Stiff wrappers. 12mo. 54 pages. 20 cm. First and only edition. In English with some German. Reports and Addresses of the Annual Meeting of the American Federation of Jews from Central Europe. The American Federation of Jews from Central Europe was the central representative agency of over thirty local and national organizations established by Jewish victims of Nazism from Central Europe in the United States. It was incorporated in New York in 1941 to safeguard their rights and to sponsor social service programs. The Annual Report from 1956 contains a central essay, After Ten Years in Germany which details the overall dismal state of German consciousness, the fact that anti-semitism is still very present, the experiences of German Jews, the many hundreds if not thousands of war criminals who have not faced sentencing or even arrest, the lack of direction in the U. N for truly attempting to prosecute for genocide, etc. From the introductory remarks: Since our Annual Meeting many rather important things have developed: The new Federal Indemnification Law was passed by the German Parliament and published on June 29, 1956; a new decree has been issued by the Boon government regulating the claims of former officials and employees of Jewish communities and organizations in Germany; and through our effort a General Ruling has been issued by the Treasury Department in Washington according to which all indemnification payments, including pensions, received from Germany are not taxable under the Federal Internal Revenue Code.

1950/51. 1st edition. Original Cloth in the rare illustrated dust jacket. 8vo, 385 pages. 23 cm. In the original Hebrew. Book of Holocaust poetry published just after the Holocaust by one of the greatest 20th-century Hebrew and Yiddish poets. Leah Orent notes that "On Tisha b'Av, the day of collective mourning for Jewish national disasters both ancient and modern, it has become customary to read Holocaust literature. Greenberg's Rehovot ha-Nahar is an epic Holocaust lamentation, published in 1951. Reading a representative selection from the text, we . Examine how the poet's private voice merges with that of his persona as spokesperson for the Jewish people, addressing a silent God in heaven and confronting the murderers on earth. We consider the speaker's struggle to balance the guilt of a survivor with his sense of prophetic vocation. Ultimately, the collection articulates a vision of Jewish history flowing like an eternal river from Abraham to Sinai through the horrors of the Holocaust towards the revival of the kingdom of Israel and messianic redemption" (2014) . Indeed, Greenberg's poems in this collection are cited by, for example, leading Holocaust scholar David S. Wyman in "The World Reacts to the Holocaust" (Baltimore, 1996, see for example page 922) .

1st edition, original wrappers, 4to, 28 cm. [8] pages. Includes two articles by Rosenthal: 45 years after the liberation of Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen and The unvanquished sector of the Warsaw Ghetto: its school system. He talks about the Jewish Demands After the Holocaust, saying that [t]he Jewish approach was different. The Jews did not confine their demands merely to emigration; they connected them with the complex questions of Jewish national homelessness. Their demand was not limited to socio-economic assistance; they wanted a deeper look into the causes which had decimated the Jewish people to a degree and in a manner never before experienced by any other people in the world. In short, they did not present the international community with another refugee problem, or a Jewish Displaced Persons problem, but rather with the problem of the security of the entire Jewish people as revealed by the Holocaust. They sought a national-historical meaning for the Jewish fate during this period- and they found it in the struggle for the establishment of the State of Israel.

The Defender of Ha' Aretz (translated from the original) by Rabbi Dr. S. M. Leherman. Bachad was a religious Zionist youth movement in pre-war Germany called Brit Chalutzim Datiim which shortened its name to its initial letters Bachad. Its members prepared themselves for Aliya. A group of them came over to England among the refugees who were permitted to enter this country in the years immediately before the war. They were accommodated in a castle in Wales [Gwrych Castle] and set up Hachshara centres in Bromsgrove and other places, as well as a Merkaz Limmud in Manchester to which members came from the Hachsharah centres for periods of three or six months for intensive Jewish studies. Later on a farm was bought at Thaxted in Essex which became not only a model Hachsharah centre but very quickly a successful agricultural venture which at one time won first prize for having the best milk yielding cow in Essex!

Title translates into English as, Rabbi Ephraim Elncaoua (The Rabbi of Tlemcen) 1360-1442. Scarce Holocaust-era publication about Rabbi Ephraim ben Israel Alnaqua (1360-1442) here published in Tlemcen itself. Alnaqua was a physician, rabbi, theological writer, and founder of the Jewish community at Tlemçen, North Africa According to a legend, Alnaqua escaped from the Spanish Inquisition, which had martyred his father and mother at the stake, and came to Maghreb mounted on a lion, using a serpent as a halter. Azulai (refered) to him as a miracle-worker. Alnaqua succeeded, after all other physicians had failed, in curing the only daughter of a king of the Zayyanid dynasty. Refusing the reward of gold and silver offered him by the king, he begged only that the Jews living near Tlemçen might be united in it. In this way the community was formed. Alnaqua's first care was to establish a large synagogue: this is still in existence (as of 1906) , and bears his name. Above the rabbi's chair, on which the verse Jer. Xvii.12 is engraved, a lamp burns perpetually. Alnaqua's grave, surrounded by those of his family, is in the old cemetery: it is sacred to North African Jews, and (as of 1906) is frequently visited by pilgrims from all Algeria (Wikipedia, 2016) No holdings worldwide on OCLC.
