---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <hola...@uchicago.edu> Date: Thu, Feb 11, 2010 at 11:41 AM Subject: [Artdepart] Books needed for synagogue in Crete Dear friends, The 600-year old synagogue of Crete has been the victim of two separate arson attacks that devastated their entire library. The Yiddish Book Center in Amherst, Mass., has offered to replace some of the titles. I'm writing this to see if anyone has any of the books in the list of the books they are looking to replace. If you do, and would like to donate them, please get in touch with me and I will take care of the shipping costs. They need a variety of books, such as encyclopaedias, dictionaries, etc, in several fields, in English, Hebrew or Greek. They have a particular need for books on Byzantine, Jewish, Islamic and Ottoman art and general art history. For more information and for a link to the list of books, see http://www.yiddishbookcenter.org/node/610 Igor H. de Souza Committee on Jewish Studies University of Chicago hola...@uchicago.edu Caroline R.
