RARE compilation of all articles of the third year (dritter Jahrgang) of `Ben-Chananja`, one of the most influential 19th century Jewish periodicals in German. The editor of this periodical was Leopold (Lipot) Löw (1811-1875) - the outstanding Reform rabbi of nineteenth-century Hungary, historian, and Judaic scholar; he was one of the first rabbis in Hungary to combine rigorous traditional training with a university education, advocating religious, educational, and communal reforms in his manifold roles as preacher, polemicist, editor, scholar, and historian. He played an important part in the fight for Jewish emancipation and the Magyarization of Hungarian Jewry. The `Ben-Chananja` issues deal with questions related to Jews, Judaism, and their relation to the secular government and the modern world. 135x215mm. VIII+672 pages.
