Masorah and Text Criticism in the Early Modern Mediterranean


Moshe Ibn Zabara and Menahem de Lonzano


By Jordan S. Penkower
http://www.magnes-press.com/Authors/Jordan+S.+Penkower.aspx?name=Jordan
+S.+Penkower 



MS Zurich, Jeselsohn 5, is the first half of a Sefardi Masoretic Bible
completed by Moshe Ibn Zabara in 1477, which was later heavily glossed,
especially in the Pentateuch, by Menahem de Lonzano. The other half of
the manuscript is preserved in MS Sassoon 1209. This study first
examines Zabara's work in the manuscript, in comparison with his other
manuscripts. The main part of this study is devoted to Menahem de
Lonzano: his biography and bibliography, his wide-ranging text critical
work, and his detailed work on the Zabara Bible. The volume is
illustrated with approximately 150 color photos, with a concentration of
32 photographs in appendix 1 of folios in MS Jeselsohn 5 with
micrography. Two other appendices by specialists are devoted to the
decoration program and to the palaeography and codicology of MS
Jeselsohn 5.

[ha-Safran] Collection Analysis Tool for LC Classification

2014-11-19 Thread Robin Gluck
Hello,

Does anyone know of a free online collection analysis tool for LC 
classification collections?  Something that is similar to Titlewave for Dewey.

Thanks for your help,

[ha-Safran] Graphic novels for children

2014-11-19 Thread WJC Librarian
Hello:
I have a student in Hebrew School around nine years old  (third grade) who 
loved the Barry Deutsch graphic novels of Hereville. He asked if there are more 
or other graphic novels that he can read. I cannot find others with Jewish 
content other than the Rabbi Harvey books. Does anyone have any other 
suggestions?

Thanks for your help.

Re: [ha-Safran] Young Adult Shoah memoirs

2014-11-19 Thread Nathan Moskowitz
Hello,
My parent's memoirs just came out: Kuzmino Chronicles:Memoirs of teenage 
Holocaust Survival.
I believe the book is very educational for the general public and would make 
excellent reading material for young adults in particular. Below is the link 
for those who are interested.

Kuzmino Chronicles Memoirs of Teenage Holocaust SurvivalAuthored by Nathan C. 
Moskowitz MD PhD 

Leib and Gittel Moskowitz were both born and raised in Kuzmino, a small town in 
Transcarpathia, in what was then Czechoslovakia. As children they hardly knew 
each other. In May 1944 when they were both fifteen years old, they and their 
families were herded off to Auschwitz in cattle cars. From there, their paths 
temporarily diverged. Each was transported to a separate series of 
concentration and labor camps. Both miraculously survived their ordeals and 
after liberation spent many years waiting to come to the USA. Leib spent this 
time in a Displaced Persons camp in Germany while Gittel spent these same years 
in the United Kingdom. Their separate life trajectories re-converged when they 
both settled in New York where they became reacquainted, married and raised a 
family.
This book chronicles Leib's and Gittel's turbulent Holocaust saga in their own 
words. Historical documentation is juxtaposed alongside their memoirs, as well 
as corroboratory documents obtained from the International Tracing Services 
(ITS) collection held by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (USHMM), 
Yad Vashem, and numerous other sources. Photographs are also included to 
further corroborate their very clear and precise recollections.
This book hopes to honor the many family members and countless of individual 
souls recollected by Leib and Gittel. Their memoirs not only testify to the 
ordeals suffered by these victims, but also shed light on the fate suffered by 
millions of martyred Jews, and of those fortunate enough to have survived.
