A very rare copy of this classic of Medieval Jewish philosophy presenting the fears of Spanish Jews faced with two powerful religions Christianity and Islam. Written in 1140 in Arabic the Kuzari is couched in the form of a dialogue in five books. Charles Touati in his 1994 preface to the text summarizes the narrative thread of the work thus: «The king of the Khazars or Kuzari tormented by the religious question interrogates in turn a philosopher a Christian theologian and a Muslim one. Disappointed in their answers he feels he must turn to a learned man of the mocked and vilified minority a Rabbi who ends up convincing him at which the king converts to Judaism and continues his studies with the aid of this teacher.» This apologia allowed Juda Halevi to critique the appeal of philosophy Christianity and Islam for his contemporaries. According to him «philosophy denies all possibility of dialogue between Man and God and does not understand the religious phenomenon» ibid. Right from his starting point a proof of the existence of God he believes that we need only look to history and the revelation of God on Mount Sinai witnessed by thousands. Christianity and Islam are for him nothing but forgeries of Judaism: «they jeer at the humiliations and suffering of the Jews without realizing that they exalt in the founder of their own religions precisely that humiliation and suffering» ibid. The Kuzari is an emblematic text in the sense that it calls for the exiled community to return to Zion rather than submit. «It is better to leave everything and go back to Zion and there regain Divine favor instead of wearing ourselves out winning the favor of gentiles which in any case we will never have» ibid.

The work presents 30 questions or "problems" concerning God's creation of the Earth which Menasseh tries to answer and explain citing or referring to passages of the Tenach. Problems include "on which day were demons created" and "was there another world or earth before God created this one". The preliminaries including an important poem by Caspar Barlaeus which caused the Amsterdam authorities to consider the reintroduction of censorship for Jewish publications.

Dissertatio de Fragilitate Humana

164269492Amsterdam: Printed by the Author 1642. Full Description: MENASSEH BEN ISRAEL. Dissertatio de Fragilitate Humana ex Lapsu Adami Deque Divino in Bono Opere Auxilio. Amsterdam: Printed by the Author 1642. First edition. Small octavo 5 3/4 x 3 1/2 inches; 146 x 90 mm. 16 141 1 errata pp. Text in Latin interspersed with Hebrew. A woodcut device on title-page. Woodcut initials. Bound after: MENASSEH BEN ISRAEL. De Resurrectione Mortuorum Libri III. Amsterdam: Printed by the Author 1636. First edition. Small octavo . 22 133 11 137-241 11 245-346 6 index pp. Text in Latin interspersed with Hebrew. The woodcut printer's device on the title-page is a 'magical square' in Hebrew letters. Woodcut initials. Full contemporary vellum. Front inner hinge cracked but firm. Spine with torn paper label titled in ink manuscript. Some ink call numbers on spine but no other library markings. Vellum a bit soiled. Title-page of Dissertatio is backed with loss to fore-edge margin but not affecting text. Leaf A2 of the same book with repair to top margin just touching headline. Leaf T2 in Resurrectione with small closed tear touching some letters but with no loss. Front pastedown with bookplate from Rochester Theological Seminary. Overall very good. "Dissertatio de Fragilitate Humana ex Lapsu Adami" or "Dissertation on the Fragility of Man from the Fall of Adam" is a work in which Menasseh disputed the Christian doctrine of original sin. The work was also published in Latin in the same year. "As per many theological works by Amsterdam scholar and Hebrew printer Menasseh ben Israel Dissertatio de Fragilitate Humana was directed primarily to a Gentile audience. Dedicated to Gerbrandt Anslo a Christian Hebraist who was a pupil of Menasseh this study focuses upon the issue of predestination. In opposition to the Christian doctrine of Original Sin Menasseh was a staunch proponent of the traditional Jewish teaching that Man is born into the world pure and innocent." Kestenbaum and Company. De Resurrectione Mortuorum Libri III or 'Three books on the resurrection of the dead' is in Latin which suggests it was for a Christian audience. A Spanish version also exists however which indicates that this text was also written for a Jewish audience which in 1636 was split by theological dissent. This and the Sefer Nishmat hayim can be seen as a response to the challenges of Uriel Acosta 1585-1640. Acosta was a sceptic philosopher who in 1624 had published 'An Examination of the Traditions of the Pharisees'. Acosta was suggesting that rabbis were descended from the Pharisees. The Pharisees were theologically opposed by the Sadducees. Menasseh notes that his work is written "contra Zaducaeos" "against the Sadducee" almost certainly a reference to Acosta. Acosta questioned the idea of the immortality of the soul regarding it as a concept invented by the rabbis without any biblical foundation." University of Leeds. "Menasseh ben Israel 1604-1657 was among the most accomplished and cosmopolitan rabbis of his time and a pivotal intellectual figure in early modern Jewish history. He was one of the three rabbis of the "Portuguese Nation" in Amsterdam a community that quickly earned renown worldwide for its mercantile and scholarly vitality. Born in Lisbon Menasseh and his family were forcibly converted to Catholicism but suspected of insincerity in their new faith. To avoid the horrors of the Inquisition they fled first to southwestern France and then to Amsterdam where they finally settled. Menasseh played an important role during the formative decades of one of the most vital Jewish communities of early modern Europe and was influential through his extraordinary work as a printer and his efforts on behalf of the readmission of Jews to England." Menasseh ben Israel Rabbi of Amsterdam by Steven Nadler. "Menasseh ben Israel bridged the Jewish and the Christian worlds. He was a rabbi a scholar and a publisher who authored and printed works in Latin Portuguese Spanish and Hebrew. He also collaborated with Rembrandt who etched his portrait. Menasseh ben Israel is particularly interesting to Hebrew scholars and librarians. He revolutionised Hebrew printing and made Amsterdam the capital of Hebrew publishing. He helped create a new standard of Hebrew typography that became widely known imitated and pirated as "Defus Amsterdam" Amsterdam print and "Otiyot Amsterdam" Amsterdam Letters." University of Leeds.

The publication history of Ben Jonson's works involves a series of complicated legal disputes over intellectual property. Percy Simpson has called the 1640 folio editions "a record of muddle evasion and dishonesty." cited in Williams "Chetwin Crooke and the Jonson Folios". The poet and playwright Ben Jonson 1572-1637 achieved a high level of literary success rivalled only by his contemporary William Shakespeare. Although of humble origins Jonson carved out a space for himself as one of England's foremost authors of the Jacobean period renowned for his elaborate court masques and poignant comedic plays. His mother a clergyman's widow remarried a bricklayer. Jonson received a schoolboys education at Westminster School where he studied under the antiquarian William Camden. As a young man Jonson worked for his step-father as a bricklayer. Unsuited to the task of bricklaying it had been reported that Jonson would recite lines of Homer while serving as his step-father's hod-carrier. In the 1690s Jonson joined English expeditionary forces to the Low Countries. Upon his return he worked with limited success as an actor. In the autumn of 1698 the premier of his Every Man in his Humor at the Curtain Theatre acted by Shakespeare's Company and with Shakespeare himself playing a leading role solidified Jonson's reputation as an accomplished playwright. The play introduced a new kind of vernacular comedy. His other early successes included Every Man Out of his Humor Cynthia's Revels and Poetaster. King James's ascension in 1603 marked a new upward phase in Jonson's career. At the Stuart court Jonson staged elaborate masques a genre of courtly entertainment with singing dancing acting music outlandish costumes scenery and automatons. Jonson's 1605 Masque of Blackness gained him royal favor. In this extravagant masque included in the present copy Queen Anne and eleven of her ladies emerged from a scallop shell painted as "Blackamores" and "strangely attired." In collaboration with Inigo Jones Jonson's masques of the Stuart court "achieved its most sophisticated form" ODNB. In addition to his literary achievements Jonson's interest in the publication of his work cultivated a sense of "authorial ownership and identity that is recognizably modern." Therefore he is a major figure in the history of intellectual property rights. Despite the fact that the theatre companies owned his plays Jonson collaborated with publishers to have his collected works printed in 1616. The present 1640 printing of Volume I is a reprint of the 1616 edition. In the years leading up to the 1640-41 printing of Volumes I II and III a series of legal disputes occurred between Jonson the printers the booksellers and the publishers. The enduring legacy of Jonson in the English canon cannot be understated. As Ian Donaldson writes "In theatre.Jonson perfected a kind of comedy more technically perfect in design more contemporary in subject matter than that of his greatest rival i.e. Shakespeare." His work influenced writers such as Abraham Cowley John Milton Lord Rochester and John Dryden. He remains a central figure of English poetry drama and verse.

First title leaf and likely the one beginning volume II carefully washed the text perhaps pressed--but crisp in any case--the bottom half of one page soiled occasional trivial smudges rust spots or other negligible imperfections elsewhere but the text still fine and IN A GORGEOUS BINDING IN PERFECT CONDITION. This first collected edition of Jonson's works—and of any collected dramatic works in English—comes in a very beautiful binding and with distinguished provenance. Excepting only Shakespeare Ben Jonson 1572-1637 was the most important literary figure of his age and in 1616 the year Shakespeare died he became England's first though unofficial Poet Laureate. In that same year he became the first playwright to publish his collected dramatic works when he issued the earlier volume in our set which was also the first printing of English drama in a folio-size book. The second collection here printed in two separate volumes but almost always bound as one appeared after Jonson's death in 1641. For the 21 years that he lived after Shakespeare Jonson was the unquestioned ruler in all things literary; unlike Shakespeare who borrowed heavily he was a fertile source for memorable plots and nobody before or after him has ever displayed the fascinating characters of London so vividly on the stage. As Pforzheimer tells us about the 1616 printing "Jonson began the preparation of this definitive edition in 1612. He used the quarto texts whenever available but scrupulously and systematically revised them cutting out many marginal notes altering the spelling typography and punctuation in accordance with a consistent . . . plan introducing considerable editorial matter." The playwright's hands-on approach to the printing of this text established it as the authoritative edition. As Pforzheimer notes this work appears with a number of bibliographic variants due to the fact that it was printed and issued over a number of years. Our set collates as in Pforzheimer with the exception of the bound order of the second and third parts. In part II which begins the second volume here "The Devil is an Ass" is bound between "Bartholomew Fair" and "The Staple of News" rather than after them. Part III leads off with "The Magnetic Lady" "Tale of a Tub" and "The Sad Shepherd" followed by the "Masques" and the "Diverse Poems." Greg notes that "the volume was printed in three sections the order of which is not altogether certain and differs in different copies." The tasteful binding was executed by the preeminent London workshop of Riviere & Son which supplied discriminating bibliophiles for more than a century. Robert Riviere began as a bookseller and binder in Bath in 1829 then set up shop as a binder in London in 1840; in 1881 he took his grandson Percival Calkin into partnership at which time the firm became known as Riviere & Son and the bindery continued to do business until 1939. Our set is in the superior condition typical of the books from the library of Doris Louise Benz 1907-84 who collected fine bindings the best of the private presses major English authors and manuscripts. Dickinson says that because she had acquired things very privately the book world was shocked at the richness of her collection when it came on the market in 1984. According to the Dartmouth College Library which was the sole beneficiary of the proceeds from the sale "Miss Benz was a quiet collector almost unknown to other collectors and to dealers except to Col. Marston Drake of the firm of James F. Drake of New York and to Maggs and Quaritch in London." She wanted her collection broken up and sold so that "others could enjoy the pleasures of identifying locating and acquiring books for their own collections" just as she had. Will Stansby unknown

Workes of Benjamin Jonson

164069113London: Richard Bishop for Andrew Crooke & for Richard Meighen 1640. Full Description: JONSON Ben. The Workes of Benjamin Jonson. London: Richard Bishop for Andrew Crooke & for Richard Meighen 1640 1631. First edition of both parts one and two of the second volume containing the first appearance of the first three plays; Bartholomew Fayre The Staple of Newes The Divell is an Asse and second edition of the first volume. Part I of the second volume was originally printed in 1631 as a continuation of the 1616 Workes. With Pforzheimer's issue "f" of the second volume in which all parts are without the general title the first three plays are dated 1631 and Divell is an Asse with the 1641 imprint. The final page of Mortimer reads: "Left unfinished". It is also of note that William Shakespeare is listed as an actor in two plays of Volume I Everyman in his humor and Seianus His Fall. Three folio volumes in two 10 7/8 x 7 1/8 inches; 277 x 181 mm. Second volume slightly larger. Volume I with engraved title-page by William Hole and engraved portrait. Both volumes with woodcut initials and head- and tailpieces. First volume lacking A1 a blank and second volume is lacking A1 general title. Uniformly bound in contemporary dark brown acid-treated calf rebacked with original spines laid down. Spines elaborately stamped in gilt in compartments. Red morocco spine labels lettered in gilt. Some mild toning and occasional light spotting throughout both volumes. Volume II with a closed lateral tear to leaves Cc-Cc3 which has been neatly repaired with no loss. Overall a very good copy. Pforzheimer credits the failure of The New Inn as the reason work on the second volume ceased until after Jonson's death. The first leaf in the first signature in this part was left blank in anticipation of a general title but since the plans were cancelled the plays were sold as printed with only their individual titles all dated 1631. A general title-page was created for the 1640 first edition of the Workes and the unsold 1631 printings were included as the first of four parts. "The three plays of Volume Il were all that Jonson saw through the press of a projected continuation of his 1616 volume. His failure to complete the collection was probably due to the damning by the town of The New Inn which was published 1631 the same year as this volume. Because of Jonson's supervision of this part the text here given may be considered authoritative. As first printed Sig A was a blank there being no general-title. In 1640 a number of these 1631 plays still remaining unsold sheet AI and 6 was again passed the press this time of Bernard Alsop and Thomas Fawcett and the general-title. printed on recto A. This title refers only to the three plays printed in 1631 and describes them as 'The fecond Volume'. However bound with these three 1631 plays are normally found the three parts containing the masques plays and miscellany dated 1640 or 1641 which have no general-title nor any other preliminary matter.

Contemporary vellum neatly rebacked. Old library stamp at bottom margin title front blank endleaf detached occasional oxidation spot and mild toning else a very good copy crisp and amply margined. First Hebrew-Latin edition of the first modern Hebrew work on geography the authorâ€™s most famous and important book. Abraham Farissol or Peritsol was a learned Jew from Avignon who compiled his cosmographical works at the court of the Estes in Ferrara. The present text was composed in 1524-25 and first published in Hebrew at Venice in 1586. The Latin translation and notes in the present edition were prepared by the English orientalist and librarian Thomas Hyde 1636-1703 with the assistance of R. Isaac Abendana working from a manuscript which Hyde located in the Bodleian Library. â€œEach of its 30 chapters deals with a certain geographical area or subject. In addition many cosmological and historical matters are also treated. The author collected all the evidence he could regarding Jewish settlements in each country. The inclusion of a description of the New World makes Farissol the first Hebrew writer to deal in detail with the newly-discovered America. The 14th chapter of Iggeret Orhot Olam which deals mainly with the settlements of the Ten Lost Tribes is of special interest. According to Farissolâ€™s introduction to this chapter it is clear that what moved him to undertake this investigation was the appearance in Italy in 1523 of David Reuveni many of whose descriptions are included in this workâ€ EJ 6.1185. Reuveni was "an adventurer who aroused messianic hopes in the early 16th century" EJ 14.114. The appended work is a tract on Islamic customs by Albert Wojciech Bobowski a Polish Christian who converted to Islam after his capture by the Ottoman Turks. Adopting the name Ali Ufki Bey he served as translator court musician at Topkapi and as a notator of Ottoman classical music. Bell F26. Christian Hebraism Cat. Harvard 1988 no. 39. ESTC R27480.
