What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Paris un Viena is an adaptation into rhymed Yiddish stanzas of a popular chivalric romance well known in Italy in the sixteenth century. The author makes virtuoso use of the lively Yiddish spoken in Italy at the time, while expunging the most obviously Christian motifs in the story. Based on a complete copy of the book printed in Verona in 1594, Shmeruk's edition is accompanied by all the captioned illustrations as they appear in the original. The Introduction and Appendices discuss the book's unique characteristics, its style and language, and the issue of the author's identity.
