Only later after much scholarly research was the identity of the author discovered. Judith Cohen was known for her social influence and generosity throughout the Jewish community. She married Moses Montefiore in 1812 and together they became two of the most well-known members of the British-Jewish elite.<br /><br />The pious Montefiores observed the Mosaic dietary laws and kept a strictly kosher kitchen. This required that their meat be ritually slaughtered and that they observe the biblical injunctions in Exodus XXIII: 19 and Deuteronomy XIV: 21 'You shall not seethe a kid in its mother's milk' which was interpreted as to never mix dairy with meat in cooking. Eating dairy and meat in the same meal was also prohibited as was serving pork shellfish hares rabbits and swans as well as the consumption of the blood of any animal. Due to their strict observance Judith set about creating substitutions for these ingredients as favoured by their gentile guests. Supplies of kosher smoked beef and 'chorisa' sic: Spanish style beef chorizo as a spicy substitute for ham and bacon; of olive oil to replace dripping or lard for cooking meatless meals; of almond-cream as a substitute for dairy cream in puddings and sweet dessert dishes are all substitutions that Lady Montefiore proposes.<br /><br />Whilst the Montefiores participated in upper-class Christian society in London they also spent much of their time and earnings on Jewish causes. They helped to fund the first settlement for farming in the Holy Land and travelled to Israel several times where they were always well received. Lady Montefiore herself was acknowledged even by the most observant of rabbis and was honoured by taking part in their Shabbat services. She was also a member of the board of the Jews' Orphan Society and the Ladies' Loan and Visiting Society becoming 'Lady Montefiore' when her husband was knighted by Queen Victoria in 1837. When she died in 1862 Sir Moses opened the Judith Lady Montefiore College at Ramsgate England. She is remembered as a generous philanthropist and inspiring leader among the Jewish community and especially within the State of Israel.<br /><br />The Manual of Jewish Cookery was one of the first British cookbooks devoted to the Hebrew kitchen; the recipes are simple clear and economical for the time. After the section on cooking the author has added several chapters on the feminine toilette.<br /> London, T. & W. Boone, 1846. hardcover
184642820875<p>FIRST EDITION. <strong>The first Jewish cookery book in English this book is a landmark in Jewish social history.</strong></p><p>Judith Cohen the anonymous author married Moses Montefiore in 1812. Her sister was married to Nathan Mayer Rothschild Moses Montefiore's business partner. Montefiore retired from business in 1824 at the age of 40 and he and Judith devoted the rest of their lives to humanitarian efforts on behalf of distressed Jews around the world. Together they became perhaps the most prominent members of the Jewish community in both England and throughout the world.</p><p>Judith Montefiore played a key role in the emergence of the modern women's movement through the example she set in the Jewish community in England. She actively promoted social integration of the leading members of the Jewish community into the larger secular society by presiding over sophisticated parties. Inspired by her Christian counterparts Lady Montefiore began to attend synagogue services even though women's attendance at prayers was strongly discouraged. While the male members of her family encouraged her to remain at home in the traditional role of Jewish women she insisted: "Surely at a place of devotion the mind ought to testify due respect and gratitude towards the Almighty." In light of her social prominence her visibility at synagogue services encouraged other Jewish women to attend. Lady Montefiore was also active in philanthropic causes and in fostering her husband's support of the nascent Jewish community in Palestine.</p><p><strong><em>The Jewish Manual</em></strong><strong> was not only the first English Jewish cookbook it was also the first published book of social guidelines for the Anglo-Jewish woman.</strong> It instructed Jewish housewives on how to preside over a household conforming to the standards of the English middle and upper classes at a time when the Jewish population was attaining new status and wealth. Lady Montefiore stressed modesty and tasteful restraint. As she wrote in the introduction: "The <em>Cuisine</em> of a woman of refinement like her dress or furniture is distinguished not for its costliness or profusion but for a pervading air of graceful originality."</p><p>"Among the numerous works on Culinary Science already in circulation there have been none which afford the slightest insight to the Cookery of the Hebrew kitchen. Replete as many of these are with information on various important points they are completely valueless to the Jewish housekeeper not only on account of prohibited articles and combinations being assumed to be necessary ingredients of nearly every dish but from the entire absence of all the receipts peculiar to the Jewish people" Preface.</p><p><strong>This is a landmark book in Jewish social history.</strong></p><p>Finely bound in half blue morocco spine gilt. Original cloth bound in at the end. Light foxing. Near fine.</p> Boone hardcover

20129786East Burke VT: Plowboy Press 2012. Wrappers. Fine binding. Square octavo. 74 pp. Limited edition one of 100 numbered copies. Letterpress printed in light blue and black on cream colored Hahnemuhle Gutenberg with seven section titles on variously colored Hahnemuhle Bugra with matching ink. Sewn in the Japanese retchoso style bound in Barcham Green Hayle handmade paper with an acrylic wash and housed in a folder covered in stained Tyvek with title letterpress printed in black on spine and cover in Japanese and English respectively. A fine copy. <br /> <br /> Born and educated in Tokyo Oishi settled and raised her family in Vermont. She writes in the Author's Note that her haiku and tanka began "as daily message to my parents trying to give them a picture of my life in Vermont. Gradually I began using that daily practice as a way to make sense of living in two worlds." These poems printed in Japanese with Chalmer's graceful English translation are beautiful evocative and as Chalmer writes in the Translator's Notes "open a path to memory and fresh discovery of the here and now." Andrew Miller-Brown presents them in this elegant volume a poem per page with English translation set in Legacy Sans on the inner half of the page and the Japanese set in Kozuka Mincho Pro in the outer half. Everything about this work is thoughtful and understated from the sewing method that leaves the spine exposed but sewing invisible to the simple acrylic wash depicting a snow field on the cover; all the elements come together creating a powerful book.
