MEMORIAL SERVICES: RABBI ADOLPH MOSES [COVER TITLE: IN MEMORIAM RABBI ADOLPH MOSES]
Imprint: Louisville, KY: Temple Adas Israel, 1902 1st edition. Original paper wrappers with silver gilt lettering. 8vo, [3] pages. With photo of Rabbi Moses. This is the program for memorial service of this leading Reform Rabbi who had already fought in 2 different armies before landing in the American South. Adolph Moses (1840-1902), "attended both the University of Breslau and Zechariah Frankel 's Rabbinical Seminary. Idealistic and devoted to his studies, Moses was especially interested in history, philosophy, and philology and like many young Jews of the time was strongly influenced by Western civilization. In 1859, carrying only a walking stick, he hiked to Italy where he fought under Garibaldi, attaining the rank of corporal...In 1863, Moses joined the Polish insurrection. Captured by the Russians, he later wrote a novel, Luser Segermacher, about his prison experiences. After his release, Moses went to Frankfurt on Main to study under Abraham Geiger , a leading Reform scholar, and later spent two years at the University of Vienna, where he was close to Professor Adolph Jellinek.... [in 1870] he accepted a call to a pulpit in Montgomery, Alabama, and soon moved on to another in Mobile, where he served 1871-1881. He devoted himself to learning to deliver sermons in good English, rather than the German language prevalent in the American synagogues at the time, and he developed a life-long fascination with Shakespeare, even giving lectures on the Bard. Moses leaned toward radical Reform, deprecating what he would term "physiological Judaism, " by which he meant its ritual and nationalistic aspects. He preferred instead to see Judaism as a world monotheistic doctrine of truth and morality. In 1885, he was the first to rise to advocate acceptance of the Platform at the famous meeting of Reform rabbis at Pittsburgh. He joined a group of rabbis in 1890 in rejecting the halakhic requirement of circumcision for male proselytes, although he criticized conversions for people who simply wanted to marry Jews. He opposed the budding Zionist movement, and like many Reform rabbis of that era moved his temple's main weekly service to Sundays, starting in 1892. He published many articles on Judaism, folklore, and anthropology and served as editor of Zeitgeist, a Jewish journal. A collection of his essays, along with a brief biography, was published in 1903 by Hyman G. Enelow. He graduated from the medical school of the University of Louisville in 1893 and was particularly interested in working with the blind. From 1881, he served as rabbi of Temple Adath Israel in Louisville, Kentucky, where he remained until his death (Schwartz in EJ, 2007) . No copies listed in OCLC. Outer black paper mourning frame wrappers, covering the inner white text and photograpic covers (with hole allowing photo to show through), are detached with edgewear but present. Otherwise Good Condition. Important and Exceedingly rare, perhaps a unique surviving copy. (AMR-57-2) Stock number: 40773.

MENORAH: ILLUSTRIERTE MONATSSCHRIFT FÜR DIE JÜDISCHE FAMILIE. COMPLETE FOR FIRST 3 VOLUMES.
Imprint: Vienna: Menorah., 1923-1925. Large Folio Size. In German. Illustrated in color. Vol I (1-6), Vol 2 (1-12) & Vol 3 (1-12) complete for first 3 years. Full publication ran 10 volumes, through 1932. Important Weimar German Jewish art journal, with articles and illustrations on all the major Jewish artists of the day. Much beautiful contemporary Jewish art. "Die neue Monatschrift "Menorah" ist berufen, einem wirklichen Bedürfnis weiter Kreise entgegenzukommen und gleichzeitig ein bisher unklar empfundenes Verlangen Vieler zum bewußten Bedürfnis zu gestalten.Zahlreich sind bereits die jüdischen Tagesblätter und Zeitschriften, die alle eine begrenzte, sei es politische oder religiöse Tendenz verfolgen. Diese Zeitschrift jedoch stellt sich umfassendere Aufgaben und steckt sich ein weiteres Ziel: Sie will in erster Reihe jene Bestrebungen fördern, die geeignet sind, Brücken zu schlagen zwischen den verschiedenen, oft auseinanderstrebenden Gruppen des Judentums und will auf kultureller Grundlage die notwendige Einheit herbeiführen.Die geistigen und künstlerischen Traditionen wollen wir liebevoll pflegen, den Blick in Epochen zurücklenken, in welchen es noch ein wurzelstarkes, bodenechtes, von keiner Problematik angekränkeltes Judentum gab. Mithelfen wollen wir, und das ist unser großes Ideal, eine einheitliche jüdische Kulturatmosphäre zu schaffen.Die "Menorah" dient keiner Partei, sie will zu Juden jeder Richtung sprechen, soweit sie Fragen der Politik behandelt nur referieren und in versöhnlichem Sinne berichten, durch Wort und Bild belehren, erziehen und auch in gutem Sinne unterhalten. Sie will den Blick der Leser auf die alten künstlerischen Überlieferungen im jüdischen Schaffen lenken, die zu Unrecht nur bei den wenigsten Beachtung finden, von neuen jüdischen Künstlern vermelden und ein übersichtliches Bild des zeitgenössischen literarischen Schaffens bieten. Sie wird keine politische, sondern Kulturpropaganda treiben.Diese Zeitschrift ist der jüdischen Familie gewidmet, die stets Bollwerk und Rückhalt des Judentums war. Sie will auch den Interessen der jüdischen Frauen entgegenkommen und sie an ihre Aufgaben gemahnen, die in der Tat bedeutende sind. Die jüdische Jugend wird stets geistige Anregungen aller Art finden und in ihrem Streben nach körperlicher Ertüchtigung gefördert werden. Dem würdigen Inhalt soll sich ein entsprechendes Äußere gesellen, das auch dem verfeinerten Geschmack gerecht wird.Es ist eine schöne, große Aufgabe, die wir uns gestellt haben. Uns zu ihrer Verwirklichung zu verhelfen, laden wir hiermit die jüdische Öffentlichkeit ein, in deren Hände wir vertrauensvoll dieses erste Heft unserer "Menorah" legen." SUBJECT (S) : Jews – Europe – intellectual life – periodicals; Jews – Germany – history – 1800-1933 – periodicals; Jews – Austria – history – periodicals; Europe – civilizations – Jewish influence – periodicals. OCLC lists 4 copies worldwide (Columbia, Gratz College, UPenn, UPenn Center for Judaic Studies) .

NEW DALSTON SYNAGOGUE AND SCHOOLS. CONSTITUTION AND RULES. 8653-1893.
Imprint: London, E.W. Rabinowicz (printer), 1893 1st edition. Original printed paper wrappers bound into stiff pamphlet protector, 8vo, 15 pages. “Till the [eighteen-] seventies, the number of Jews resident in the district converging on Kingsland Road was extremely small. A vigorous impetus was given to this number, however, by the demolition of many old streets in the East End, which sent multitudes away from that region to find a new home in Dalston. As the North London Synagogue the nearest house of worship to the Jewish inhabitants of Dalston- was much too distant, the desire for a local Synagogue soon began to be felt, and only required the zeal and energy of an enthusiast to give it actuality and form. Such an enthusiast was found in the person of Mr. Elias Cohen, who had not long previously moved to Dalston from the City….It was not long after his arrival in the North of London that the movement for the formation of a new Congregation began to take practical shape. On May 3rd, 1874, a date of considerable importance in the annals of Dalston Jewry, the first meeting was held for the purpose of taking measures for the erection of a Synagogue for the Jewish inhabitants of the Dalston and Hackney districts” (Wasserzug, 1910). (For a full history of the congregation up through 1910, see “The Dalston Synagogue: an historical sketch….[London?]: Birn Bros., 1910, online at https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=uc2.ark:/13960/t3tt4hb8d&view=1up&se q=1). We could locate not a single copy of this booklet anywhere: not on OCLC, not on KVK, not in the British Library. Extremely rare, perhaps a unique surviving copy. Wrappers rubbed, some foxing to pages, about Very Good- Condition. (BR-12-16) Stock number: 42344.
