1910006225Berlin: Paul Cassirer 1910. Limited First Edition Thus. Vellum. Near Fine. No. 46 of 60 on Imperial Japan Japan vellum and a total limited edition of 310 copies. Large 4to. 31.5 by 24 cm. 83 2 pp. With 35 lithographic plates six of which are hand-colored and nine of which are signed by Pascin. Also signed by him on the limitation page. The cover also has a partly colored illustration by Pascin done on the vellum. This book was Pascin's first book project. The satirical Heine novel first published in 1833 actually was the inspiration for Wagner's "Der Fliegende Hollander" or "The Flying Dutchman". Pascin was born in Bulgaria was active in Paris for much of his career although becoming an American citizen and working in the U.S. as well. The illustrations in this book have a deliberately naive quality almost as if done by a child. Condition: short tear of vellum along lower front joint 2 to 3 cm in length. Typical yet slight bowing of the vellum and a touch of lifting of the vellum from the boards. Minor darkening of the vellum leaves within along the edges. <br/><br/> Paul Cassirer hardcover books
19231344Heine Heinrich. 1799-1856. <b>Der Rabbi von Bacherach</b> mit Originallithographien von Max Liebermann. Berlin: Im Prophlaen Verlag 1923. #279 of 400 with signed frontispiece and limitation page by Liebermann and 17 full or partial page lithographs in black. The first 100 were printed on Japan Vellum. <br /><br />Folio. Publisher's half-morocco with title in gold with yellow board sides bearing a lithograph on the upper cover. Printed on laid paper. Original open slipcase with paper label joints split. 58p. Fine copy with a touch of wear to spine ends. <b>The Rabbi of Bacharach</b> set in the middle ages is Heine's unfinished novel that describes the ordeal of Rabbi Abraham and his wife in the small town of Bacharach Germany . <br /><br />Gentiles come to the Passover Seder in order to secretly plant a body of a Christian child. They will accuse the Rabbi of ritual murder. Then when he is taken away they will rob his home. The rabbi and his "schönne" beautiful Sarah manage to leave their home during an interval in the seder and run to the river docks. They are then transported for a fee down the Mainz to Frankfurt where they enter into the Jewish quarter without incident. In that quarter life is fully described with all its variety and color. <br /><br /> This unfinished story remains popular because it pictures life in the medieval Jewish community with detailed description of worship customs and pecking orders as well as dress manners and a variety of activities within the Jewish quarter. Liebermann's realistic sketchbook style depicts scenes with a charcoal drawing like simplicity. The stark flat depiction creates an atmosphere of dark foreboding. <br /><br />The 19th century poet Emma Lazarus wrote a biographical sketch of Heine that includes commentary on The Rabbi of Bacharach: "During the period of his earnest labors for Judaism Heine had buried himself with fervid zeal in the lore of his race and had conceived the idea of a prose-legend the Rabbi of Bacharach illustrating the persecutions of his people during the middle ages. Heine one of the most subjective of poets treats this theme in a purely objective manner. He does not allow himself a word of comment much less of condemnation concerning the outrages he depicts. He paints the scene as an artist not as the passionate fellow-sufferer and avenger that he is. But what subtle eloquence lurks in that restrained cry of horror and indignation which never breaks forth and yet which we feel through every line gathering itself up like thunder on the horizon for a terrific outbreak at the end!" <br /><br />Refer: Lazarus Emma 1849-1887 From the Biographical Sketch of the life of Heinrich Heine reprinted in The Rabbi of Bacharach by Heinrich Heine.
