Hardcover. Publishers cloth. 8vo. 485 pages. 24 cm. First edition. In French. âVilna, Jerusalem of Lithuania'. "Though Vilnius is known today as the capital of Lithuania, at different times in its complex history it was also German, Polish and Russian, known as Wilna, Wilno and Vilna. A vital religious and political crossroads, it was considered the center of Judaism in Europe, giving birth to a group of renowned artists and intellectuals. In this enlightening work, Henri Minczeles exposes the city's remarkable history, which has been long misunderstood. Known to the Jews as Vilnè, the city was the heart of a culture and region which straddled several countries: Lithuania, Estonia, Belarus and Northern Ukraine. Both a cradle of Jewish socialism and a stronghold of Zionism, Vilnius experienced a veritable cultural golden age. It saw a boom in artistic, scholarly and literary activity, and the Yiddish language flourished. On the darker side, anti-Semitism, pogroms and ghettos also pervade Vilnius' history. The Shoah brought an end to prosperity, massacring an entire population and its culture and extinguishing the foremost center of rabbinical learning in Europe. The result of years of research, Henri Minczeles' work illuminates the history of this legendary city known as the Jerusalem of Lithuania.

Profusely Illustrated. (illustrator). Near fine (covers nice; contents clean & tight). Thick small 8vo., pictorial cardboard wraps with French-fold stiff card dust jacket; 585 pages First French Edition. Signed presentation from Silvain on the title page. Text in French. This book provides a journey into the heart of Yiddishland, a mythical and real land that has never appeared on a map of the world, but whose frontiers have forged rivers, crossed oceans and spanned continents. Although, tragically, it no longer exists, Yiddishland - a huge area that stretched from Poland to the Ukraine, Belorussia, Romania, Bessarabia, Eastern Hungary and the Baltic States - lives on through the telling imagery of the humble postcard. Gleaned from the millions preserved in attics, trunks and Jewish family archives all over the world, this remarkable collection brings to life the immutable rhythm of the shtetl. The pages are alive with rabbis, professional marriage brokers, itinerant water carriers, bright-eyed yeshivot students, porters, beggars and brilliant intellectuals, plus synagogues, hospitals, cemeteries and those sadly unavoidable scenes of suffering and persecution. These poignant, touching, and alarming images capture fleeting moments, frozen in time, and portray a civilization which might otherwise have been forgotten. Uncommon to find autographed copies.
