Pilchik, Ely E., libretto by. The Water-Drawing Festival: Simchat Beyt Hashoeyvah. An Oratorio For Cantor-Solo Voices-Choir and Piano. Chicago, Illinois, A Friends of Jewish Music Publication, 1970. Royal octavo, foxed stapled paper covers, 88 pp. Softbound. Very Good-. Music by Max Janowski. Inscribed by the librettist on the front cover. (48694) Simchat Beyt Ha-sho'evah was a festival occurring at the end of Sukkot in late Second Temple times. There has been some gestures towards revival lately. The Oratorio and Cantata were very popular forms particularly in the Reform Movement in the during the first two thirds of the last century. Both are pretty dead at the moment but it is hard to develop a full picture of what Reform judaism was like in America without any familiarity with these forms. Pilchik was a well known Reform rabbi and author of Torah commentary and creative writing. Janowski was a prolific composer of liturgical music for the Reform movement as well as a prominent Jewish Chicagoan.     $35.00

Re'uven Yuklson: zibetsikster geboyrntog. Yuvilei-Zshurnal, Yuni, 1955./ Rubin Youkelson on his 70th Birthday, June 25, 1955. New York, Jewish Music Alliance, 1955. Octavo, stapled paper covers, 32 pp., b/w photos. Softbound. Very Good. In Yiddish and English. Joseph Rumshinsky and Isaac Leib Peretz were both involved in the founding of secular Yiddish Folk Choirs in 1899. The tradition of liturgical choirs extends back to the period of the the First Temple but secular Jewish choirs were a new innovation. By the 1930s there were nearly two hundred Yiddish folk choirs in the US alone. The Jewish Musical Alliance was an co-ordinating agency that distributed musical arrangements for choirs. Jacob Shaefer is one of the best known figures of that organization. Youkelson was more involved in the organizational aspect of the Alliance. (66588)     $30.00

A nod to Black History Month

The shortest month of the year, but it is a whole month. Black studies and Africa used to be a larger part of my business. My first print catalog was of Africa and included over seven hundred items. Outside of my business interests both areas continue to be of daily interest to me. Below are a few interesting items from my current holdings. As would be expected they have a link to Jewish interests. Feel free to email me if you are interested in receiving a complete list of my holdings.

Inscribed by Thurman to Rabbi Saul White and his wife Ruth White. (70236)  Fisk and Thurman were important and popular Christian ministers in San Francisco. Together they created the first inter-racial ministry. They were very active in Ecumenical relations. A history of their church can be found at: http://www.fellowshipsf.org/history.html. Rabbi Saul White was the Rabbi of Congregation Beth Sholom in San Francisco for almost fifty years. He was a constant frustration to the local Jewish establishment, never willing to forgive their anti-Zionism and their lack of concern for the Jews of Nazi Europe. He was well-enough regarded by Thurman that we was invited on a number of occasions to preach at the Fellowship.    $35.00

Japtok, Martin. Growing Up Ethnic: Nationalism and the Bildungsroman in African American and Jewish American Fiction. Iowa City, the University of Iowa Press, 2005. ISBN: 0-87745-923-1. Octavo in dust jacket, xii, 201 pp., notes, works cited, index. Hardbound. Very Good.  

           "Growing Up Ethnic examines the presence of literary similarities between African American and Jewish American coming-of-age stories in the first half of the twentieth century; often these similarities exceed what could be explained by socio-historical correspondences alone. Martin Japtok argues that these similarities result from the way both African American and Jewish American authors have conceptualized their “ethnic situation.”

         The issue of “race” and its social repercussions certainly defy any easy comparisons. However, the fact that the ethnic situations are far from identical in the case of these two groups only highlights the striking thematic correspondences in how a number of African American and Jewish American coming-of-age stories construct ethnicity. Japtok studies three pairs of novels-James Weldon Johnson's Autobiography of an Ex-Coloured Man and Samuel Ornitz's Haunch, Paunch and Jowl, Jessie Fauset's Plum Bun and Edna Ferber's Fanny Herself, and Paule Marshall's Brown Girl, Brownstones and Anzia Yezierska's Bread Giver—and argues that the similarities can be explained with reference to mainly two factors, ultimately intertwined: cultural nationalism and the Bildungsroman genre." text from the dust jacket.
