New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 576 p., ills. "At an early age, I started questioning myself, wondering what there was beyond becoming wealthy. When I reached 65, I wrote an essay. It's title was "The Ability to Become Redundant." As I advance in age, the time I had left became more limited while the number of books waiting to be read on my shelves increased. I needed to find a solution to this contradictory situation. I needed to change my lifestyle. I reduced the time I wasted sleeping to the minimum. Transferring my business responsibilities to the younger generation sooner would address this situation. I took rapid steps in that direction. It was a great source of pride for me to see professionals who had absorbed the principles set from the beginning by the founders. It value this more and more. I see becoming redundant as the crowning of my life." Now when I look back as a man who has reached 85, I believe I have covered quite a distance. Life isn't as long as one thinks. Time flows and passes. What is left behind is what you've done, the causes you have struggled for. Don't forget that what we call life is not about the years you have spent, it is made of what you've experienced. Everything starts small, it starts with small steps. Unexpected obstacles appear at unexpected moment, obstacles emerge in front of you and you are being tested. Of course, there are opportunities too. Your character and your attitude develop as a result of what you've experienced. It is good that I realised early, after I had earned some money, that owning more money wasn't very important. It is good that I made success appear ordinary, that I diversified my assets. It is good that I pursued my quest and confronted the question "what will I strive for in my life?". It is good that I always sought respectability. It is good that I met Üzeyir Garih. It is good that in time I left the business to professionals. It is good that I embarked on the way to become redundant. It is good that I freed myself and relieved myself of my burdens. It is good that I wasn't raised with a single identity. It is good that I turned to my social responsibilities. It is good that I thought, and expressed my opinions courageously. It is good that I didn't pay attention to threats. It is good that I questioned myself and the society, that is you. It is good that I said: "let's cleanse ourselves of our sins". It is good that I became an "early crowing rooster". I live every day with the aim of becoming a more perfect and a more useful human being.".

Om. Rosa Sutzkever was one of the best-known artists of Vilna, and had trained at the Art Academy there (Bogen, 1991) and was part of Yung Vilna. Yung-Vilne (Young Vilna) , was a Yiddish literary group, introduced in the daily Vilner Tog in 1929 with the headline: Young Vilna Marches into Yiddish Literature. It aroused excitement through its miscellanies (Yung-Vilne, 193436) , its contributions to local and international Yiddish journals, and individual books of verse and fiction. Principal members included poets Chaim Grade , Shimshon Kahan, Peretz Miransky, Abraham Sutzkever , Elkhanan Wogler, and Leyzer Wolf , prose writers Shmerke Kaczerginski and Moyshe Levin, and artists Bentsie Mikhtom and Rokhl Sutzkever. Dozens more were associated with the group, whose members were united by generation, place, a shared humanistic orientation, and the encouragement of local intellectuals like Zalman Rejzen and Max Weinreich . A Yung-Vilne evening in the Vilna ghetto, the participation of several members in the partisan underground, and the accomplishments of Grade and Sutzkever as leading postwar Yiddish writers assure that Yung-Vilne will be remembered as one of the great incubators of Jewish creativity in interwar Poland (Lipzin & Cammy, 2007) .

First edition. Original Printed Wrappers, 8vo, 6, 8, 12, 32 pages ; 26 cm. In Yiddish. Title translates as, A Bouquet of Flowers: In Four Parts. Singerman 4953. Contents: 1. Ale Lider fun Akaydes Yitshak, fun A. Goldfaden; 2. Kupleten un Folks Lider, fun M. Avramovits [Max Avramovich]; 3. Ale Lider fun Kuzari, fun Prof. Hurvits; & Anekdoten, fun G. Broyda. Abraham Goldfaden, (18401908), was a Yiddish poet, dramatist, composer, and father of the Yiddish theater. Born in Staro Konstantinov, Ukraine, he received not only a thorough Hebrew education but also acquired a knowledge of Russian, German, and secular subjects. To avoid the draft, Goldfaden was sent to a government school at 15 and there came under the influence of his teacher Abraham Ber Gottlober, a Hebrew writer who was also a lover of Yiddish. Graduation from this school in 1857 permitted Goldfaden to enter the rabbinical seminary at Zhitomir, which trained rabbis, teachers, and Jewish officials for government service. Under the guidance of sympathetic teachers, including such leaders of the Haskalah movement as E. Z. Zweifel, H. S. Slonimsky, and Gottlober, he was encouraged to compose Hebrew lyrics. The first of these were published in 1862 in Ha-Meliz. A year later Goldfaden's first Yiddish poems appeared in Kol Mevasser. In 1865 Goldfaden published a booklet of his Hebrew songs Zizim u-Ferahim. In 1866, the year of his graduation as a teacher, his first collection of Yiddish songs Dos Yudele offered rich material for badhanim and folksingers. It was followed by a supplementary booklet Di Yudene (1869). In 1875 he joined a former classmate Isaac Joel Linetzki in founding and editing in Lemberg a short-lived humorous magazine Der Alter Yisrolik. Goldfaden then went to Rumania where he came in contact in Jassy with the Broder Singers, who were singing and acting out Yiddish songs, including his own, in wine cellars and restaurant gardens. He then conceived the idea that the dramatic effect of the songs and impersonations could be heightened if they would be combined with prose dialogues and woven into an interesting plot. He gathered a few singers and rehearsed with them scenarios composed by himself. The first performances in October 1876 initiated the professional Yiddish theater. Encouraged by the enthusiastic reception accorded his performances in Jassy, Goldfaden engaged wandering minstrels and cantors' assistants as additional actors, toured other Rumanian cities, including Bucharest, and then went to Odessa. By 1880 his troupe was giving performances throughout Russia and his phenomenal success was encouraging theatrical ventures by other enterprising actors and librettists. The Yiddish theater expanded and flourished until 1883, when the Russian government, fearing this new mass medium, banned performances in Yiddish. This action compelled authors, actors, and producers to migrate to other lands. Yiddish theaters were established in Paris, London, and New York. In 1887 Goldfaden was invited by some of his actors who had moved to New York to join them, but when he arrived he encountered severe competition from producers who had preceded him and from scriptwriters who were even more prolific than he. He found Europe more congenial and returned to produce and direct performances of his plays in London, Paris, and Lemberg. He returned to the United States in 1903 and spent his last five years in New York. Many of Goldfaden's 60 plays - not all of them published - continued to be adapted by actors and producers and entered into the permanent repertoire of the Yiddish theater. His characters from Schmendrik and Kuni Lemel to Hotzmakh, the good-natured peddler, and Bobbe Yakhne, the malevolent witch, have been real figures to several generations of theatergoers.
