Description
Washington: Judd & Detweiler, 1885. Original printed wrappers with wrapper title [as issued], stitched. 74pp, a clean text. Several extremity chips to blank wrapper margins, else Very Good. Voorhees was U.S. Senator from Indiana at the time of this trial. He had been a Copperhead during the War. A talented lawyer, he had defended one of John Brown's accomplices in the Harper's Ferry trials. In this case the deceased, Edward Henry, "had an affair with Mrs. Johnson. When her husband became aware of it, she committed suicide. Johnson then killed Henry with a shotgun" [McDade, who cites this pamphlet as the sole source for the trial]. After Johnson killed Henry, Johnson gave himself up. Voorhees lauds Johnson's sterling character, to which many solid citizens of Johnson's and Voorhees's native Indiana attested. "While this most unhappy defendant stood faithfully at his post of duty, Henry incessantly haunted his wife's presence and preyed upon her weakness." McDade 518.

Tübingen: Mohr Siebeck, 2016. First edition. Hardcover. Like new. Quarto (9 1/4 x 6 1/2"). [6], 189, [5]pp. Original printed dust-jacket over gilt-stamped blue cloth, with gold lettering to spine and front cover. "Following the analysis of the Hebrew basis-text through the edition of the Genizah fragments (2003) and the synopsis of the manuscripts of both versions of Avot de-Rabbi Natan (2006), Hans-Jürgen Becker presents a translation of Version B with this volume. The translation is in alignment with the text research for this work, which is a central source for historical interpretation and wisdom of antique Rabbinic Judaism, and renders the work accessible to interested neighbouring disciplines. The basis of the translation is the oldest and most completely preserved manuscript MS Parma 2785 (= de Rossi 327, Spain 1289), supplemented by the MS Vatican 303 (Italy, 15 th century). Translation-relevant variations of all textual witnesses are annotated or documented in a synoptic depiction. The greatest possible literality is aimed for and difficult passages are not linguistically concealed. The remarks indicate possible understandings of the text without preempting its interpretation." (From the Publishers). Text in German. Dust-jacket, binding and interior in like new condition.
