15. Carmilly- Weinberger Moshe. On Three Continents; An Autobiography. Romania: EFES, 2007. 266 pp. + 43 photos. Very Good. Cloth.
Professor Weinberger describes his childhood in Transylvania, studies in a typical Hungarian yeshiva, then his experiences at the Rabbinical Seminaries in Budapest and Breslau. He is one of the few remaining scholars who can give a first hand account of the glory days of these two venerable institutions and the great teachers and personalities who taught there, such as Ludwig Blau, Simon Hevesi, Michael Guttmann, Arnold Kiss, etc. His vivid recollections of these two institutions bring back to life the pre-Holocaust world in a way that no mere academic treatise can. The chapters on his tenure as Chief Rabbi of the Neolog community in Cluj-Kolozsvar in Transylvania (from the mid1930’s to 1944) are also a lively, fascinating and at times dramatic portrait of a vanished world. The anguish of the Holocaust, his remarkable journey to Palestine amidst the ruins of war-torn Romania and his subsequent experiences in pre-state Israel and his career in the Israeli diplomatic service as envoy to Budapest also make for gripping, exciting reading. His book is also an account of his life up to and including his visit to China circa. 1980’s (he & late wife were on the first organized Jewish tour to China)

Good. Wrapper.
Even if the author calls himself “Rabbi Leibel,” there is something simple and unsophisticated about the writing. Its even hard to say when its written. One page where he is declaring a fast day , has the date: the eve of Rosh Hashanah 1933. The ceremony he is suggesting for Kol Nidre night, seems more appropriate for right after the war, when the extent of the Holocaust was well known.I don’t think he would suggest saying the blessing of Baruch Dayan Emet, repeated when someone has died, in 1933 when Jews were not being murdered.(By the way, no one whould rip their clothes in grief right before Kol Nidre, and certainly not in 1933. ) The page where he is praying for the destruction of Hitler and Hitlerism,is not clearly dated. His Hebrew-Yiddish diction is quite unclear .So the situation is quite confusing-it is dated at 1933, but seems to have later material also. (261357) $265.00

61. Maryan [SIGNED]; Cassou, Jean (Introduction). Illustrations pour “Le proces” de Franz Kafka; [10 + Prints]. Paris: Caracteres, 1953. 18 of 110 copies. Portfolio. Thirteen 24″x28″ sheets of heavy “chiffon” paper, folded in half, in like case. The case is a wrapper (with flaps) and has been protected with glassine paper. The glassine is browning, and torn along the spine, but has served its function of keeping the wrapper bright, and unscathed: the wrapper itself has only negligible fraying at the crown and the faintest of toning at the extreme top and bottom edge (really less than a millimeter!), the spine has fold creases as is inevitable for a chiffone portfolio that is not flat. Except for the lightest of toning (again only on the very extreme edges–mere mms) and the tiniest of crinkles to the corners, all sheets are in pristine condition. The first sheet is the title page, which has the same print as the cover. A beautiful bookplate (designed for Perelman) that could be the work of Maryan is very lightly pasted in (by the top edge only) on the side facing the tp. The next sheet has the artist’s dedication on the front, and Cassou’s introduction within (continued on back): “Aussi l’artiste que voici, Maryan, a-t-il vu juste en choisissant pour illustrer, non plus exactement pour evoquer, le plus beau roman de Kafka, et des motifs judaiques…Pas plus qu’on ne resiste a l’imperieuse rigueur de l’accusation et du verdict, on ne reisste a ce tragique vehement, a cet epais parfum de Bible et de ghetto que degagent les images Maryan.” was the chief conservator at the What follow are ten sheets each with a richly textured, truly kafkaesque print, illustrating scenes from the novel. These are printed on the inside, and each is protected by a loose glassine overlay. A nice touch is that the titles (L’interrogateur; Leni; La Fin) on the front of each folded sheet all begin with a strikingly printed capital L, each one unique. The final sheet has a heartbreaking image of a figure seated at a table with the scales of justice on the front, and the copyright page, SIGNED by the artist: “Cet ouvrage a ete acheve d’imprimer le 10 juin 1953 par Bruno Durocher puor le compte de sa collection “Caracteres”. Edition Imprimerie des Poetes, 16, cite Bisson, Paris (20^e). Il en a ete tire 110 exemplaires sur offset pur chiffon numerotes de 1 a 110. Numero de cet exemplaire: 13″ {may be 18: the stamp is rather baroque}. Very Good.
Pinchas Burstein, who began showing work under the name Maryan (later Maryan S. Maryan) in the early 50s, was born in 1927 in Nowy Sacz. He spent the duration of the war, from age 12 to 18, in concentration camps, from 1940 on at Auschwitz, where he lost his leg, shot by guards. Most of his family perished in the camps: both his parents, his brother, and his sister. These illustrations, his first publication, are dedicated to their memory. In the early 60s, he moved from Paris to New York, where he died of a heart attack at the age of 50. His work was exhibited in Paris and Jerusalem during his lifetime, but received wider critical attention only posthumously. Despite its reductive (and exaggerated) first sentence, “A survivor of six years in the Auschwitz concentration camp,” Grace Glueck’s 1985 Times review of simultaneous New York retrospectives, goes beyond summarizing his life and offers a perceptive survey of the art he made of it: “Maryan painted monsters and grotesques, single images only. He called them “Personages”. When he began to exhibit in the early 1950s, they had overtly Jewish themes; later they became more general. For a while they were brutal, exagerratedly Picassoid forms…In the early 60’s, they were mocking, clownish zombies with masklike faces and lolling tongues, suggesting visual realizations of characters from Gunter Grass’s ‘Tin Drum.’ Later, they got wilder and more gestural, with maybe a touch of de Kooning, winding up as slobbering, almost illegible bundles of mouths, flailing limbs and flying organs. His work was autobiographical, Maryan said, yet the autobiography is highly inferential.” In contrasting “the ironic sprightliness with which the work is done” to “its misanthropic message”, she echoes Cassou, who fought in the resistance, was removed from his post at the Musée d’art moderne, when the Vichy regime took power in 1940. From his introduction: “Aussi l’artiste que voici, Maryan, a-t-il vu juste en choisissant pour illustrer, non plus exactement pour evoquer, le plus beau roman de Kafka, et des motifs judaiques…Pas plus qu’on ne resiste a l’imperieuse rigueur de l’accusation et du verdict, on ne reisste a ce tragique vehement, a cet epais parfum de Bible et de ghetto que degagent les images Maryan.” (261355) $1,250.00
