Epic poem, written in octaves, drawing strongly on Ukrainian folk tradition written while Osmachka was in a displaced persons camp, and a member of The Artistic Ukrainian Movement (MUR) . "The objectives of MUR were to gather Ukrainian writers scattered by the Second World War, to organize the publication of their works, and to become a center, within a comprehensive national ideology, for creative dialogues among members representing various styles and literary aims. MUR played a positive role in that it managed to organize almost all of the noted emigre writers and provide them with a forum for discussion while it stimulated an interest in literature among the public at large."

Osmachka's last collection of poetry, before wholly dedicating himself to prose focused on exploring what he saw to be the genocidal destruction of Ukraine by the Soviet Union. Kytytsi Chasu (Bouquets of Time, 1953) and selected poems published as Iz-pid Svitu: Poetychni Tvory (From Under the World: Poetic Works, 1954) completed [Osmachka's] poetic oeuvre, which is characterized by expressionistic imagery, frequent dumalike rhythms, and a ponderous tone.

Original Wrappers. 8vo. 166 pages. 21 cm. First Edition. In Ukrainian. "Although his first poems were written in 1916, Osmachka began his literary career while he was a student at the Kyiv Institute of People's Education from 1920 to 1923. He belonged to the literary organizations Aspys and Lanka [Later known as 'Maisternia Revoliutsiinoho Slovaâ' (Workshop of the Revolutionary Word) or MARS] and published his first collection of poetry, Krucha (The Precipice) , in 1922; it was followed by two more collections, Skytski vohni (The Scythian Fires, 1925) and Klekit ([Crane's] Clacking, 1929) . Like other members of MARS he was attacked and arrested for his 'unpolitical' literary works, but managed to save himself from execution by feigning insanity. During the 1930s he faced constant persecution by the authorities and was unable to publish any works. During the Second World War he fled to Western Ukraine, then to displaced persons camps in Germany, and finally to the United States. Osmachka's personal ordeal had lasting effects on him, and until his death he suffered from a persecution complex. Nonetheless he resumed his literary career in 1943 in Lviv with the publication of his fourth collection of poetry, Suchasnykam (To My Contemporaries) . In the displaced persons camps, where he was a member of the MUR literary organization, he published his epic poem, written in octaves, Poet (Poet, 1946) , as well as his first prose work, Starshyi Boiaryn (The Best Man, 1946)."

Original wraps. 8vo. 246, [2] pages. 23 cm. Serial publication. In Hungarian, with Yiddish. OMZSA Yearbook. The Országos Magyar Zsidó Segíto Akció (National Hungarian Jewish Aid Association; OMZSA) was a general assistance organization for the large Budapest community. The OMZSA was involved with cultural, legal, and economic battles on behalf of the (religious) Jewish Budapest community. For example, a series of drawings by the artist Imre Amos (1907-1945) entitled Zsidó ünnepek (Jewish Holidays) , representing the Jewish holidays in the shadow of annihilation, became emblematic for Hungarian Jewry. (The series appeared in 150 copies published in 1940 by the Országos Magyar Zsidó Segito Akció [National Hungarian Jewish Aid Action]. ) (YIVO encyclopedia) . According to OCLC, four issues of the yearbook are known to exist (the earliest issue is titled OMZSA Naptár OMZSA Calendar) . This issue contains a calendar of the days and holidays for the year (In Hungarian and Yiddish) , and extensive literary (poems, letters, short stories) and journalistic pieces by dozens of writers and editors from the Budapest community. For many of these authors, this would be their last published work. [T]he Germans occupied the country on 19 March 1944, Gestapo chief Adolf Eichmann set up his SS command in Budapest, and the Budapest Jewish Council was established. What had been an extended process of stigmatization, ghettoization, deportation, and murder elsewhere was greatly concentrated and executed with great efficiency and speed in Hungary. The deportation and gassing of almost 440, 000 provincial Jews at Auschwitz-Birkenau began in mid-May and was swiftly accomplished by July as a result of full cooperation of the Hungarian authorities. Only intense diplomatic pressure threatening harsh postwar retribution caused Regent Horthy to call a halt to the deportations on 6 July, giving Budapest Jewry a temporary reprieve. In Budapest, a series of measures increasingly placed limitations on Jews who remained in the capital. Restrictions were placed on using the public transport; later telephones, bicycles, and cars were confiscated, and an evening curfew was imposed. From 3 April, all persons defined as Jews were obligated to wear a yellow star on their outer clothing The reverses suffered by the Germans emboldened Horthy to announce in mid-October his intention to withdraw Hungary from the war. With German backing, Ferenc Szálasi and his Arrow Cross Party seized power on 15 October. Budapests Jews were now threatened by a far more vicious regime whose radical antisemitic ideology was wholly in tune with Hitlers apocalyptic vision. Forced death marches began on 20 October and along with German deportations, affected some 75, 000 Budapest Jews. The city rapidly descended into chaos as roving Arrow Cross bands combed the streets rounding up Jews. The first murders in the streets began on 12 November; the first executions took place by the riverbank on 23 November. (YIVO Encyclopedia) Subjects: Jews - Hungary - Periodicals. Jewish almanacs.

(FT) Original paper wrappers. 8vo. 54 pages. 24 cm. First edition. In Yiddish. Title page in English: The life and writings of Dr. Philip Friedman: short bio-bibliographical survey. This memorial work outlines the biography and writings of the holocaust survivor and historian Dr. Phillip Friedman. From the Yivo Major Collections description of his work: Historian Philip Friedman collected documentation on the Holocaust and wrote extensively on the subject. He served as the first director of the Central Jewish Historical Commission in Poland in the post-war period, as consultant to the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal, and as director of the YIVO-Yad Vashem bibliographical series on the Holocaust. His papers include eyewitness accounts collected from Holocaust survivors by the Central Jewish Historical Commission in Poland. From a New York Times Article (Holocaust Historian written by Lucy S. Dawidowicz; January 11, 1981) : In July 1944 Philip Friedman was one of a mere thousand survivors of the 150, 000 Jews of his native Lvov. Before the war he had already become known as a historian of Polish Jewry, but thenceforth, until his death in New York at 59 in 1960, he dedicated himself to the history of the Jews in that crucible of death which we now call the holocaust. [ ] Philip Friedman has rightfully been called the father of holocaust history. Except for Emanuel Ringelblum, who did not survive the war, Friedman was the first to organize the collecting of records about Jewish life and death under German wartime occupation. Friedman stimulated survivors to write memoirs and urged them to gather letters, photographs, relics and any remains that would serve future historians. Subjects: Friedman, Philip, 1901-1960.

ill., br. Nel 1933 Adotf HitLer divenne cancelliere della Germania. Poco dopo, tutti i partiti politici e la libertà di stampa erano solo un ricordo, e il dominio di Hitler sembrava completo. Eppure, nel giro di pochi anni, un improbabile gruppo di cospiratori - insegnanti, politici, teologi, persino un falegname - avrebbe tentato, per molte vie e ripetutamente, di porre fine al regno genocida del Führer. "Uccidere Hitler" restituisce, con il ritmo serrato di un thriller, il drammatico resoconto dei tentativi ingegnosi, nobili, e fallimentari, messi in atto da pochi uomini e donne coraggiosi che si impegnarono in prima persona per provare a cambiare il corso della storia, e getta una luce brillante e di speranza, persino redentiva, sui giorni più bui che l'umanità abbia attraversato.

Original Publishers Cloth. 8vo. 314 pages. 22 cm. First American Edition. Fiction. On the morning of the Allied victory in Europe at the end of the Second World War, the Polish inmates of a slave labor camp at Papenburg, near the Dutch border of Germany, exultantly throw off their shackles. The Camp of All Saints becomes, overnight, an island of victors in the ocean of defeated Germany. This is their last victory. Wild rejoicing is followed by a saturnalia of reprisals when by rape, plunder, torture and murder the Poles exact vengeance from their former captors. Then the victors relapse into the quiescent servility of the stateless, to wait vainly for visas to a new life. And the Germans, technically defeated, flourish while the DPs at the camp despair. jacket. Translated by Norbert Guterman. Very Good Condition in like jacket. A beautiful copy. (HOLO2-93-10)
