FONDO DI MAGAZZINO SEGNI DEL TEMPO, UNA LEGGERISSIMA PIEGA AL RETROCOPERTINA, MA IL VOLUME è INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. ANCORA PRESENTE LA FASCETTA PUBBLICITARIA: NUOVA EDIZIONE. Il volgere del nuovo secolo, il passaggio delle generazioni, la difficile elaborazione del lutto della Shoah, insieme alle domande che nascono dalla crisi mediorientale, ci portano ad interrogarci sulle radici europee dell'identità ebraica. Questo libro racconta sei secoli di storia degli ebrei in Europa, dal Trecento fino alle soglie del Novecento: una storia che è quella degli ebrei dell'Occidente cristiano, delle condizioni della loro esistenza, dei rapporti con la cultura esterna, di esilio e migrazioni, chiusura nei ghetti e vitalità sociale e culturale.

Publishers cloth. 8vo. X, 186 pages. 24 cm. First edition. In February of 1903, in a small town in the southwestern part of the Russian empire, a peasant stumbled upon the corpse of 14-year-old Mikhail Rybachenko, bruised and covered with stab wounds, in a garden. The murder immediately fueled wild rumors that he had been killed by local Jews in need of his Christian blood to prepare their matzah bread. Panic rumors, grounded in sinister superstitions of Jewish sorcery and ritual murder, quickly spread to nearby towns. By April, they had hit Kishinev - a growing metropolis of 100, 000 inhabitants rife with the unrest of rapid expansion, ethnic rivalry, revolutionary agitation, and anti-Semitism - with full force. The resulting massacre left dozens dead, and hundreds wounded, maimed, widowed, orphaned, or homeless. This is the story of Kishinev. In this extensively researched book, Edward Judge examines these anti-Jewish riots, detailing their background, cause, and aftermath. He traces the evolution of the riots, analyzing the broader impact of imperial policies, urbanization, nationalism, population growth, and revolutionary activism upon the Jewish situation in Russia. Recounting the activities and attitudes of anti-Semitic agitators and Kishinev officials, the book examines the spiral of violence, the inaction of the authorities in the wake of the pogrom, the storm of indignation that followed the pogrom, and the efforts of tsarist officials to counter subsequent negative publicity. Easter in Kishinev also portrays the investigation of the disorders and the trials of the rioters and carefully considers the question of government responsibility for the outbreak of the pogrom.

1st edition. Original binding with leather spine and gold gilt lettering. 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) .Includes volume title pages and Zhitlowskys 16 page prologue (usually missing) entitled This program and the dissemination of the monograph 'The New Life.' Ex-library with usual, minimal markings. Binding repaired. Pages are clean and good. Good condition. (YID-30-6)
