Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of Jewish History, Vol. 1 of 3 Agrippa held in his hand a roll of papyrus neatly written, which he was extending towards his eldest daughter. Thou wilt deliver it with my blessing to thy brother, beloved, he said, speaking with difficulty; therein is penned all that has occurred to thy father, in a life full Of vicissitude; it may serve as a warning and a lesson to my son in good or evil fortune. Tell him, Berenice, that I have done this, that when my heart is still, my tongue mute, enemies - and the fortunate have always many such - shall not speak falsely of Agrippa. When he reads in this scroll the tale Of my weakness and folly, let him consider, that his father was a man, sub ject to human passions, human foibles. That night, amid the tears of all who knew his virtues, the last monarch Of Judea paid the debt of nature and with him died the last faint ray of independence in Palestine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of Jewish History, Vol. 2 of 3 The balmy breath of morning came freshly through the casement, half opened to admit the air, making the close atmosphere of the dark ened chamber seem doubly noxious. And the sickly glare of the untrimmed tapers that dimly lighted the room, enhanced the beauty of the stray sunbeam, that forced its way through the heavy draperies. There is a sweet charm in the quiet stillness of early morning, when earth, refreshed from her slumbers, sends her incense offering up to hea ven; and bee and bird and flower join in the universal hymn of praise, while the running stream and sparkling dew laugh in the light of the newly risen sun.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Jews, Vol. 1 of 3: From the Earliest Period to the Present Time The Author must add, that, although the Sacred Records of the Jews have been wonderfully, he cannot suppose that they have been miraculously. Preserved; so as to be exempt from those sligh accidental corruptions, or interpolations, whi writings, so far the oldest in the world, could no well have escaped.

Download or read book Leaves from the Garden of Eden written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-09-23 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Leaves from the Garden of Eden, Howard Schwartz, a three-time winner of the National Jewish Book Award, has gathered together one hundred of the most astonishing and luminous stories from Jewish folk tradition. Just as Schwartz's award-winning book Tree of Souls collected the essential myths of Jewish tradition, Leaves from the Garden of Eden collects one hundred essential Jewish tales. As imaginative as the Arabian Nights, these stories invoke enchanted worlds, demonic realms, and mystical experiences. The four most popular types of Jewish tales are gathered here--fairy tales, folktales, supernatural tales, and mystical tales--taking readers on heavenly journeys, lifelong quests, and descents to the underworld. There is a dybbuk lurking in a well, a book that comes to life, and a world where Lilith, the Queen of Demons, seduces the unsuspecting. Here too are Jewish versions of many of the best-known tales, including "Cinderella," "Snow White," and "Rapunzel." Schwartz's retelling of one of these stories, "The Finger," inspired Tim Burton's film Corpse Bride.

Download or read book Folktales of the Jews V 3 Tales from Arab Lands written by Dan Ben Amos and published by Jewish Publication Society. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 873 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thanks to these generous donors for making the publication of the books in this series possible: Lloyd E. Cotsen; The Maurice Amado Foundation; National Endowment for the Humanities; and the National Foundation for Jewish Culture Tales from Arab Lands presents tales from North Africa, Yemen, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq in the latest volume of the most important collection of Jewish folktales ever published. This is the third book in the multi-volume series in the tradition of Louis Ginzberg?s timeless classic, Legends of the Jews. The tales here and the others in this series have been selected from the Israel Folktale Archives (IFA), named in Honor of Dov Noy, at The University of Haifa, a treasure house of Jewish lore that has remained largely unavailable to the entire world until now. Since the creation of the State of Israel, the IFA has collected more than 20,000 tales from newly arrived immigrants, long-lost stories shared by their families from around the world. The tales come from the major ethno-linguistic communities of the Jewish world and are representative of a wide variety of subjects and motifs, especially rich in Jewish content and context. Each of the tales is accompanied by in-depth commentary that explains the tale's cultural, historical, and literary background and its similarity to other tales in the IFA collection, and extensive scholarly notes. There is also an introduction that describes the culture and its folk narrative tradition, a world map of the areas covered, illustrations, biographies of the collectors and narrators, tale type and motif indexes, a subject index, and a comprehensive bibliography. Until the establishment of the IFA, we had had only limited access to the wide range of Jewish folk narratives. Even in Israel, the gathering place of the most wide-ranging cross-section of world Jewry, these folktales have remained largely unknown. Many of the communities no longer exist as cohesive societies in their representative lands; the Holocaust, migration, and changes in living styles have made the continuation of these tales impossible. This series is a monument to a rich but vanishing oral tradition. This series is a monument to a rich but vanishing oral tradition.
