RARE jubilee volume of 'Das Jüdisch-Theologische Seminar (Fränckelscher Stiftung)' - the first modern rabbinical seminary in Central Europe founded in 1854, in its time the most important institution for the training of rabbis in Europe, which served as the model for similar colleges set up later in Europe and the United States. The author Markus Brann (1849-1920) was a renowned German-Jewish rabbi who occupied the chair of history (later he also assumed the duties of librarian) and taught exegesis and Talmudic codes at the seminary. This extremely rare history of this unique institute of Jewish studies bears special historical significance due to the wealth of sources available to its author. Contains frontispiece of the seminary's founder Jonas Fränckel and photos of several other important personalities in the history of the seminary. 240x165mm. 209+LIV pages.

pp. 38 (2)[Publisher's advertisement]. 8vo. Lightly age stained. Disbound. Founded in 1687, this Charity School was situated in one of the poorest parts of London. Andrew Kippis (1725-1795) was a nonconformist divine and writer; and his association with many charitable institutions in London and Westminster enabled him to effectively promote the nonconformist cause. "His editorial connection with the `Biographia Britannica' constitutes his chief claim to remembrance. He was employed by the booksellers to prepare the second edition of that work, `with corrections, enlargements, and the addition of new lives.' When he had been engaged for some time on this task he found it too vast for him to execute alone, and Dr. Towers was appointed as his associate. Johnson told Boswell in 1777 that he had been asked to undertake the new edition of the `Biographia Britannica,' but had declined it, `which,' says Boswell, `he afterwards said to me he regretted.' Although Boswell admitted that Kippis had discharged the task judiciously, and with more impartiality than might have been expected from a separatist, he complained that the work was `too crowded with obscure dissenting teachers.'" - DNB. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!
