Tractate Admonim. Tel Aviv, 1923. An Anti-Communist Satire
The Admonim [Red] tractate from the Bolshevik Talmud. With the perush"a and old and sleepy Tosefot and novaelle of the Maharsha and more, by Avshalom Bar Daroma. Tel Aviv, 1923.
A biting and wttiy anti-Communist satirical work. Written in the style of the Babylonian Talmud with 'commentaries' around the text: "Rasha", "Old and Sleepy Tosefot", Novaelle of Maharasha", "Or Tura" and "Mesirat HaSus" instead of Rashi, Tosefot, Maharsha, Torah Or and Mesoret Hashas. "Our Rabbis taught us: There are six hundred thousand Communists in Russia. Ten of them are crazy...ten out of a hundred are fools who believe anything. And the rest - thieves and robbers... one who sees red people in a dream should expect searches, theft and bloodshed...".
Avshalom Bar Daroma is the pen name of Avshalom Shlomo Melamed, the author of 'Masechet Socharim' and the autobiography 'Chaim Kmo She'hem'.
