About this product
Product Information
Aba jsz nt is a picturesque town situated in northeastern Hungary amid vineyards and apple trees, with a cobblestoned main street. The area is noted for its Tokay wine, which Aba jsz nt 's Jewish merchants were instrumental in making internationally famous. The town's history illustrates the drama of Hungarian Jewry. Until the eighteenth century, Aba jsz nt 's Jews lived outside the town walls and could enter only during daytime for business and peddling. The emancipation of Hungarian Jewry in 1867 finally abolished all laws that denied Jews civil and political rights. The community engaged scholarly rabbis--the most renowned of whom was Rabbi Elazar L w (1758-1837), one of Hungary's greatest talmudic scholars, known also as Shemen Rokeah. In this book the rabbis' biographies and an annotated bibliography of their work appear for the first time in English. The book recounts the community's struggle and resourcefulness under the anti-Jewish laws, the steps from freedom to Auschwitz in 1944, and the disappointment after the war. The survivors returned home to find their houses occupied and their possessions taken. The author relates how denial of rights and the town's obligations to the Jewish community are evidenced as recently as 1992 when in a memorial, enacted to those who died in World War II, Aba jsz nt omitted the loss of its Jewish residents. This lack of empathy for the returnees and the continuous falsification of history are the saddest chapters of the post-Holocaust experience. Based on survivors' testimonies and Hungarian archival sources, Wine and Thorns provides an authentic account of Hungarian Jewish life as it was shaped by government regulations and world politics.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
