194553733New York: Harper & Brothers 1945. Very good. First US edition of a pivotal book in Rojankovsky's career and a high point of early 20th-century picture book publishing. Inspired in part by Rojankovsky's childhood love of James Fenimoore Cooper books DANIEL BOONE was meant to be a lavish vision of the American West - but for that reason American publishers initially considered it too expensive to print: it was first brought out by Domino Press in Paris. The book's success is credited in part with revitalizing the French children's book market and played a role in Rojankovsky landing work in the famous Père Castor series. This American edition was produced in a smaller format leading to different changes in page layout and design. 11'' x 8.25''. Original red cloth-backed color pictorial paper boards. Illustrated by Rojankovsky with beautiful color lithographs throughout. 60 pages. Boards with rubbing and soil wear to corners. Interior clean. Harper & Brothers unknown

199724699Paris: Publisud 1997. First edition. Softcover. g. Octavo. 605 6pp. Original pictorial wrappers. For "transmission" Esther Benbassa coordinator of this collective work means routes contents methods materials delivery systems to ensure the continuity of identity knowledge practices Jewish memory. As the "passages" are all types of bridges built between the Jewish world and outside but also between the different poles and components of the Jewish world men and women educated and lower classes Ashkenazim and Sephardim East and West and that ensure the movement of people the fermentation of ideas: translation language contact crypto-Judaism universalizing ideologies Enlightenment Romanticism populism nationalism entering the Jewish world but also influences the fertilizing Jewish non-Jewish societies. They are also and finally men and women in the margins: prostitutes homosexuals proselytes. If the transmission is a matter of body and sex it is also a matter of text interpretation translation reading and rereading of texts writing and rewriting of history a matter of words speeches of verb and orality when the text disappears business traffic transfer dialectic between continuity and discontinuity business policy representations memorials business education business in brief geography and weather. This collection of articles says Benbassa is "like the memory that feeds the ambition and brings together various practitioners and theorists of studies on the Jews of the younger generation. " This means that the list of participants is long and cosmopolitan as the community of specialists in the field has expanded in recent years. To avoid favoring one or insulting to others I will simply say that each full or nearly captured the attention and deserves comment.
