Johlson's Instruction in the Mosaic Religion. He had it published there in 1830 appropriately dedicated to his uncle Zalman Rehine. The book is a catechism published in Germany and translated and adapted by Leeser for "the instruction of the younger . of Israelites of both sexes who have previously acquired some knowledge of the fundamental part . of their religion." Leeser undertook its publication because there was a great scarcity of elementary textbooks for Jewish children. It is significant that this Instruction in the Mosaic Religion Leeser's first issued work is a textbook of religious instruction for the young for though Leeser attained distinction as an author translator editor and a national leader of the American Jewish community he considered himself first and foremost an educator." The Jewish Virtual Library "Leeser's career as a translator also began in Philadelphia in 1830 with the publication of his rendering from German of J. Johlson's Instruction in the Mosaic Religion. Leeser as part of his ongoing efforts to contribute to the development of Jewish education and culture in America translated a number of important works into English from German Spanish French and Hebrew.

5251ISAAC B. SINGER 1903-1991. Singer was a Noble Prize-winning Polish-American writer and proponent of the Yiddish Literary Movement. TLS. 1pg. June 9 1970. New York. A typed letter signed “Isaac B. Singerâ€. On his personal letterhead the Nobel Prize-winning writer evaluates works sent to him by aspiring poet Celia Lustgarden. “Dear Friend Celia Lustgarden I just came back from France and this is the first chance I had to look at your poems. They are written in a very intimate tone. I like best the poem where you follow the wrong man being mistaken about the back of his head. I cannot tell you what to do with them because there are so many poets and so few magazines which publish poetry. As in many other cases the supply is greater than the demand. I hope you have a good summer. With my very best regards Isaac B. Singerâ€. It’s unclear what happened to Lustgarden and her poetry after receiving Singer’s rather unhelpful letter but Google does return search results for a published poet named Celia S. Lustgarten currently living in New York. It’s unclear if this is the same person. The letter is in fine condition. unknown books
