355 p. + Frontis and full page plates. Publisher's device on title page. 8vo. Original full green cloth binding, gold lettered spine. Hardbound. First Edition. "The Haskalah, or Jewish Enlightenment, was an intellectual movement in Europe that lasted from approximately the 1770s to the 1880s. The Haskalah was inspired by the European Enlightenment but had a Jewish character. It encouraged Jews to study secular subjects, to learn both the European and Hebrew languages, and to enter fields such as agriculture, crafts, the arts and science. The maskilim (followers of the Haskalah) tried to assimilate into European society in dress, language, manners and loyalty to the ruling power. The Haskalah eventually influenced the creation of both the Reform and Zionist movements" - Shira Schoenberg. Some of its leaders in Russia were: Tobias Cohn; Isaac bar Levinsohn; Max Lilienthal; Alexander Zederbaum; Perez ben Mosheh Smolenskin; Moses Lob Lilienblum; and others. Very good copy. JUDAICA BOX 2

Jacob George Strutt (17841867) painter and etcher, studied in London, and was a contributor to the Royal Academy and British Institution at intervals between 1819 and 1858. For a few years he practiced portrait-painting, but from 1824 to 1831 exhibited studies of forest scenery, and he is now best known by two sets of etchings which he published at this period `Sylva Britannica, or portraits of Forest Trees distinguished for their Antiquity' (1822; reissued, as here, in 1838), and `Delicia Sylvarum, or grand and romantic Forest Scenery in England and Scotland' (1828). About 1831 Strutt went abroad, and, after residing for a time at Lausanne, settled in Rome. In 1851 he returned to England, but was not active after 1858.

Gutes Ex. - Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Reiseberichte deutscher Schriftsteller führen um 1800 durch Italien als Museum der Bildung. Sie beschreiben Italien als Gesamtkunstwerk und entwickeln aus einzelnen Sehenswürdigkeiten eine Ausstellung klassischer Bildung. Jeder Reisebericht ordnet Bildungsgut nach eigenen Regeln, und jeder reiht sein Konzept in die literarhistorische Tradition deutscher Italienbildung. Zudem präsentiert nicht nur der Autor seine Reise als individuelle und gleichzeitig kulturhistorisch abgesicherte Identität, auch der Leser erwartet von der Lektüre ein solches Bildungserlebnis. Bildung soll einerseits authentisch, andererseits wiederholbar und stets abrufbar sein. Die Konzentration auf die Zeit zwischen 1770 und 1830 beabsichtigt, die Entwicklung, Variation und Abarbeitung eines Konzepts von Klassizität aufzuzeigen, das den Werk- und Projektcharakter deutscher Italienrezeption ebenso prägt wie die Erzählung von Geschichte und Nation.
