Hand-writtten recordings of the school song for West Side Junior High in Little Rock, AK. "Here's to West Side, Dear of West Side, Your the school we love the best, Wit your colors gaily flying, You have always stood the test, When we leave you, We believe you will always be our greatest pride, And we will show you how much we owe you, Will always boost for you our Dear West Side." Comes with October 1934 issue of "West Side Junior Life" student newspaper. Pages are filled with poems and lines from classmates over the years. Many of the inscriptions are pithy short poems or lines. "Dear Charlene, I wish you health, I wish you wealth, I wish you gold in store, I wish you heaven after death, What could I wish you more?" "In your mud puddles of affection, Let one tad pole swim for me." "When you're in the kitchen frying meat, think of me and my big feet." "If you're within and I'm without, I'll think of you without a doubt." Some broke with this convention. "I do not know any poem but I pity the person that worries their head off to get one." Other include more personal notes on their memories together. "Remember our Spanish Class and the study hall before it." Two newspaper clipping portraits of school friends pasted into book.

Title: Hebrew Style in the Liturgical Poetry of Shmuel HaShlishi
Author: Naoya Katsumata (author)
Seller: Eric Chaim Kline - Bookseller (United States)
ISBN: 9789004131514
Condition: Fine
Description: Leiden: Brill . STYX, 2003. First edition. Hardcover. Fine. Octavo. xlii, 377, (1)pp. Text in Hebrew, preface and table of content also in English. Red cloth lettered in gilt. A fine, as new copy. Shmuel ben Hoshana, the most important Hebrew liturgical poet (paytan) in the final stage of the flowering of the Eretz-Israeli piyyut, came of age in the latter third of the tenth century. He was active in the academy of Eretz Israel, and reached the status of the third ("HaShlishi") in the assembly, after the gaon and the av bet din. This volume examines the Hebrew style of this paytan according to some 650 Genizah fragments, which contain elements of his wide-ranging oeuvre (orthography and phonetics, morphology, syntax, sentences, vocabulary, themes and motifs). Understanding the style of Shmuel HaShlishi is critical to our understanding of the creative activity of the paytanim of the final period of the flowering of the Eretz-Israeli piyyut. His style serves as a link between the Eretz-Israeli style of the early paytanim and the new style that would emerge in Spain. (Publisher) Volume 5 of the Brill . STYX series, Hebrew Language and Literature. (HLLS).
