It includes an essay on the urim and thummim the Hebrew terms first appearing in the biblical book of Exodus that had been and are interpreted to refer to elements of the breastplate of the High Priest. Hardouin argues that the words refer to nothing material and solid and mean ‘lights’ and ‘perfections’. The text of the Latin Vulgate is printed at the side-margins alongside Hardouin’s French-language versions of the biblical texts with notes in French below. The chapters of Ecclesiastes also have French-language introductions. The French Jesuit Hardouin 1646-1729 who was the son of a bookseller is a very interesting scholar because he developed an extreme view on literary forgery. He held for example that most of the Greco-Roman classics had been written in the thirteenth century. References: Conlon 29: 531; 530. De Backer & Sommervogel 4:104 nos. 85; 86.

6651Manuscript on paper bound. 19th century. Good. Octavo 18 cm; 1 78 leaves paginated in manuscript. Latin and French text on facing pages. Bound in waste vellum manuscript in French no longer easily legible. Pages thumbed and toned at edges. Interlinear corrections in text as well as tipped in overleavers with corrected text. <br /><br />All we know of this manuscript book derives from examination of the physical evidence. The text does not correspond to any known French verse translation of the Book of Job so it seems to be a private endeavor. The unprofessional cursive orthography accords stylistically with handwriting typical of the 19th century but the structure and materials of the binding could indicate an earlier origin. The Latin text of the Vulgate appears on the pages facing the translation. Manuscript on paper, bound. hardcover

173749261Leiden: Jean Luzac 1737. First edition. Two volumes large quarto. 52 544; 2 545-1232 63 indices 1 corrigendapp. Text in two columns with Hebrew text and facing Latin translation interspersed with commentary. Titles in red and black with engraved vignettes. Contemporary speckled calf; gilt-tooled spine with raised bands and morocco lettering pieces; gilt dentelles; edges daubed in red and green. Light scuffing to boards and fading to spines. A very good set with crisp clean text throughout.<br /> <br /> First edition of this comprehensive commentary to the biblical Book of Job by the Dutch scholar of Semitic languages Albert Schultens 1686-1750 who maintained "that the true nature of the Hebrew language and the meaning of many of its words and idioms are to be found chiefly in the Arabic" Orme. Fifty-five pages of the indices constitute a brief lexicon and provide Latin as well as Arabic equivalents for more than 1000 Hebrew words. Schultens studied theology and eastern languages at Groningen where he received his degree in theology in 1709. After a brief career as a preacher in Wassenaar he was nominated professor of Hebrew and Jewish antiquities at Franeker in 1713. In 1729 he decamped for Leiden were he was first appointed reader in eastern languages and finally full professor in 1732.<br /> <br /> At this time a chief concern of Calvinist theologians was to liberate Old Testament exegesis from the Jewish Rabbinic as well as Catholic traditions. Schultens' influential and controversial solution was revealed as early as 1706 in his first public thesis Disputatio theologico philologica de utilitate linguae Arabicae in interpretanda S. Scriptura A Theologico-Philosophical Dissertation on the Utility of the Arabic Language for the Interpretation of the Holy Scriptures "a forceful attack" Brugman & Schröder on the Protestant sola scriptura methodology of Biblical exegesis. "With the help of Jacobus Golius' Arabic dictionary he perused with zeal and fervour the Old Testament and wrote prolifically. The lexical superiority of Arabic had led him to a reconsideration of the position of Hebrew: at first he had called Arabic 'the most splendid daughter of mother Hebrew' but in his oration of 1729 he proclaimed Hebrew and Arabic cognate twin sisters. This shocked conservative theologians as an outright profanation of God's Word" Brugman & Schröder. "In 1737 he applied his theories in his bilingual edition of the book of the prophet Job whom he regarded as an Arab. The Hebrew text and the Latin translation are all but totally submerged by the extensive commentary in which Schultens draws abundantly on Arabic texts such as the Hamasa an anthology of early Arabic poetry by the ninth-century poet Abu Tammam" Vrolijk & van Leeuwen. Schultens was not without his critics and by 1824 William Orme notes a turning of the tide: "Different opinions are entertained of the correctness of his views and also of his success in applying them; but it is now generally admitted that he carries his notions of the advantage of Arabic learning to the interpretation of the Scriptures too far." <br /> <br /> Jean Luzac 1728-1777 was a member of a well-known Huguenot family of printers; he published many works for the University of Leiden including three Hebrew books of Albert Schultens. Isaac van der Mijn is noted as the printer at the colophon of the second volume.<br /> <br /> Provenance: printed label of the Bibliotheca Seminarii Warmondani at the front endleaf of the first volume.

1940208331940. Two pamphlets issued by the Congress of Industrial Organizations and the NAACP between 1946 and 1949 documenting organized opposition to racial discrimination anti-Black violence and segregation during the early postwar years of the Jim Crow era. The material documents interconnected systems of labor organizing and civil rights advocacy through reports on employment discrimination housing inequality lynching police violence and white supremacist terror revealing how labor unions and civil rights organizations framed racial equality as central to postwar American democracy. Produced during a period of intensifying national debate over civil rights following World War II the pamphlets provide primary-source evidence for the study of Black freedom struggles interracial labor activism and institutional responses to segregation and racial violence in the United States.<br /> Collection consists of two staple-bound pamphlets in printed wrappers ranging from 4 to 16 pages and measuring between 5 x 7.5 inches and 6 x 9 inches. 1 Report of the National CIO Committee to Abolish Discrimination. November 1946. The report details CIO initiatives addressing discrimination in education employment and housing while devoting substantial attention to African American civil rights. Specific incidents discussed include lynchings and the destruction of a Black community in Columbia Tennessee by police forces. The report concludes with a statement linking racial equality to the outcome of World War II: "It is the problem of one hundred and thirty million people who have fought and produced together and who must learn to live in peace and respect for each other." The publication demonstrates how segments of organized labor attempted to integrate civil rights advocacy into broader postwar political organizing. 2 A Chance to Live. 1949. NAACP pamphlet addressing racial discrimination and anti-Black violence through brief case studies involving harassment exclusion and murder committed by Ku Klux Klan members and white civilians. The cover design incorporates approximately 400 names representing victims of racial bias and violence visually emphasizing the scale of systemic discrimination. The final page summarizes NAACP activities and includes membership and donation information illustrating the organization's efforts to expand public support for civil rights campaigns.<br /> Issued during the formative years of the modern civil rights movement these pamphlets reflect growing national pressure to confront racial segregation and violence in the aftermath of military service by African Americans during World War II. The CIO's openness to Black membership distinguished it from many earlier labor federations and contributed to alliances between labor organizers and civil rights advocates during the 1940s. Together the pamphlets document how unions and advocacy organizations publicized racial injustice as both a civil rights issue and a national democratic crisis. Mild foxing to one pamphlet with minor edge wear overall. Pages and text remain crisp and clear. Compact but substantial grouping of postwar civil rights and labor advocacy material addressing the realities of racial discrimination under Jim Crow. unknown
