    The family memories of Robert Kanfer : Vienna – London – Cheltenham - Vienna. (2005)

    Pages: 84 , bound typescript; illustrated.

    Keywords: Boehm family. ; Kanfer family. ; Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Wien. ; Buchenwald (Concentration camp) ; Dachau (Concentration camp) ; Universität für Angewandte Kunst Wien. ; Antisemitism ; Architects. ; Education, Higher ; Emigration and immigration ; Jews Persecutions ; Kindertransports (Rescue operations) ; Austria History Anschluss, 1938. ; England Emigration and immigration. ; Shanghai (China) ; Vienna (Austria) ; Autobiographies ; Biographical sources ; Memoirs
    Abstract: The memoir includes a pedigree, photographs, representing the whole family, grandparents, parents, himself, in the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s. The manuscript starts with Robert Kanfer's grandparents' background, then covers the Boehm family--his wife Susie's family. Susie's father was Jewish. Her Catholic mother helped her husband's parents to get a visa. Her grandfather was Alfred Boehm. The next chapter covers vague memories of the "Anschluss" in March 1938. Robert Kanfer's father, Max Kanfer, was arrested by the Gestapo and deported to Buchenwald concentration camp. There he spent 4 months, and 4 more in Dachau concentration camp. Robert Kanfer's mother Bertha was forced to scrub off the streets which is vividly described. He describes a few more of these cruel daily antisemitic attacks. Since the family had a very limited budget, obtaining visas became quite difficult. The family had to separate and reunite only many years later, in 1947. The father emigrated to Shanghai, Robert could escape on a Kindertransport in 1939. He would spend the coming eleven years in England. Robert's brother Fritz was eager to move back to Vienna, and wanted his family to join him. He arranged for Robert to study architecture at the Viennese Academy of Fine Arts, which finally convinced Robert to join his brother. So he moved back to Vienna in 1950. He started to study with famous Austrian architect Clemens Holzmeister, but later changed to the Academy of Applied Arts in Vienna, to study with Franz Schuster. After graduation, he soon opened his own office. Throughout his career, he designed 10 Novotel hotels in Austria. He got married to his first wife Evi, they got a son, Roland. Soon they got a divorce, and Robert married Susy who he had known for a long time.

She received private tutoring, coming from a well-off family. The "Anschluss" in 1938 changed everything. The family business was taken away and Sylvia Cherny provides a short chronology of its whereabouts. Her father commited suicide after the Anschluss, fearing the Gestapo who was looking for him. Sylvia Cherny went on a Kindertransport to France, then fled via Lisbon to New York. The final pages cover the first years in Melbourne, Australia, where she had joined her mother and her stepfather.

    Abstract: Chronicle divided into sections on the Oliven, Schottländer, and Meyer families from the 18th through the 20th centuries as well as an autobiographical memoir by Klaus Oliven.
    Abstract: The manuscript is richly illustrated in full color, including several family photographs and portraits as well as reproductions of documents. The manuscript is divided into sections on each family, and then further subdivided into topical headings and short biographies of individual family members; some family tree diagrams are also included. For the most part the tone is rather more like a memoir, as Oliven offers his recollections of anecdotes from the lives of members of his extended family. Longer sections are devoted to Klaus Oliven's immediate family, including his father Fritz Oliven, who was known as the humorist and librettist Rideamus. There is also a section on the family of his wife Seldi Reifen.

    Abstract: Max Liebmann describes his school life and how unbearable conditions grew after Hitler was elected chancellor. One time a pupil harassed him, but he fought back. He stayed in public school until 1937, and then attended a private school. He had to leave school after “Kristallnacht”, when all Jews were excluded from non-Jewish schools. In March 1938, his father had left for Greece in order to explore new business possibilities. Max Liebmann never saw him again. With the outbreak of World War II, Max Liebmann took his grandmother, who was French Alsatian, to the Swiss border. But Switzerland did not permit her to enter the country, so she went to Nancy and later to Bordeaux. During the war discrimination increased and culminated in Max Liebmann being sent to Eastern Germany to harvest. He describes himself as one of the first slave laborers of the Reich. In 1940, Max Liebmann started to work for the “Hilfsverein”. On October 21, 1940, the “Hilfsverein” was closed and he was deported to France the next day. On October, 25, Max Liebmann arrived at the camp of Gurs in Southwestern France. He managed to get out of the camp just weeks before its closure on August 1, 1942, and the beginning of the first deportations to Auschwitz. He hid in several places in unoccupied France with the help of local residents. He later managed to escape to Switzerland with the help of a Swiss militia man. In Switzerland, he worked in a refugee camp. On February 28, 1943, his girlfriend Hanne, whom he had met in Gurs, came to Switzerland. She first lived with relatives, but left them on Christmas Eve 1944 when personal frictions became too heavy. Max Liebmann married Hanne on April 14, 1945 in Geneva. Their daughter was born on March 4, 1946. In 1948, the family left for the United States.
    Abstract: Max Liebmann ends his memoir with giving a few remarks on Swiss policy concerning Jewish immigration and also on their policy of blocking them from their money in Swiss bank accounts.

    Abstract: What, in Judaism - a religion so concerned with social norms and public policy - can we possibly mean by "law"? That is the thoroughly fresh perspective with which this work commences. It proceeds with two chapters on Second Temple Judaism, and two on the special subject of the Dead Sea library. Learning withers when criticism is substituted by political consensus, and when other than broadly accepted viewpoints find a hearing only with difficulty, if at all. The editors, therefore, invited colleagues from the USA, Europe, and Israel to systematically outline their views in one account and set it alongside contrary ones. The several participants explain how, in broad and sweeping terms, they see the state of learning in their areas of special interest. The volume provides first an overview, followed by a systematic, critical account of the fading consensus. In a number of accounts, the different perspectives are presented in scholarly debate. Because of the willingness of contending parties to meet one another in a single frame of discourse, the work is able to portray with considerable breadth the presently contending viewpoints concerning the use of Rabbinical literature for historical purposes. Besides this sustained and vigorous debate, precipitated by historical-critical reading of the rabbinical literature, other issues have attracted attention, such as, for example, feminist interests

    Abstract: The authors have asked of the documents of the Dead Sea Library found at Qumran a simple question: how does each participate in a single Judaic religious system? They propose a reading of the Scrolls from the hypothesis that all of them, in one way or another, rest upon one, authoritative, Judaism. Their analysis of the Dead Sea Scrolls describes how diverse writings hold together to make a single coherent statement, to stand for a religious system possessed of integrity and wisdom. This account of the world view of Judaism covers principal questions addressed to any Judaic religious system: the doctrine of God, the Torah, and matters of history, wisdom, and mysticism. When it comes to the way of life, they include the evidence of the material culture of the community as well as practical matters of religious conduct. How the community’s world view comes to realization is suggested by its treatment of the calendar, by its provision of laws that concern women, by questions of cultic and secular purity, by its piety and forms of worship and views of Temple, sacrifice, and the like. Finally, with the community’s definition of ‘Israel’ and of itself in relationship to ‘Israel’, inclusive of Israelites excluded from this ‘Israel’, an account is gained of the theory of who and what is Israel that animates the particular Judaism represented in these writings

    Abstract: Thirteen foremost scholars describe the views of death, life after death, resurrection, and the world-to-come set forth in the literary evidence for late antique Judaism. The volume covers the vie w of Scripture as a whole as against other Israelite writings; distinct parts of Scripture such as Psalms and the Wisdom literature; apocalyptic and the non-apocalyptic pseudepigraphic literature, Philo; Josephus; the Dead Sea Scrolls; earliest Christianity (the Gospels in particular); the Rabbinic sources; the Palestinian Targums to the Pentateuch; and, out of material culture, the inscriptional evidence. The result is both to highlight the range of available perspectives on this important issue and to illuminate a central problem in the study of Judaism in late antiquity, phrased neatly as “One Judaism or many?” Here we place on display indicative components of Judaism in their full diversity, leaving it for readers to determine whether the notion of a single, coherent religion falls under the weight of a mass of documentary contradictions or whether an inner harmony shines forth from a repertoire of largely shared and only superficially-diverse data

    Abstract: What, in Judaism - a religion so concerned with social norms and public policy - can we possibly mean by \'law\'? That is the thoroughly fresh perspective with which this work commences. It proceeds with two chapters on Second Temple Judaism, and two on the special subject of the Dead Sea library. Learning withers when criticism is substituted by political consensus, and when other than broadly accepted viewpoints find a hearing only with difficulty, if at all. The editors, therefore, invited colleagues from the USA, Europe, and the State of Israel to systematically outline their views in one account and set it alongside contrary ones. The several participants explain how, in broad and sweeping terms, they see the state of learning in their areas of special interest. The volume provides first an overview, followed by a systematic, critical account of the fading consensus. In a number of accounts, the different perspectives are presented in scholarly debate. *** Because of the willingness of contending parties to meet one another in a single frame of discourse, the work is able to portray with considerable breadth the presently contending viewpoints concerning the use of Rabbinical literature for historical purposes. *** Besides this sustained and vigorous debate, precipitated by historical-critical reading of the rabbinical literature, other issues have attracted attention, such as, for example, feminist interests

    Abstract: In a memoir written for her daughters, Inge (Irene) Brenner recounts her family’s history, growing up in Berlin with her parents, her maternal grandfather Samuel Oppenheimer and her two sisters, Lony (born 1913) and Marianne (born 1922). She tells of the hardship that befell Jewish families after the Nazis’ rise to power. Her sister Lony left for Paris in 1933 and later worked as a secretary for the Zionist politician Vladimir Jabotinsky. Inge met her future husband Hans (Harold) Brenner in 1937 in Berlin; he was able to immigrate with the help of an American cousin and sent for Inge soon after Kristallnacht. They met in Havana, Cuba, and were married there. He returned to New York while Inge waited for her visa in Cuba, then entered the United States via Miami. Hans and Inge lived in a small apartment in Washington Heights, eventually joined by his parents as well as Inge’s parents and younger sister Marianne. When Lony and her husband Maurice arrived from Paris, they started a small business that employed several members of the family. Hans and Inge had two daughters, Barbara and Jessica; Maurice and Lony had one daughter named Linda. Inge also describes her younger sister’s life in some detail. Marianne, in an ultimately broken marriage with Henry Dreifus, gave birth to her only daughter at the age of 22. Claudia Dreifus was raised until the age of eight by her grandmother, Emma Willdorff, and later by her father and step-mother. Marianne went on to suffer a nervous breakdown, followed by a severe car accident. She spent her final years living in Reno with her second husband Aram Jorjorian. Following a second divorce, Marianne died at age 55.

    Abstract: This collection of systematic Auseinandersetzungen articulates difference and spells out what is at issue. Learning atrophies when political consensus substitutes for criticism, and when other than broadly-accepted viewpoints, approaches, and readings find a hearing only with difficulty, if at all. The editors therefore have invited colleagues systematically to outline their views in an Auseinandersetzung with contrary ones. The several participants explain how, in broad and sweeping terms, they see the state of learning in their areas of special interest. The editors invited leading players in the USA, Europe, and the State of Israel, in the study of ancient Judaism, both in Second Temple Times and after 70 C.E. The work commences with a thoroughly fresh perspective of a theoretical question: what, in a religion so concerned with social norms and public policy, can we possibly mean by \'law\' when we speak of law in Judaism. It then proceeds with two chapters on Second Temple Judaism, and two on the special subject of the Dead Sea library. The two papers in the present part provide an overview of matters and a systematic, critical account of the fading consensus, respectively. The next set of papers ought to stand as the definitive account of the diverse viewpoints on a basic question of method. Because of the willingness of contending parties to meet one another in a single frame of discourse, the work is able to portray with considerable breadth the presently-contending viewpoints concerning the use of Rabbinic literature for historical purposes. Then proceed a number of other accounts of how matters look from the perspective of major participants in scholarly debate. At the same time as the requirements of historical-critical reading of the Rabbinic literature precipitated sustained and vigorous debate, other problems have attracted attention. Among these a critical issue emerges in the hermeneutics to govern the reading of the documents for the purposes of other-than-historical study, feminist interests, for example

    Abstract: The memoir was written after the first trip to Germany in 1996 with his wife Nina. It is a description of this visit and a reflection of the author's feelings towards Germany, and of the Holocaust and its remembrance. His stepfather Henry Levinstein and other family members would never talk about the events. Werner Kleeman was contacted to receive more information on the family roots in Germany--he was a friend of Fred Strauss from World War 2. On the trip, Robert and Nina Strauss went to Weisenbron, Germany, to visit the Jewish cemetery and finding out more about their ancestors. They encounter a woman who tells them about Samson Eichenbronner, Robert Strauss' great grandfather he did not know about. The next stop on the journey is Themar, home to Robert's stepfather Henry Levinstein. They meet a woman who not only knew members from the family, but also witnessed the persecution of Jews in this little town. They also discuss the East German past, since Themar was in former East Germany. To their surprise, people were quite nostalgic about their lives under a communist regime.

    Abstract: Jack Baruch Keil starts his memoir with a brief description of his family's roots in Jaroslav, Poland. His parents had hardly any money, and moved to Berlin in the 1920s, where his father started a business, selling eggs. He was quite successful, even under the severe economic conditions in Berlin. There was also time for young Jack to go on vacations to the Baltic Sea. In 1933, things changed drastically. Nazis devastated his father's store, the eggs were an easy target for causing damage. The family decided to emigrate to Austria where they had relatives, in order to avoid the Nazi threat. His father managed to build up a new business, and young Jack enjoyed the widened family. The memoir also briefly mentioned the political situation in Austria during the 1930s when Austria's governing party suspended the parliament, the Nazis assassinated the chancelor Dollfuss, and when the Nazis annexed Austria in March 1938. Again, the family was persecuted and had to leave. But the family did not even have passports which made it even more complicated to get a visa for emigration. Finally, they all ended up in Belgium, although only his mother had a visa.

    Abstract: The memoirs were written in 1996 at Lisa Seiden's home. The main time covered is her childhood in Vienna and her stay in Bath, England, during the war. Lisa Seiden describes daily life for a child in Vienna--the type of dolls she had, activities on a cold winter day, vaccations on the countryside. In 1938, she was not allowed to go to school anymore. She remembers many details during that time of horros--the anxious expressions in her parents' faces, the constant fear they had while being in the apartment. One day, the Gestapo was looking for her father, Friedrich Leist, but he was warned and did not return home. He had a hise-out and Lisa brought him food. It did not help--a few days later, he was sent to Dachau concentration camp. On December 17, 1938, Lisa and her brother Peter were sent via Kindertransport to England. Since their parents did not get visas for England, they emigrated to Argentine where an uncle lived. Lisa Seiden writes about her time in Englad, her foster parents, schooling, and air raids. In May of 1946, a ship takes Lisa and Peter to their parents in Buenos Aires, Argentine. The memoir includes copies of photographs showing family members, herself, her doll's house, and vaccation trips etc. There also many letters included, as well as bits of Lisa Seiden's brother's (Peter Leist) dairy.

    Abstract: Judaism and Christianity are both religions of history and remembrance and rely on calendars and accurate chronologies to recall and reenact the signal events in their histories. The import of dividing the day and night, of knowing the moment of Sabbath and Lord’s Day, of properly timing Passover and Easter cannot be overstated. Throughout the history of both religions, these issues were central to worship and practice of religion and had far-reaching effects from messianism to prophecy. But their very centrality meant they were issues of controversy and debate. Roger Beckwith looks carefully at the Jewish and Christian records concerning calendar and chronology, compares, contrasts, and challenges rival solutions to these complex questions. His breath of research — from the ancient Near East to Qumran, from Josephus and Philo to the Maccabean writings, and from the points of view of Paul and Jesus to the Fathers of the church — and his focus on the more controversial issues of dating make Calendar and Chronology an essential book for any serious scholar of history, liturgy, worship, and interpretation.

    Abstract: This volume analyzes the understanding of dreams and the corresponding literary forms used by Josephus in his writings. Josephus reports dreams as either auditory message dreams, symbolic visual dreams, or dream image appearances. In this regard he uses the format for auditory and visual dreams found in ancient Near Eastern and biblical texts, while his dream image appearance reports show familiarity with traditional Greek modes of reporting dreams. Close attention is given to the following topics: 1) the development of dream reports in the ancient Near East, the Bible, and the Hellenistic world; 2) Josephus' views on dreams and prophecy; 3) a form-critical assessment of Josephus' dream reports; and 4) an evaluation of Josephan dream reports which exhibit a more complex traditio-historical development

    Abstract: Many studies have portrayed Judaism in Antiquity as sectarian, with a variety of groups all claiming to be The True Israel. Early Christianity is alleged to have begun in this context as one more Jewish sect claiming such authority. However, the second-century Christian Justin Martyr is the first person known to have used the phrase 'the True Israel'. This book examines the uses of the names 'Jew', 'Hebrew' and 'Israel' in the surviving literature - especially the Bible, Dead Sea Scrolls, Philo, Josephus, New Testament and Mishnah - to determine whether this is an adequate or accurate picture. It discusses the associations of each word, as determined by their actual usage and collocations rather than their theoretical origins. It will be of value to scholars of ancient Judaism and early Christianity. This publication has also been published in paperback, please click here for details

    Abstract: These two volumes collect some of the most influential and important scholarly essays by the late Morton Smith (1915-1991), for many years Professor of Ancient History at Columbia University in New York City. Smith was admired and feared for his extraordinary ability to look at familiar texts in unfamiliar ways, to re-open old questions, to pose new questions, and to demolish received truths. He practiced the \'hermeneutics of suspicion\' to devastating effect. His answers are not always convincing but his questions cannot be ignored. The essays of Volume I center on the Hebrew Bible (\'Old Testament\'), Ancient Israel and Ancient Judaism, of Volume II on the Christian Bible (\'New Testament\'), Early Christianity and Ancient Magic. Volume II also contains an assessment of Smith's scholarly achievement and a complete list of his publications

    Abstract: This volume contains a bibliography of the research on the Dead Sea Scrolls published during the last 25 years, and as such it provides scholars with an indispensable tool for further research. Although originally planned as a continuation of B. Jongeling's A Classified Bibliography of the Finds of the Desert of Judah 1958-1969 , the materials are presented in a different way in order to avoid unnecessary duplications of entries. Each bibliographical entry is alphabetically listed in the first part of the book and is provided with an identification number which allows for multiple classifications. The second part offers a sophisticated classification of the materials by themes, topics and key words, but also by manuscript numbers and titles of the compositions as well as by authors

    Abstract: This volume consists of 23 essays that have appeared in 19 different journals and other publications during a period of over 40 years, together with an introduction. The essays deal primarily with the relations between Jews and non-Jews during the period from Alexander the Great to the end of the Roman Empire, in five areas: Josephus; Judaism and Christianity; Latin literature and the Jews; the Romans in Rabbinic literature; and other studies in Hellenistic Judaism. The topics include a programmatic essay comparing Hebraism and Hellenism, pro-Jewish intimations in Apion and in Tacitus, the influence of Josephus on Cotton Mather, Philo's view on music, the relationship between pagan and Christian anti-Semitism, observations on rabbinic reaction to Roman rule, and new light from inscriptions and papyri on Diaspora synagogues

    Abstract: The Jews in Late Ancient Rome focusses on the Jewish community in third and fourth century Rome, and in particular on how this community related to the larger non-Jewish world that surrounded it. The book's point of departure is a refutation of the disputable thesis that Roman Jews lived in complete isolation. The book examines Jewish archaeological remains and Jewish funerary inscriptions from Rome from various angles, and compares them with Pagan and early Christian material and epigraphical remains. In the last part the author concentrates on an enigmatic legal treatise entitled the Collatio , identifying its author and exploring the implications of this identification. This study proposes a new way in which the relationship between Jews and non-Jews in late antiquity can be studied

    Abstract: The Covenant in Judaism and Paul deals with biblical and intertestamental uses of covenant and related rituals, challenging the view that baptism replaces circumcision, since baptism is entry into the new covenant, and showing that ritual boundaries are replaced or redefined since identity has changed. The investigation uses social categories, “identity” as a term that offers an explanation for a group's selfunderstanding and “boundary” as a term for entry rite of affirmation marker. Part A looks at the Old Testament background to aspects of the covenant. Part B examines covenant identity and rituals in Palestinian Judaism as featured in Jubilees, the Temple Scroll, the Damascus Document, and the Community Rule. It includes a brief analysis of the baptism administered by John the Baptist. Part C analyses Paul's views on covenant, circumcision, and baptism against this background

    Abstract: That the Temple Scroll is re-written Torah is recognised, but discussion of how the Torah is used has been hampered by absence of detailed analysis of the Scroll. This volume addresses this lack by careful examination of major portions of the Scroll. Representative portions of each division of the Scroll are analyzed, first to establish precisely which biblical texts are used, and then to show how these texts are placed in relation to each other. From this study, a specific editorial methodology is uncovered. The final chapter summarises the conclusions and discusses implications for wider Qumran studies. This book provides data essential not only to further the discussion on the exegetical methodology of this Scroll, but also for insight into the transition from “inner-biblical” exegesis to rabbinic commentary

    Abstract: Qumran Prayer and Religious Poetry represents the first attempt to undertake a systematic, comprehensive study of the liturgical and poetic texts which were discovered among the Dead Sea Scrolls from Qumran. The collections of prayers, blessings and hymns indicate that fixed prayers were already customary within Judaism during the period of the Second Temple within sectarian circles. In the light of the prayer texts from Qumran the author conducts a systematic study of Jewish prayer beginning with its biblical traditions, through its development during the Second Temple period, and down to rabbinic prayer. By means of comparative literary analysis, the author is able to elucidate the relationship of the Qumran texts to forms and motifs found in parallel text types from various periods and circles within Judaism. This volume provides the reader with tools for a renewed study of the history of prayer in Judaism in the light of new textual evidence from the Second Temple period

    Abstract: These two volumes introduce the sources of Judaism in late antiquity to scholars in adjacent fields, such as the study of the Old and New Testaments, ancient history of Classical Antiquity, earliest Christianity, the ancient Near East, and the history of religion. Here, in two volumes, leading American, Israeli, and European specialists in the history, literature, theology, and archaeology of Judaism offer factual answers to the two questions that the study of any religion in ancient times must raise. The first is, what are the sources — written and in material culture — that inform us about that religion? The second is, how do we understand those sources in the reconstruction of the history of various Judaic systems in antiquity. The chapters set forth in simple statements, intelligible for non-specialists, the facts the sources provide. Because of the nature of the subject and acute interest in it, we also raise some questions particular to the study of Judaism, those dealing with its historical relationship with nascent Christianity in New Testament times. The work forms the starting point for the study of all the principal questions concerning Judaism in late antiquity and sets forth the most current, critical results of scholarship

    Abstract: New Qumran Texts and Studies contains 18 papers from the first meeting of the International Organization for Qumran Studies (Paris, 1992). Seven studies analyse parts of previously unedited texts: 4Q47 (A. Rofé, E.C. Ulrich), 4Q222 (J.C. VanderKam), 4Q265 (J.M. Baumgarten), 4Q286-290 (B. Nitzan), 4Q385ᴮ (D. Dimant), and the Psalm scrolls (P.W. Flint). Some of the other studies discuss various aspects of well known texts: 1QIsaᵃ (J. Cook), The Temple Scroll (L.H. Schiffman, D.D. Swanson), and the Hodayot (L. Vegas Montaner). Yet others cover a range of subjects: the publication process (E. Tov), the wilderness community (G.J. Brooke), the scrolls and the New Testament (J. Kampen, H.-W. Kuhn), computer aided scrolls research (A. Lange), dating (E.-M. Laperrousaz), and wisdom traditions (G.W. Nebe)

    Abstract: This volume contains the papers of a workshop on Jewish epigraphy in antiquity organized at Utrecht University in 1992. Among the participants were collaborators of the Cambridge Jewish Inscriptions Project and of the Tübinger Atlas des Vorderen Orients project. Important aspects of ancient Jewish inscriptions are highlighted in the papers, like the connection between documentary and literary texts. Several papers focus on aspects of the history of Jewish communities in the diaspora. Specialists in Jewish epigraphy will find surveys of parts of the corpus of Jewish inscriptions (curse inscriptions, metrical epitaphs, alphabet-inscriptions) and discussions of some fixed opinions, and Jewish inscriptions are discussed in a wider literary and historical contexts as well

    Abstract: This volume focuses on our present knowledge of pharmaceuticals in the Biblical and Rabbinic world, a subject which has received little attention. Although many aspects of ancient Near Eastern cultural life have been studied thoroughly, no one has dealt with the pharmaceutical knowledge of this period. The essays in this study deal with their themes in different ways. They thus provide the best current information on a particular subject. They also demonstrate various approaches which may prove fruitful for further investigation. References in specialized studies and archeological field work have demonstrated that our knowledge in this area continues to grow. The fragmented and isolated nature of this material has led to it remaining unknown to those interested in the history of medicine, pharmacy, and horticulture. The authors have sought to fill this gap
