Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. In Hebrew. 252, (1) pages. 203 x 134 mm. Saul M. Ginsburg (Shaul Moiseevich Ginsburg)(Minsk, Russian Empire 1866 -New York, 16 November 1940) was a Jewish-Belarusian American author, editor, and historian of Russian Jewry. He received both a traditional Jewish and a secular education. In 1891 he graduated with a law degree from the University of St. Petersburg. In 1892 Ginsburg began writing for the Russian-Jewish periodical Voskhod in St. Petersburg, where he remained for the next several decades. His contributions to Voskhod included articles on Russian Jewish history, and a regularly appearing survey of the Hebrew press (under the pseudonym "Ha-Kore"). In 1899 he became a member of the editorial board. Together with Pesach Marek, Ginsburg compiled an anthology of Yiddish-language folk songs (Evreiskiia narodnyia piesni v Rossii), which was published as a supplement to Voskhod in 1901, and came to be regarded as a landmark work in Jewish folklore. In 1903 Ginsburg founded Der fraynd (The Friend), the first Yiddish-language newspaper to be published in St. Petersburg, and the first Yiddish daily in the Russian Empire. With its high literary and orthographic standards, the paper is credited with helping to shape the development of modern Yiddish culture. Ginsburg withdrew as an editor at Der fraynd in 1908 and in the following years devoted himself more fully to studies of the political, social, and cultural history of Russian Jewry. In 1913 he published a study of Russian Jews at the time of the invasion of Russia in 1812 during the Napoleonic Wars (Otechestvennaya voina 1812 goda i russkie yevrei). He also co-edited the Russian-language journal Perezhitoe (1908-1913), which specialized in the publication of primary sources for Russian Jewish history. In 1919 Ginsburg became a professor of Jewish history at the newly opened Institute of Higher Jewish Studies in Petrograd, as St. Petersburg was by then known, which offered the first university-level program in Jewish studies in Russia. He continued to teach there until the institute closed, in 1925, by which time the Soviet Union had been established (in 1922), and the city had been renamed Leningrad. Ginsburg emigrated from the Soviet Union in 1930, settling at first in Paris. C. 1933 he immigrated to the United States and settled in New York City, where he published popular historical essays regularly in the Yiddish-language newspaper Forverts (Jewish Daily Forward). A three-volume Yiddish-language collection of Ginsburg's historical writings on Russian Jewry (Historishe verk) was published in New York in 1937-1938; two additional volumes of collected writings were published posthumously, in 1944 and 1946.…

No Binding. Condición: Very Good. 260 x 185 mm. In acid free Mylar envelope. Menu of the famed Stockholm restaurant Hasselbacken, printed especially for a gala dinner on September 6, 1889. Printed after an illustration by Axel Sjöberg, who was often commissioned for such illustrations by Hasselbacken. The gala was part of the International Congress of Orientalists held at shared locations: Stockholm, Sweden and Christiania, Denmark. Orientalists from Europe, American the Middle East and Asia were invited to the United Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway to participate in the Eighth International Orientalist Congress, held between 1 and 12 September. Apparently at least 530 people were invited to the convention but I do not know if all of them were invited to Hasselbacken nor what the seating capacity of the restaurant was back in 1889. The current restaurant can seat approximately 140 people. The menu was painted by Axel Sjoberg. Axel Sjöberg (6 November 1866 - 5 October 1950) was a Swedish painter. His work was part of the painting event in the art competition at the 1932 Summer Olympics. His work was featured in an exhibition at the Nationalmuseum Sweden and has appeared at auction multiple times, with realized prices ranging from $339 to $4,973.
