For people interested in this book, I would just like to note that there
are many, many factual errors within it, and one should be cautious before
recommending it for research use.

Re: [ha-Safran] Upcoming Event: "Stolen Words: The Nazi Plunder of Jewish Books, " by Mark Glickman. Tuesday, May 3, 12 noon

[Michelle Chesner]

I believe my review of the book, with specific (selected) examples, was
included in the most recent News and Reviews.  I'll copy it here as well.
Readers can make their own judgements; I simply advise reading carefully
and critically.

Glickman, Mark.  *Stolen Words: The Nazi Plunder of Jewish Books*.
Philadelphia: Jewish Publication Society, 2016.  327 pp.  ISBN:
9870827612082 $29.95


The story of the Nazi confiscation of Jewish books and the ongoing story of
efforts to restore them to their owners is an extraordinary one, and in
recent years, many books have emerged to detail various aspects of this
history.  Mark Glickman’s *Stolen Words* attempts to do that, but is
unfortunately so error-ridden that it is difficult to separate fact from
fiction.


The book would greatly have benefited from both copy editing and peer
review, as instances of blatant errors, both typographical and factual,
abound.  As a small sample: In his multi-chapter introduction to the work,
which attempts to summarize a history of Jewish printing, Glickman writes
that the first Hebrew book was printed in 1475, notwithstanding the great
work of Moses Marx and Adri Offenberg, which conclusively prove the Roman
imprints to have been printed between 1469-1472 (the first *dated* book was
printed in 1475, but the distinction is important).  More concerning was
Glickman’s identification of famed Roman printers Sweynheyn and Pannatz as
German Jews, when they most certainly were not.  In a footnote, Glickman
cites “50,000 editions of Jewish incunabula,” when surely he meant to write
“copies.”  The many errors that I encountered throughout the book shed
doubt on the accuracy of the entire work.


For someone very interested in this topic, the most interesting point of
the book would have been the bibliography, where one could at least find
further materials to read on the subject, but unfortunately there is none.


The  book essentially summarizes some of the major works on the subject,
including Dana Herman’s dissertation, *Hashavat Avedah: A History of Jewish
Cultural Reconstruction, Inc.*; * Holocaust and the Book: Destruction and
Preservation *(ed. Jonathan A. Rose); David Fishman’s *Embers Plucked from
the Fire: The Rescue of Jewish Cultural Treasures in Vilna; *Robert M.
Edsel’s* The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves, and the Greatest
Treasure Hunt in History *(although there’s a typo in his citation for this
book); and others.  It would behoove an interested reader to pick up some
of the books listed above rather than this one in order to obtain a more
accurate view of the incredible story of the “robbery and restitution” of
Jewish books during and after World War II.

[ha-Safran] Looking for a couple translated poems

[Danielle Winter]

I am looking for a few Hebrew poems in English translation. This might be a
wild goose chase because I am not even sure if they have been translated or
published. Looking into it for a patron

Rahel/Rachel's poem entitled "Rahel/Rachel"
I know there is a collection of her poems:
*Flowers of Perhaps: Selected Poems of Ra'hel*
I couldn't seem to access the index or table of contents to know if this
poem is in the above collection.

Also, Shaul Tchernichovsky's poem "The Sixth of Twilight"

Mind you - there can be variation in the titles...

Thanks so much for any information,

Danielle

Re: [ha-Safran] Looking for a couple translated poems

[Annette Goldsmith]

Danielle, I have "Rachel" and will scan it and email it to you. I found it
in *Voices Within the Ark: The Modern Jewish Poets*, ed. by Howard Schwartz
and Anthony Rudolf.

Since the title of Tchernikowsky's "The Sixth of Twilight" could be
something else entirely, I checked *Selected Poems of Saul Tchernikowsky*
and the closest title I have is "On Friday Towards Eventide." Do you think
that's a possibility? I think it's a long shot but will scan it as well if
you'd like it.

[ha-Safran] Recording of the Hebrew Bible in English (in addition to the JPS)

[Amalia Warshenbrot]

My friend, a local Rabbi,  would like the have a recording of the Bible IN 
ENGLISH. He has the JPS, but, he wonders how come there are so many recording 
of the New Testament (he feels that a lot is lost in translation of their  
translation of Hebrew Bible) ) yet, we, who call ourselves "the people of the 
Book", can't enjoy different voices and more translations.  
Do you have any suggestions for him ?

[ha-Safran] Has anyone used or heard about Library World inexpensive library automation package based on Apple inhouse product?

[NinaLane]

Good evening all:

Has anyone used or heard about Library World inexpensive library automation 
package based on Apple inhouse product?  We heard about this from an IT guy on 
our temple's IT committee. $495 sounds to good to be true.  Of course, it's 
ONLY cloud-based.

Thank you for any thoughts!

Sincerely,

Nina Lane
