LITERARY ARCHIVE. SOCIAL REFORM. Large archive of more than 1000 pages of typescripts manuscripts mostly unpublished; corrections and notations throughout

3080Together seven three-ring binder notebooks binders worn boards on vol. VI broken off -- retained by us as out of "respect du fonds" -- containing approximately 876 typescript and manuscript pages. TOGETHER WITH: 29 file folders of articles ideas proposals and miscellaneous publishing materials consisting of approximate 300 typescript and manuscript pages housed in a new Hollinger box. TOGETHER WITH: two of Lasker's passports 1921 and 1926 and a large b/w studio portrait photograph undated. An important discovery. This is the private largely unpublished literary archive of the noted social reformer Bruno Lasker 1880-1965 containing well over a thousand pages of typed and hand-written manuscripts. These writings date from 1923 until the year of his death in 1965. Lasker's social work is well known and concerned racial prejudice and justice trafficking and human rights immigration and immigrants' rights poverty in America and economic inequality. The present literary archive is hitherto UNKNOWN; without it a full and balanced assessment of Bruno Lasker's life and work cannot be undertaken. That the materials herein are mostly unpublished is attested by Lasker's own statement in the first of seven folio notebook diaries named "Reflections." In addition to the "Reflections" the archive also contains working typescripts of 29 essays speeches and proposals including 19 writings which were evidently destined for a collection to be entitled "Rational Sympathy" that never appeared. It is instructive to present the transcription of Lasker's handwritten "To My Executors" in its entirety which appears in the seventh and final volume of his "Reflections" diaries: "This is the seventh volume of what might be called a diary though entries never were made with the frequency suggested by that term. It consists of original reflections observations and discussions suggested either by experiences by reading or by verbal colloquies. Only a minute portion of this material therefore has ever entered into literary use i.e. publication and the bulk of it constitutes a continuous though not intentional progression of my major concerns sentiments and ideas over a large part of my life. Or rather it constitutes a collection which represents my un-professional pre-occupations sic. Those connected with my work are more likely to be embodied in memoranda articles prefaces book reviews reports and lectures. These are for the most part either on record as printed documents or in the parallel series of binders much larger in number which has now reached vol. XXX which I call my workbooks and which properly form an appendix to my recorded autobiography made for the Oral History Project at Columbia University and will be deposited with it in the archives of the Butler Library of that institution. NOTE: the 30 volumes were indeed deposited at Columbia University -- Bruno Laster Papers 1923-1951. "The present collection or diary therefore is unpublished literary raw material and on my decease may either be handed to some interested person to be mined for items worth preserving perhaps even for the production -- such as I contemplate myself if I should find myself with enough time energy and self-confidence for such a task -- of an unpretentious volume or two of short essays or may also be appended to my MSS autobiography at Columbia University. Seattle May 8 1957. signed Bruno Lasker." Lasker "Reflections" diaries were written for an audience of just one person: himself. It is clear that again and again Lasker turned to the writings herein for inspiration as is attested by other materials in the present archive SEE FINDING AID. As a social commentator Laske was erudite and penetrating. He observes and elaborates on an unusually broad array of topics SEE FINDING AID and have found ourselves continuously impressed by his intelligence imagination introspection and his command of the English language. The personal nature of the diaries is attested by just one poignant passage in Vol. I namely the entry dated July 26 1925 which in its entirety consists of 18 paragraphs: "Yet but two weeks ago everything seemed so plain; I had the sensation of knowing that all was right that I was encircled by an all-loving power that there was in the world an all-seeing eye comprehending everything comprehending everything there is from the beginning to the end of time that nothing was impossible and therefore nothing pre-determined. I must have known or at least I must have been overpowered by consciousness that the being of this overarching trinity of power was knowable even though I could only see a glimpse of it afar. And that consciousness did not come to me in a state of dreaming but in one of those rare states of unusual clarity when the mind leaps unimpeded over chasms of difficulty. For days after I walked as one who had seen as one who thought he saw -- and then gradually the light grew dimmer and I saw no more. "Yet even in this returning blindness I do not feel as one utterly lost neither worried nor sorrowful; for what I have glimpsed once I know I shall glimpse again and from that lighted cave I shall proceed to other caves as yet unexplored." A sample passage from the same volume of "Reflections" on a very different topic: "These suburban and small-town Negroes are magnificent. They dress well without garishness; their children are clean and well behaved; they are courteous without being abject -- above all they are available for any odd job that needs doing whether it be an extra hand in the kitchen on Jane's wedding day the cleaning of a gutter the hauling of a load of gravel or voting hansome sic Herman into office as overseer of the poor. The question is how long will they remain contented with the modest roles we have assigned to them How long will it be until their bank savings will make them independent of contractors and tradesmen who overcharge them of housewives who too openly and sneeringly despise them of landlords and industrialists who exploit them "Another question is how long will it be until the white Americans with their insane pride in an imaginary Nordic descent will realize that the annual addition to the population they have denied to east and south European peoples or part of it is being made by a race which they deem even lower in the scale of human values" FINDING AID: Reflections Vol. 1: January 24 1924 to September 8 1925.

NB: Lasker writes: "Pages 1 - 96 consisting of observations and reflections in Eastern Asia in 1935-1936 mainly China Japan Java but also including Malaya Indochina Philippines and sea voyages have been incorporated with the documentary material appended to the typewritten record of the tape-recorded autobiography made by the Oral History Project Columbia University and to be deposited in the archives of the Butler Library of that University 1957. No literary use has been made of that material; but since it is largely reportorial and perhaps rather unique because of its informal character and aesthetic as well as sociological appreciation of things seen it seemed more appropriate for preservation in that connection than for the possible implementation of future reflective lectures or articles. ~ BL."

An Old Man Speaks. Lasker defines and refines the fascinating history and sweeping contents of the "Reflections" series for some future reader on a typed "Advertisement" sheet laid into Vol. 1. It bears repeating in full: "This series of seven manuscript volumes - the fifth unfortunately mutilated apparently to provide the main substance for one or more projected volumes of essays "The Good Life" "Science and Religion" etc. - started as a journal or diary. But in the course of time the entries became fewer and longer; and it seems to me that the new title " Reflections" with which I am now relabelling these binders is more appropriate. "This series was preceded by other - handwritten - diaries one or two may inadvertently be preserved together with a thin paper cahier of carbon-copied early letters home from London in my green sailor's chest. These early diary entries are in part excessively sentimental and betray a highly emotional attitude toward my experiences and observations in my early twenties. And even up into the thirties for I distinctly remember a piece written on the birth of my daughter which I later have read with astonishment. "Although it began as a diary and continued as a more or less conscious endeavor to preserve some of my passing thoughts for potential further literary uses this series in the main has been in my mind a substitute for lacking opportunities to express myself in writing on matters of intensive though passing and unprofessional interest. I wrote each piece - usually late at night or in hours of uninterrupted leisure at home - as a sort of editorial addressed to just one reader my future self. The occasions which stimulated such writing ranged from personal experiences to things seen and heard but more and more came to be dominated by my reading in many fields. Many of them carry on a sort of dialogue with some author or other not always in stark disagreement with his views but more often in admiration for him but somehow feeling urged to stress some aspect of the matter which to me he seemed to have neglected or perhaps misinterpreted. In this way I have managed through the years to retain my status in my own eyes at any rate as a writer and social student fully conscious though I have been at all times of my lack of skill and literary grace. "This attitude on my part more fully revealed itself to me when I tried on various occasions spread over many decades to collect some of these minor essays for publication as contributions to some particular field of interest such as the change in moral standards the survival of a truly religious faith when all superstitions have been thrown out of one's conscious awareness of the personal relation to the cosmic forces and so forth. The task it always appeared was beyond my capacity - not because of insuperable technical difaculties but simply because these spontaneous and previously uncorrected entries were too clumsy too half-cocked and sometimes too dull and verbose to lend themselves to rewarding further manipulations - and to publication in any form. In part too intimate and in part roaming over too vast a region of concerns in which I needs must remain an errant amateur traveller these pages essentially remained either intellectual exercises of insufficient substance to be of interest to anyone but their perpetrator or else too way moody to represent even the writer's own thinking about the subject at issue under conditions other than those which had stimulated the initial effort at self-expression. "That the entries gradually peter out is not so much a result of lacking enterprise or mental energy as of the fact that in recent years I have used another outlet for many of my cogitations and reflections: the notes appended to my collection of abstracts on Prophetics - a theme so large as to invite comments on my part on the widest range of topics. -- July 1 1962 Bruno Lasker." The present archive contains Lasker's own design for a possible publication of selections from the "Reflections" SEE FINDING AID Hollinger box folder 13. The title of the proposed work is "Go and Sin No More: Pages from a Sociologist's Diary" alternate title: "Looking at Life: Chosen Leaves from the Diary of a Sociologist to 1950." A truncated version of Lasker's outline follows: Introduction I. Faith and Knowledge / On Human Worth II. Rational Sympathy / Family III. Conflict of Values IV. Contact and Conduct V. Moral Attitudes / Crime VI. Morals and Taste / Parables VII. Citizenship VIII. Social Reform.

It comprises some 5000 pages in 33 binders of abstracts and comments; an index of abstracts by names topics and sub-topics; notes for a substantial bibliography; printed and manuscript materials; and the typed draft of an unpublished book 'Dates of Destiny'" SOURCE: Columbia University Columns XV:1 1965 pp. 40-41.

00A [Isaac Leeser Helps Publish & Promote A Collection of Reform Sermons in Charleston!] Salomon, Gotthold Translated by Anna MaBiblio.com

TWELVE SERMONS DELIVERED IN THE NEW TEMPLE OF THE ISRAELITES AT HAMBURGH. TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN BY ANNA MARIA GOLDSMID. FIRST AMERICAN EDITION

184141441Charleston S. C. : Levin & Tavel 1841. 1st American Edition Original Publisher's Cloth Small 8vo 2 236 pages followed by several unnumbered pages of publisher's advertisements. Singerman 0761 Rosenbach 483. Jacob Rader Marcus the dean of historians of American Jewish history suggests in his work UNITED STATES JEWRY 1776-1985 Detroit 1989 that "The motive that prompted Nathaniel Levin and a Charleston associate to reprint an English translation of the sermons of Gotthold Salomon was apologetic.The book was Twelve Sermons Delivered in the New Temple of the Israelites at Hamburgh. The Hamburg temple in Germany was a liberal Jewish synagog one of the first in Europe. An English translation had been made of the sermons at London in 1839 by Anna Maria Goldsmid the daughter of Sir Isaac Lyon Goldsmid the Anglo-Jewish emancipator and religious liberal. The American reprint appeared two years later. Both editions were intended not only to edify Jews but also to interest and attract non-Jews. It was Levin's hope that these sermons would remove unjust prejudices against the Jew and would present 'the lofty character of the Israelite in its true colors.' A book of this sort would help the Jews put their best foot forward." Interestingly this 1st American edition of Twelve Sermons contains a new preface extolling the religious liberty of America and highlighting the refuge it afforded to the Jews. The new preface is merely signed "L" certainly referring authorship by Isaac Leeser and further supported by the fact that volume is preceded by two pages of advertisements for works by Leeser even though his works had no connection to the Charleston Publisher of this work. That Leeser who would become American Orthodoxy's greatest warrior against the Reform would offer a preface to and advertise his works in a collection of sermons from the breakaway Liberal Hamburg Temple in Germany suggests that he did not yet see the coming threat from the Reform movement. At the time of printing in Charleston Gustavus Poznanski 5 years into his term as rabbi and still somewhat traditional was just starting to make what felt like radical reforms as he "excised the Resurrection of the Dead and abolished the Second day of festivals five years before the same was done at the Breslau conference." America's first Reform import from Germany and it's first synagogue established as Reformed Har Sinai Congregation in Baltimore was still a year away from birth. Indeed the official term "Reform" did even come into use to describe Liberal Judaism except as a general adjective until 1845 even in Germany. Leeser's involvement in this publication merits further study as it is not mentioned in the bibliographies nor in Sussman's comprehensive "Isaac Leeser and the Making of American Judaism." Indeed in the 1840s at the time of this printing "there was a major split in Congregation Beth Elohim which many historians of American Jewish history see as the beginning of the American Reform movement. The conflict began after the introduction of an organ into the synagogue when it was rebuilt following a fire in 1840. The series of conflicts between Reform and Traditionalist elements in Beth Elohim resulted in a complicated dispute between the President who favored Reform and the Board of Trustees which was controlled by the Traditionalists. The President refused to call the Board of Trustees to meet as was required by the synagogue's constitution because he knew they would admit new traditionalist members and obtain control of the congregation. The Board ignored him and met on their own a move which the Reformers challenged in court. The resulting case State v. Ancker has become known as an early example of U. S. Courts refusing to intervene in complex religious questions" Wikipedia. Salomon 1784-1862 was the preacher of the new Reform Hamburg Temple. His "sermons modeled like those of other preachers on Protestant examples were praised by his contemporaries notably H. Heine." Goldsmid 1805-1889 a daughter of Sir Isaac Lyon Goldsmid was a London author poetess translator educator and communal worker JE. Includes bibliographical references. SUBJECTS: Jewish sermons.

2 ouvrages reliés en un volume in-8 (195 x 124 mm), plein veau marbré de l'époque, dos lisse orné de compartiments fleuronnés et cloisonnés, pièces de titre de maroquin bordeaux, triples filets d'encadrement sur les plats, roulette sur les coupes, tranches jaspées. 1- Édition originale, rare. Le premier essai politique de Robespierre, alors jeune avocat âgé de 26 ans, qu’il composa en réponse à un concours ouvert par la Société royale littéraire de Metz en 1784, et pour lequel il obtint une médaille d’or ainsi qu’un prix de 400 livres. En homme des Lumières disciple de Montesquieu et de Beccaria, sur un mode modéré mais en un style lyrique et enflammé qui sera sa marque, Robespierre critique l’arbitraire de la justice de son temps et soumet un plan de réforme de la justice pénale. Il propose de bannir le déshonneur imposé aux familles des condamnés, plaide pour la suppression de la confiscation de leurs biens, pour l’égalité devant le châtiment et pour que les bâtards puissent accéder à la condition de citoyen à part entière. (Martin & Walter, 29526/1). 2- Edition originale. L'essai, en tête du volume, composé par le juriste et académicien Pierre-Louis Lacretelle (1751-1824) fut couronné en même temps que celui de Robespierre. Devançant celui-ci, Lacretelle obtint le premier prix, Robespierre le second, mais on décida que la récompense serait la même. Si les deux mémoires comportaient "nombre d'idées semblables", de celui de Lacretelle, on vanta "la hauteur de ses considérations philosophiques et morales, la sagacité de son esprit, la justesse de ses idées et l’humanité de ses sentiments". En 1823, en publiant ses Œuvres complètes, Lacretelle revint sur cette rencontre avec Robespierre : "Rien, dans ce début, ne promettait le personnage qu’on a vu sept ans après. On pourrait croire qu’il s’ignorait encore lui-même. Il faut avoir vu toute une révolution pour savoir à quel point elle peut transformer un homme, ou plutôt développer en lui des poisons cachés et encore sans fermentation". Infimes accrocs à un mors. Très bel exemplaire, très frais, grand de marges, très bien relié à l'époque.

[OTTOMAN SATYRIC MAGAZINE OF THE SECOND REVOLUTION PERIOD] Kalem. Journal humoristique paraissant le jeudi.= Kalem. Persembe günleri nesrolunur, edebî mizah gazetesi. No: 1 - 130 [SET].

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Handsome fine contemporary brown half-leather bindings. Six raised bands to spine, title, and issue numbers gilt lettered, floral decorations in compartments. 4to. (30 x 24 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters) and French. All pages with illustrations in text or full-page illustrations, all numbers with an Islamic numbering system, reversed collation, with two title pages: Ottoman recto and in French verso, numbers 35, 41, 44, 45 with title pages in color. Rare poster is coming with the set inside the volumes as a supplement to the magazine. Extremely rare togetherness of the complete set of 130 issues of the Ottoman Turkish-French satirical magazine "Kalem", richly illustrated with thousands of attractive illustrations and cartoons, started its publication life with the end of Sultan Abdulhamid II's repression regime in 1908. The collection provides an invaluable resource, reflecting the changes in society after the Second Constitutional Revolution in New Ottoman State. The magazine was published weekly in 130 numbers between 21 August 1324 (3 September 1908) and 16 June 1327 (29 June 1911), starting immediately after the Second Ottoman Constitutional Revolution. The magazine was a mixture of satire and a saloon magazine, focusing on politics, social life, and revolution. The only continuously running part of the magazine was Haftalik Dedikodu (Weekly Gossip). The founders of the magazine were Salah (Selah) Cimcoz (1875-1947), a Turkish politician, lawyer, and owner of Kalem Newspaper, and Celal Esat Arseven (1876-1971) a Turkish painter, writer, and parliamentarian. He was the first to introduce the history of art and urbanistic architecture to Turkey.

DA COSTA (Uriel), LIMBORCH (Philipp van)MareMagnum

Exemplar humanæ vitæ. [In: LIMBORCH (Philipp van). De veritate religionis christianæ amica collatio cum erudito judæo].

In-4, plein vélin rigide de l'époque, dos titré à la plume, (16), 364, (14) p. Edition princeps de la célèbre autobiographie testamentaire d'Uriel da Costa ('Exemplar humanae vitae'), composée à la veille de son suicide en 1640 et publiée "presque par hasard" (Daniel Lacerda) quarante-sept années après sa mort. Elle est insérée entre les pages 341 et 354 d'un recueil qu'un ministre calviniste arminien, Philip Van Limborch professeur à Amsterdam (1633-1712), consacre à la défense de la "vérité de la religion chrétienne", en discussion avec un Juif érudit, Isaac Orobio de Castro (c.1617-1687), lui-même réfugié du Portugal à Amsterdam. Éditée d'après un manuscrit et peut-être révisée, "Une vie humaine" est suivie de sa réfutation par Limborch. Né au sein d'une famille portugaise marrane, Uriel Da Costa (1585-1640) s'installa à Amsterdam en 1617 et revint au judaïsme, mais il entra bientôt en conflit avec la synagogue. Soumis à une humiliante pénitence publique, il se suicida. Ce document demeurait l'unique seule source d'informations sur Uriel da Costa jusqu'à la découverture récente (1990), à la bibliothèque d'Amsterdam, d'un exemplaire unique d'un autre de ses textes que l'on croyait perdu ("Exame das tradições fariseas") et qui le place aux côtés de Spinoza, dix années avant la condamnation de celui-ci, parmi les victimes du durcissement doctrinaire des autorités juives d'Amsterdam. "Cette autobiographie écrite par Uriel da Costa en 1640 avant de se suicider, reflète toute la culture et toutes les interrogations religieuses de cet esprit qui passa du christianisme-marranisme au judaïsme puis au sadducéisme, enfin au déisme vénérant la Nature. Juif portugais d'Amsterdam, Gabriel, devenu Uriel da Costa, reflète - lui et toute sa famille, affiliée à celle de Spinoza - les recherches de cette société des nouveaux convertis du Portugal et des pays occidentaux au XVII° siècle" (Béatrice Leroy). Cf. I.S. Revah, H. Méchoulan et coll., 'Des Marranes à Spinoza', Vrin, 1995, passim. (Bamberger, 'The printed literature of Spinozism', n° 67. Fürst, 'Bibliotheca judaica', I, p. 17). Quelques rousseurs éparses. Petite trace de restauration de vélin au dos. Très bon exemplaire, très bien conservé dans sa première reliure hollandaise de vélin rigide.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original color manuscript calendar prepared on a fine special paper with 'ahar'. 36x22,5 cm. In Ottoman script (Turkish with Arabic letters). 2 p. Several ink stains on paper, chipped on extremities. A very good manuscript. It shows astronomic situations, locations of planets and stars, and climates in 1324 [AD 1908]. It starts with high praise to Sultan Abdülhamid II with an old style of color moon & crescent icon. Sealed by Mehmed Pasazâde A. Ihsan. On the verso of paper, can be seen detailed calendar and details of 'ruzname'. Written on 'printed' down of the paper, probably it's prepared for the printing, therefore it's understood that Ihsan and Refet were thinking to print this 'taqwim'. Prepared in the year of the Second Constitutional Regime (II. Mesrutiyet) which was Abdul Hamid II's fall came as a result of the 1908 Young Turk Revolution, and the Young Turks put the 1876 Constitution back into effect. It seems, it's prepared before fall of the Sultan, and for the present to the Sultan. The Second Constitutional Period spanned from 1908 until after World War I when the Ottoman Empire was dissolved. "The starting year of the Hijrî calendar (al-taqwim al-hijri), the fundamental Islamic lunar calendar still in use among Muslims until today, is 622 CE. Its beginning corresponds to the Hijra or emigration of Prophet Muhammed and his followers from Mecca to Medina. It is based on the revolution of the moon around the Earth and consists of twelve months of 29 or 30 days: Muharram (30), Safar (29), Rabî' al-awwal (30), Rabi' al-thani (29), Jumâda al-awwal (30), Jumâda al-thani (29), Rajab (30), Sha'ban (29), Ramadhan (30), Shawwal (29), Dhul-'l-qi'da (30) and Dhul-hijja (29 or 30). The lunar year consists of 354 days, which is 11 days less than the solar year, and every 33 years it falls one year behind the Gregorian calendar. The discrepancy with the solar year, which follows the seasons, meant that Muslim countries also used the solar calendar, and some calendars drawn up by astronomers include the dates according to the European Gregorian calendar named after Pope Gregory XIII in 1582. Ottoman Turkey used both the Islamic lunar calendar and a solar calendar known as the Rumî or Roman calendar, which was based on the Julian calendar introduced since the times of Julius Caesar in 46 BC. The Roman calendar was inherited from the Byzantines and was used by the Ottomans for the taxation of agricultural revenues. The year according to the Rumî or Julian calendar began on 1 March, and the Ottomans took the starting year to be that of the Hijra. To make up for the gain of 11 days made by the solar Rumî calendar over the Islamic calendar, a leap year was deducted from the Rumî calendar every 33 years. A rûzname is a set of tables giving the first days of the months in both the Islamic and Rumî calendars, the date on which the sun enters each sign of the zodiac, and eclipses of the sun and moon. Also known as takvîm-i dâimî (perpetual calendar) or takvîm-i devr-i dâim (calendar of perpetual motion), the ruzname were permanently valid whatever the year. There is no evidence that such calendars were produced in pre-Ottoman times, and they may, therefore, be regarded as a type unique to Ottoman Turkey.".

Rarissime première édition française, dans la traduction de François de Belleforest, "plus rare et plus recherchée que l'édition latine originale publiée à Bâle la même année" (Blackmer). Cet ouvrage demeure l’une des sources contemporaines fondamentales sur le conflit qui opposa, de 1570 à 1573, l'Empire ottoman à la République de Venise appuyée par la Sainte-Ligue, sur l’histoire de la conquête Chypre (1570-1571) par les Turcs et sur les relations entre l’Empire ottoman et Venise, l’auteur ayant été un protagoniste direct des événements et ayant eu accès à des documents inédits et de première main. Important représentant de l’historiographie humaniste, Pietro Bizzari (1530-1584) se convertit très tôt au protestantisme et quitta Venise. Entré en relation avec les principales personnalités de l’Europe des humanistes, il exerça d’importantes responsabilités universitaires, éditoriales, politiques et diplomatiques, à Wittenberg, en Angleterre sur la recommandation de Philipp Melanchthon, auprès d’Edouard VI, de James Stuart et de la reine Elizabeth Ier, puis à Bâle, à Anvers au sein du cercle de Plantin et auprès de l’électeur Auguste de Saxe au service duquel il entra.

First edition. Original Gilt leather binding, 12mo, 263 pages. All edges glit. Published by Wise as third and last volume of his grand project for American-Jewish liturgy titled "Minhag America", this final volume is a collection of liturgical hymns, psalms and prayers in English and German. Singerman 2109.The original two volumes of the Minhag America prayer book had both been published in 1857, one with Hebrew-English text (Prayer Book for Public and Private Worship) and the other with Hebrew-German text (Gebet-Buch fur den offentlichen Gottesdienst und die Privat-Andacht). Wise here indicates that with this third volume includes additional new writings by Wise and others. Text in English and German on facing pages. Also includes detailed service instructions, religious notes, a table of torah readings and a table of contents. Wises Minhag America would become the standard liturgy of American Refom congragations from its original publication until the introduction of the Union Prayer Book in the 1890s. Of the three volumes issued in the 1860s, this Hymnal-Psalter remains the scarcest, far, far less common than the volumes for Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kipur, reflecting the centrality in American Reform Judaism of the High Holidays above other forms of daily liturgy.
