Miss Jennie Mannheimer will recite some of H.N Bialiks poems. HERR NAHUM SOKOLOV will deliver an address on The Development and Future of Hebrew Literature.....Rev. Dr. Louis Grossman will preside. Deutsch, Neumark, and Grossman were leaders of the Reform movement at the time; Bloch went on to edid the Journal of Jewish Bibliography and to head the Jewish devision at NYPL. Jennie Mannheimer (1872-1943), aka Jane Manner, was an American elocutionist, acting coach, and teacher of speech and drama. Her father, Sigmund Mannheimer, was a professor and librarian at Hebrew Union College .Jennie Mannheimer was one of the first two women to earn a bachelor's degree in Hebrew Letters from Hebrew Union College, in 1888 .[She] was director of the drama department at the Cincinnati College of Music from 1900 until 1907. She also ran her own school, the Cincinnati School of Expression (1894-1912). In New York, She was founder of the Drama Recital Club, and a member of the New York Drama League, the New York League of American Pen Women, the Council of Jewish Women, and the Temple Emmanu-El Women's Auxiliary (Wikipedia).

Here the host a gathering to meet leading modern Hebrew writer Nahum Sokolov. Joan Friedman notes in a 2006 article on Solomon Freedhof at HUC during the period that, The hot issue of the day during Freehofs student and early faculty years at the College was Zionism. It was discussed in the Literary Society and everywhere else on campus. During the 19111912 academic year, Silver and Professor Neumark had founded a Hebrew-speaking club, Ibriah, of which Marcus was a member, though he does not mention whether Freehof was also. The CCAR had taken a firm stance against Zionism as early as 1897, although individual rabbis were outspoken Zionists.104 Kohler was a committed anti-Zionist. Nevertheless, despite his best efforts, between 1910 and 1920 the student body gradually shifted to an overwhelmingly pro-Zionist perspective as its demographics changed, world events furthered the Zionist cause, and Louis Brandeis popularized a nonideological Zionism acceptable to American Jews, including many Reform Jews (AJAJ, LVIII, Nr ½, p. 21). Toning, light crease, Very Good Condition. Presume quite rare. (ZION-10-12B)

8vo., First Edition, with a full-page plan; strongly bound in contemporary red buckram, backstrip lettered in gilt, uncut, ORIGINAL WRAPPERS PRESERVED, a near fine copy. A PRESENTATION COPY FROM SIR JOHN (LATER VISCOUNT) SIMON TO MAJOR A W H JAMES WITH THE FORMER'S SIGNED HOLOGRAPH INSCRIPTION ON FRONT WRAPPER. A FINE AND RELEVANT A.L.s FROM SIMON TO JAMES IS MOUNTED ON REAR ENDPAPER. The letter is written from HQ, Royal Flying Corps, where Simon served briefly on Lord Trenchard's staff during WWI. Major James has noted the context in a neat hand on inner wrapper: 'Immediately after the trial John Simon came out to HQ, RFC, France, and was attached under instruction to my squadron, No. 6, at Abeele. I had known Simon when I was at Cambridge, and he and Ernest Burge had a hunting box at Huntingdon. John Simon, whom I got to know very well later, in the same mess at HQ. RFC, and later in the H. of C [House of Commons] was intrigued to meet someone who knew his client, Malcolm, well. John Allsebrook Simon, KC, 1st Viscount Simon (1873-1954) is one of only three British politicians to have served as Home Secretary, Foreign Secretary [under Churchill] and Chancellor of the Exchequer. In the sensational trial of Lieutenant [Douglas] Malcolm of the Royal Artillery for the murder of Anton Baumberg [Count de Borch], Simon led the Defence. After the summing-up by the Judge [Justice McCardie] the Jury retired and after twenty-five minutes' absence returned a verdict of 'Not Guilty'. RARE, AND IN THIS CASE CONTEXTUALLY UNIQUE.

Acquaforte misure: mm 291 x 212 Teologo, umanista e poeta francese. Studiò inizialmente legge e poi divenne pastore a Ginevra. Scrisse numerosi libri di storie e teologia alcuni di questi accompagnati da incisioni. In questa stampa viene raffigurato, in maniera satirica, il sinodo svoltosi nella città di Dordrecht in Olanda per risolvere le questioni sorte tra calvinisti e arminiani. All'interno di una grande ed ampia sala, troviamo disposti, seduti su file di bachi a più livelli, personaggi con in capo delle corna di diavolo o di toro simbolo di superbia. Alle loro spalle sul muro la scritta Congregatio Taurorum in vaccis populorum (Salmo 68:31) cioè congresso di tori feroci e vitelli del popolo. Solo il gruppo in fondo sulla sinistra non ha corna, sono i rappresentanti degli Stati Generali. Al centro seduti intono ad un tavolo su cui si vedono fogli e libri i coordinatori del Sinodo, a capo tavola il loro presidente Bogerman. Sulla parete di fondo della sala un grande camino al cui interno due diavoletti agitano i soffietti come per alimentare la discordia. Sopra il camino un'enorme civetta simbolo di ignoranza e due scimmie simbolo di impudenza dominano la scena. Sul pavimento è incisa una lunga scritta, si tratta di un attacco feroce alle vicende avvenute durante il sinodo tra i rappresentanti della chiesa. Visti di spalle due uomini stanno entrando nella sala, al loro fianco sono incisi i loro nomi e la carica di legati: Mr Brunier e Mr Dumolin. Oltre l'immagine inciso "Simon Goulartius Invent. et. Excud". Un esemplare di questo foglio è conservato al Rijksmuseum. (FMH 1345) Bella impressione. Ottimo stato di conservazione, eccetto una doppia piega nella carta al centro che non compromette la lettura del foglio. Esemplare rifiato alla battuta del rame.
