailed history of each convoy. ” (Jewishgen 2018) SUBJECT(S) : Jews -- Persecutions -- France. Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) -- Registers of dead -- France.

With 130 full color illustrations. “In The Illustrated Hebrew Bible, Dr. Ellen Frankel, Editor-in-Chief of the Jewish Publication Society, presents 75 stories from the major narratives of the Bible, capturing the rhythm and drama of this ancient Hebrew text. The stories told here - forty from the Torah, thirty-five from Prophets and Writings - begin with the creation of the world and move through Israel's history, ending with return to the Promised Land from foreign exile. These allegories, parables, and folktales have been retold in a lyrical English that every reader will find accessible. No other literature has inspired more artistic expression than the Bible. From centuries-old synagogue mosaics to the most contemporary paintings and sculpture, biblical themes have held pride of place in the art of every western nation. The Illustrated Hebrew Bible, in 240 pages and with more than 130 full-color reproductions, features a stunning range of images - from ancient artifacts and illuminated Hebrew manuscripts to Renaissance paintings and the art of today. Works by renowned artists such as William Blake, Rembrandt, Jack Levine, Marc Chagall, and Harry Lieberman enrich and deepen our understanding of the biblical text. This unique pairing of art and narration will entertain and inspire all who join in celebrating the greatest story every told. ” (Publishers Description) Subjects: Bible stories, English - Old Testament.

Edition: First Edition
Berlin: M. Simion, 1844-45. Cloth ; 8vo. 363, 488, 488pages. Marbled boards. In German. Complete in 3 volumes. Only edition. Monthly review and a platform for Frankel's opinions on Reform. Among other innovations he believed that the messianic belief, which expressed the "pious wish for the independence of the Jewish people" was of importance for the survival and development of Judaism, and that it brought a new spirit and vigor into the life of German Jews, even though "they already had a fatherland which they would not leave. " Dr. Zacharias Frankel (1801-1875) , was born in Prague. After receiving a talmudic education under Bezalel Ronsburg, he studied philosophy, natural sciences, and philology in Budapest (1825-30) . In 1831 the Austrian government appointed him district rabbi (Kreisrabbiner) of Leitmeritz (Litomerice) , and he settled in Teplitz (Teplice) where he was elected local rabbi. He was the first Bohemian rabbi with a secular academic education and one of the first to preach in German. In 1836 he was called by the Saxon government to Dresden to act as chief rabbi. The publication of his study on the Jewish oath (see below) led to its abolition in several German states. He declined a call to Berlin in 1843, mainly because the Prussian government would not meet his stipulations (complete legal recognition of the Jewish faith-until then merely "tolerated; " denial of support to missionary activities among the Jews, etc. ) . In 1854, after having actively advocated its establishment, Frankel became director of the newly founded Juedisch-Theologisches Seminar at Breslau, where he remained until his death.
