20150521Tel-Aviv, Beit Hatfutsot (Museum of Jewish People), 2015. First and only edition. This is a catalogue of an exposition of paintings and artworks by Eliahou Eric Bokobza, with explanatory texts in English. In-4, 308 x 250 mm, 141 (3) pp. Bradel-style hardcover with colorful boards. Title written in Hebrew on spine. Printed on couché paper. Foreword by Orit Shaham-Gover, text "Kol Israel Haverim (All Jews are Friends): Multiple Jewish Identities in the Work of Eric Bokobza" by Smadar Sheffi. "Bokobza grapples with the weighty concept of kol Yisrael haverim and the contrasting elements of what he calls his “mixed identity”—his Tunisian-French-Israeli heritage, Oriental and Occidental cultures, his experience with religion and mysticism as a secular Jew— in “United Colors.” The exhibit is modeled after traditional museum exhibitions of Judaica, said Bokobza, which typically divide Jewish ritual objects into Jewish holiday and life cycle sections... “In each painting, I’m showing what my secular experience as a Jew in Israel was like” he said." (The Times of Israel, "The artist whose life began with Elijah", Zahava Presser, 30 July 2015)
1982486New York, Norton, 1982 [1950]. Abridged edition of Adorno et al.'s landmark study. A duodecimo softcover book of 130 x 195 mm; (xxv) 493 pp. + 3 pp. of catalog. With a foreword for the Abridged Edition, a foreword by editor Max Horkheimer, numerous tables and figures throughout. Index at the end of the book. "Since its first publication in 1951, when it was hailed as a monumental study which blazes new trails in the investigation of prejudice, this book has remained an essential document for the modern world. Written after the single most evil and deliberate act of the century, it undertook the challenging task of determining scientifically what personality traits characterized the phenomenom of authoritarianism and what internal and external forces allowed for its development." Front cover gapes a little, some rubbing on the front cover and tail, a blue pencil mention at the bottom of the half-title page, paper slightly yellowed.
