Send material as plain text: no HTML, other coding, or attachments;and write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line. 3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. ______________________________________________________________________ From: [email protected] Subject: Shloyme Rosenberg- missing historical novels Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2011 17:39:21 +0000 I am trying to trace historical novels written by Shloyme Rosenberg (1896-1975). Amongst the novels that I found: R' Akiva [Romanech, NY, 1947]; R' Meir un Beruriah [Shaulson, NY, 1950]; Di Kuzrim [Yid-bukh (43), Buenos Aires, 1960]; Shabsai Tsvi [Menorah, Israel, 1965]. Both R' Akiva and R' Meir un Beruriah were later published in Hebrew. What is strange is that at the end of Di Kuzrim, published in 1960, are listed 2 other historical novels under- es verren gegreit tsum druckt; Bar Kochba & Der Koenig Shlomo while at the end of Shabsai Tsvi, published 5 years later in Israel, again are listed these 2 other books as ";being readied for printing"; (and Bar Kochba is the third of ";the trilogy";- I assume the other 2 parts being the previously published R' Akiva and R' Meir un Beruriah) as well as another historical novel, also ";about to appear in print";: Der Yiddisher Prinz (on Reubeni). HOWEVER, these 3 books: Bar Kochba, Der Koenig Shlomo and Der Yiddisher Prinz do not seem to be anywhere- Can they be traced? I would appreciate any help/ information.
