PAPERBACK, fresh attractive copy, appears unused. MELVILLE, HERMAN. Typee: a peep at Polynesian life. Edited by Harrison Hayford, Hershel Parker, G. Thomas Tanselle. Evanston, Ill.: Northwestern University Press, 2003, Northwestern University Press edition, xii, 271pp., . Almost from the time of its publication in 1846, Melville's first book, based on his own travels in the South Seas, has been recognized as a classic in the literature of travel and adventure. Although initially rejected as too fantastic to be true, Typee was immensely popular and regarded in Melville's lifetime as his best work. It established his reputation as the literary discoverer of the South Seas and inspired the likes of Jack London and Robert Louis Stevenson. Two common sailors jump ship and are held in benign captivity by Polynesian natives. Through the narrator's eyes we see a literate (if romanticized) portrait of the people and their culture presented in vivid, even scientific, detail. Melville's racy style and irreverence toward Christian missionaries caused a scandal, and critics denounced the narrator's suggestion that the native life might be superior to that of modern civilization. An adventure story above all, albeit one with a philosophical bent, Typee is a combination of elements that even early in Melville's career hinted at the towering ambition he would fulfill with Moby-Dick. 9780810120525 ISBN 0810120526.

Translated by Jeanne Nemcová and by George Theiner. Evanston, Ill.: Northwestern University Press, 1995, 3d printing, 516pp., . Jewish lives. - "This volume is a landmark of Holocaust Literature and among the finest works of fiction produced by any writer since World War II. The center of Arnost Lustig's impressive oeuvre, the collection expresses his faith in the power of individuals - especially children - to shape their own destinies. These profoundly moving stories transcend the gruesome realities of the camps; their strength is that of the human spirit, the individual's ability to achieve moral triumph through action. Lustig's fiction shines among this century's outstanding literary achievements." "This volume contains sixteen short stories previously published under the titles Diamond of the Night and Night and Hope and the novel Darkness Casts No Shadow. Conceived and written as a whole, they are published here together for the first time.". 9780810112797 ISBN 0810112795.

PAPERBACK, cover price $17.95, fresh attractive copy, very good. NISTER, DER. Regrowth: seven tales of Jewish life before, during, and after Nazi occupation. Translated from the Yiddish by Erik Butler. Evanston, Ill.: Northwestern University Press, 2011, 1st printing number line ending in 1, viii, 300pp., . Northwestern world classics. - "A neglected masterpiece of Holocaust literature, Regrowth offers an account of Jewish life that is unsparing and unsentimental, yet full of Humanity. Der Nister-- his name a pseudonym meaning "The Hidden One"--Writes about communities in Eastern Europe at a disastrous moment in history, but his themes achieve universal dimensions. The tales in this collection refuse easy moral judgments and often blur the line between perpetrator and victim. Members of Jewish Coucils display noble motives even as they collaborate with Nazi occupiers, and resistence fighters perform acts of betrayal and violence toward their own. Neither danger nor safety appears without a mask. Like his contemporary Kafka, to whom he is often compared, Der Nister writes in a deceptively simple style that exerts a powerful hold long after one has finihsed reading. The morally complex characters and richly layered stories of Regrowth ultimately reclaim a more nuanced view of crimes still not fully reckoned." Meylekh Magnus -- Flora -- Regrowth -- Heshl Ansheles -- Meyer Landshaft -- Rive Yosl Buntsies -- An acquaintance of mine. ISBN 9780810127364.

PAPERBACK, very good. SCHRAG, CALVIN O. Existence and freedom: towards an ontology of human finitude. Evanston, Ill: Northwestern University Press, 1977, 3d printing, xvi, 250pp., . ISBN on copyright page: 0810102243 appears to be faulty. - Careful reading among a dozen formidable authors in several languages could scarcely substitue for the unified view which this book offers of a revolution in Western thought -- existentialism. The book is praiseworthy for treating the leading existentialists and their forerunners, not seriatim, but as a "school", with dominant themes and governing concepts. Historically, existence and freedom finds these concepts in the writings of Kant, of the anti-Hegelian Kierkegaard and the anti-hegelian Marx, of the Lebensphilosophie school which included Nietzche, Dilthey, and Bergson, and of course more recently and most explicitly in the writings of Heidegger, Husserl, Berdyaev, Jaspers, Sartre, Marcel, Tillich. Philosophically it develops these themes and concepts toweard an understanding of the human condition -- an understanding which cuts deeper than logic, which comes before beliefs about a higher reality, and which grants man as much freedom as he can earn - CONTENTS: Methodological foundations: The existential thinker ; Phenomenology and existentialism ; The hermeneutic of existence ; Existential intentionality -- The existentialist concept of world: Man as being-in-the-world ; Structural analysis of the environmental world ; Structural analysis of the communal world ; Structural analysis of self-relatedness -- Anxiety and finitude: Anxiety and fear ; Anxiety, non-being, and freedom ; Boredom and melancholy ; Phenomenology of despair -- Death and transitoriness: Existence and mortality ; The external view of death ; Death and subjectivity ; Towards an ontology of death -- Time and history: Time and human concern ; The ecstatic character of tie ; Contemporaneity, repetition, and the moment ; The historicity of existence -- Conscience and guilt: Conscience and concern ; The ontological foundations of conscience ; Freedom, guilt, and sin ; Unauthentic and authentic guilt -- Decision and integrity: Freedom and choice ; The unauthentic mode ; Resolve and authenticity ; Authenticity and community. 9780810102248 ISBN 0810102242.
