Volume Containing Four Books by "Itzig Feitel Stern" – Anti-Semitic Stories and Poems with Illustrations and Sheet Music – Meissen, 1833-1835
A volume with four books by Itzig Feitel Stern [Heinrich Holzschuher]. Meissen: F. W. Goedsche, ca. 1833-1835. German and some Yiddish.
Itzig Feitel Stern was the pen name of the Christian author Heinrich Holzschuher, with which he signed a number of anti-Semitic works. His books contained dialogs, stories and poems written in flawed German, with the aim of imitating and ridiculing Jewish speech.
This volume contains the following books: • Gedichter, Probeln unn Schnoukes [two parts, ca. 1833]. • Louberhüttenkranz fer dien Eisig Herzfelder seiner Louberhütt. [ca. 1834]. • Die Schabbes Lamp vun pollische Messing,‎ mit ächt koschere Schimen. 1835. • Das Schabbes Gärtle vun unnere Leut. 1835.
Appearing at the beginning of each book is an illustrated title page with a Yiddish inscription, followed by plates with illustrations to the stories. One of the books contains two folded plates with sheet music and the lyrics of two Jewish songs.
Number of pages varies, approx. 17.5 cm. Good condition. Stains (mostly light, to margins). A few pages are partly detached, and several pages have tears and open tears to margins (not affecting text). Rubbing, tears and blemishes to binding.
