No Binding. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. Gutman, Nahum (illustrator). In Hebrew. 28 x 22 cm. 444 pages: xxxi, 4 pages of plates, 408, {(1) pages. Tipped in frontispiece photo. Printed on good quality paper. With blue silk ribbon bookmark. Book block is solid but spine & back board are missing, front board detached and small water stain throughout, v. small tear on page 217. S. Ben Tsyion was the pen name of Simha Alter Guttman, Hebrew writer, educator, newspaper editor (Ha-Omer, Haaretz literary supplement), publisher, co-founder of Tel Aviv, and father of the writer and great artist Nachum Gutman, a few of whose illustrations appear here. He received a traditional heder education but was also exposed to Hebrew maskilic literature. His first story, "Mayn khaver" (My Friend), appeared in Yiddish (1899); he later translated it into Hebrew and published it under the title "Meshi" (Silk; 1902). His subsequent Hebrew stories appeared in prominent journals. In 1897 Ben-Tsiyon left his detested profession, cattle trading, and switched to teaching, an occupation he regarded as his true calling and in which he was very successful. In 1899 the prestigious Ha-Hinukh society invited him to Odessa to teach in the city's modernized heder, a school that quickly became a model institution. In 1900 Hayim Nahman Bialik was invited to teach under Ben-Tsiyon's supervision, and a friendship between the two men blossomed. An innovative teacher who pioneered the Ivrit be-ivrit method (teaching Hebrew and related subjects by using solely the Hebrew language), Ben-Tsiyon systematically compiled the graded Ben-'ami textbook series; the first of its many editions was issued in 1904. Ben-Tsiyon was part of the Sofre Odessa, a circle of writers who had a major influence upon the development of Hebrew culture and literature. He was an ardent follower of Mendele Moykher-Sforim, even though they differed in their views about Zionism. With the goal of revitalizing Hebrew education, Ben-Tsiyon joined with Bialik, Elhanan Leib Lewinsky, and Yehoshu'a Hana Ravnitski to establish the Moriah Press. Throughout this period, Ben-Tsiyon remained one of the most highly regarded writers of his generation, exhibiting his finest skill in the stories "Al ketseh gevul ha-yaldut" (On the Edge of Childhood; 1899), "Nefesh retsutsah" (Fragmented Soul; 1902), "Zekenim" (Elders; 1903), and "Me-'?Ever le-hayim" (Beyond Life; 1904). In 1905, with his wife and five children, Ben-Tsiyon left Odessa for Palestine, and was one of the founders of Tel Aviv in 1909, where he remained until his death in 1932. As a disciple follower of Ahad Ha-Am, Ben-Tsiyon planned to create a literary center in pre-state Israel, modeled on the Odessa circle. The scholarly journal Ha-?Omer and his continuing textbook series were part of this agenda. In 1910 he helped devise the youth periodical Moledet, which was published under the auspices of the Palestine Teachers Union. The journal was initially issued in 1911; however, by the end of its first year Ben-Tsiyon was removed from its editorial body by the teachers' central board. His failures as an editor embittered him, and he subsequently dissociated himself from cultural, public, and literary activities. His hope that in Palestine he would sustain the leadership position he had held in Odessa was dashed. Ruptures widened between Ben-Tsiyon and the workers? parties that had set the tone for literary standards in Palestine, as well as personally between him and their leaders (including Berl Katsenelson). These rejections led him to associate with "civilian circles" whose contribution to cultural activity in those years was marginal. Still, he continued to compile his textbook series Ben-'ami. In 1914, just before World War I, he published Kol ketavav (All His Writings) in two volumes, and when the British occupied Eretz Israel, he edited the literary supplement Shai shel sifrut (The Gift of Literature), which was attached to the daily ?adashot meha-arets (1918?1919), and Ha-Ezrah, an anthology . . , ,

Book
Flexible Hardcover. Condition: Good. In Hebrew. (1), 161 Pages. 132 x 96 mm. Pages yellow and brittle. First leaf detached. Damage to foot of out spine strip.The Book of Beliefs and Opinions (completed in 933 CE) was written by Saadia Gaon and is the first systematic presentation and philosophical foundation of the dogmas of Judaism. The translation of the work was originally titled The Book of the Articles of Faith and Doctrines of Dogma, but is better known in the Hebrew translation of Judah ben Saul ibn Tibbon (1186 CE) as Emunot ve-Deot (Beliefs and Opinions). The work has an introduction and ten chapters. The work was mainly written as a defense of Rabbinic Judaism against the views of Karaite Judaism, which rejects the oral law (Mishnah and Talmud). In his detailed introduction, Saadia speaks of the reasons that led him to compose it. He grieved when he saw the confusion concerning matters of religion that prevailed among his contemporaries, finding an unintelligent belief and unenlightened views current among those who professed Judaism, while those who denied the faith triumphantly vaunted their errors. Men were sinking in the sea of doubt and overwhelmed by the waves of spiritual error, and there was none to help them; so that Saadia felt duty bound to save them from their peril by strengthening the faithful in their belief and by removing the fears of those who were in doubt. After a general presentation of the causes of lack of faith and the essence of belief, Saadia describes the three natural sources of knowledge: perceptions of the senses, light of reason, and logical necessity, as well as the fourth source of knowledge possessed by those fear God, the "veritable revelation" contained in the Scriptures. He shows that a belief in the teachings of Revelation does not exclude an independent search for knowledge, but that speculation on religious subjects rather endeavors to prove the truth of the teachings received from the Prophets and to mitigate attacks upon revealed doctrine, which must be raised by philosophic investigation to the plane of actual knowledge. The work was originally in Arabic, was translated by rabbi and physician Judah ben Saul Ibn Tibbon, who also translated the Kuzari of Judah Halevi. This version was first printed in Constantinople in 1562.
