Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Small 4to, 18, 344. First EDITION. Germans interspersed with Hebrew. The author discusses the Indian origin of the story of Job. He notes parallels to the Hindu legend of King Haricandra who was tested by the gods and thereby lost his family and wealth, only to have them restored once he made appropriate amends. Nork's source was the Jesuit priest Jean-Venant Bouchet who spent much time in Southern India. On title, zodiac of Twelve Tribes of Israel. Foxed, few tears slightly affecting text. Half-calf boards, rubbed, binding repair. Good Condition. (Spec-12-3).
