Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Two-page preface by the translator. ***Good in dark red cloth-covered boards with gilt titles and ornate gilt floral decoration to spine. Floral decorated front and rear free endpapers. Contemporaneous Jewish Religous Education Board Prize bookplate pasted to front paste-down. Edges of boards slightly rubbed. Very small 1cm split to outer cloth of head of spine. Head and tail of spine slightly rubbed. Corners of boards slightly bumped. Top corner-tips creased to a very few pages. No foxing. Pages clean. Spine tight. xi prelim-pages plus 359 pages. 188mm x 130mm. ***'The object of the following pages is to give to the student and general reader a fair idea of the contents of The Talmud. ***Some time since the translator was asked how it was that no English translation of the Talmud was in existence, and being convinced that may would be interested in its contents, he resolved upon the book which he now presents to the public. It is merely a collection of specimens, and makes no pretensions to any more advanced standing. The only object has bee to give in plain, easy language, a correct idea of the scope, and as general an idea as possible of the varied sections of the ancient and wonderful book. ***A portion of the introduction is taken from the preface to the Mishna of Maimonides; the chronology is from the "Seder Haddoroth" (Order of Historical Ages), and the sketches of the Rabbis from the Talmud are taken from various hints afforded by the book itself, joined with opinions of the translator. The sketches of Maimonides, Rashi, and Rabbi Amnon of Metz, are translated from the "Seder Haddoroth," while the incidents, parables, legends, lectures, and aphorisms, all directly from the Talmud, are placed in order thought suitable by the translator, and not as they regularly occur. The portion devoted to the Holy Days is from the work entitled "Menorath Hammdore" (The Lamp of the Light), the greater part of which is originally from the Talmud.' (Quote from the preface by the translator). ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…
