  1. Yitzchok Sternhartz

    Yitzchok Sternhartz 1808&ndash 1871 was the second eldest son of Rabbi Nathan of Breslov also known as Reb Noson . He was born in the town of Nemyriv , Ukraine located nine miles 14 km northwest of Bratslav , where his father had become a close disciple of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov . Sternhartz remained close to his father all his life, and was the inspiration for his father s substantial written correspondence during the last 15 years of Reb Noson s life. Biography Sternhartz married at the age of 15 and moved to his bride s home in Cherkasy , Ukraine , located some distance from Breslov. Reb Noson began to write to his son frequently at this time, advising and encouraging him to continue his Torah studies and devotional prayers. However, it soon became apparent that Sternhartz s young bride was ill equipped to deal with married life. Although Sternhartz s father in law desired to keep his son in law and urged him to be patient with her, Reb Noson came to Cherkasy a year later to demand a get bill of divorce . The couple divorced in 1825. Sternhartz remarried in 1826, this time to a woman whose family was opposed to Hasidic Judaism . Though Chanah was a good wife, she often opposed her husband s Hasidic leanings and his adherence to Rebbe Nachman s teachings. Reb Noson once said, Had Yitzchok not already been divorced, I would have forced him to divorce her. But over time, Chanah, like Reb Noson s wife before her, came to support her husband. Sternhartz was a devout, God fearing Jew who earned the respect of others, including the non Jewish Russian authorities in the town of Tulchyn located nine miles 14 km southwest of Bratslav , where he lived with his second wife and family. He was selected to head the local post office, which in those days included the government bank. Both he and his sons after him ran the post office with sterling honesty.

  1. Nachman Chazan

    Nachman Chazan 1813 1884 was a seminal figure in the continuation and growth of Breslov Hasidic dynasty Breslov Hasidism in the mid nineteenth century. The Breslov movement was founded by Rebbe Nachman of Breslov , who died in 1810. Rebbe Nachman s closest disciple, Nathan of Breslov also known as Reb Noson , shaped and shepherded the movement until his own death in 1844. Reb Nachman Chazan, Reb Noson s closest disciple, then assumed leadership of the movement, guaranteeing the existence and growth of the Hasidut for another 40 years. Chazan, whose grandfather was a follower of Rebbe Nachman, was born three years after the Rebbe s death and was named after him. He was orphaned as a child and was raised by his uncle in Tulchyn , Ukraine . There, in 1822, he met Reb Noson as the latter was passing through on his pilgrimage to Israel . Reb Noson made such a deep impression on the 9 year old boy that he decided to be close to him forever. When he grew up, Chazan became Reb Noson s closest disciple. He moved to the town of Bratslav Breslov , where Reb Noson had resided, and lived there for 18 years. Then he moved to Uman, Ukraine , the city in which Rebbe Nachman is buried, and lived there for another 18 years. This latter move shifted the focus of the movement away from the town of Breslov and onto the town of Uman, where it remains focused to this day. Chazan was an extremely modest man whose actions belied his greatness in scholarship and spiritual devotions. He served as the shammes sexton of the Breslover synagogue in Uman and regularly filled the water buckets for the benefit of other worshipers. In recognition of his leadership, however, he was accorded the honor of leading the prayers at the annual Rosh Hashana kibbutz Breslov Rosh Hashana kibbutz in Uman. His family name, Chazan, is derived from his position as chazzan cantor for those services. Chazan s son, Abraham Chazan , became the next leader of the Breslov Hasidim after his father s death in 1884. Publica ...   more details

  1. The Blue Octavo Notebooks

    The Blue Octavo Notebooks sometimes referred to as The Eight Octavo Notebooks is a series of eight notebooks written by Franz Kafka from late 1917 until June 1919. The name was given to them by Max Brod , Kafka s literary executor, to differentiate them from the regular quarto sized notebooks Kafka used as diaries. Along with the octavo notebooks, Brod also found a series of extracts copied out and numbered by Kafka. Brod named this brief selection Reflections on Sin, Suffering, Hope, and the True Way and included it in The Great Wall of China short story collection The Great Wall of China . Publication When Brod published Franz Kafka s Diaries Kafka s diaries in 1948 he decided to omit the octavo notebooks as he considered their contents more philosophical and literary than the regular diaries Kafka kept. The Octavo notebooks were later included in a volume of fragments and uncollected writings published in 1953, along with the numbered extracts. The notebooks first appeared in English language English in Dearest Father. Stories and Other Writings Schocken Books , 1954 . Some English printings removed the extracts from their original place in the notebooks to avoid repetition. The Blue Octavo Notebooks were published in English in a single volume edition by Exact Change 1991, ISBN 1 878972 04 9 . This edition includes the complete notebooks, the numbered extracts, and Max Brod s original notes.
