Apprentice in Budapest : Memories of a World That Is No More

See all formats and editions

This frank autobiography covers the first twenty-two years of the life of Raphael Patai, famous anthropologist and biblical scholar.

Patai shares meticulously researched genealogical narratives and historical and sociological observations, mixed freely-and with engaging frankness-with portions of an intensely personal and intimate nature.

He paints a critical yet affectionate picture of Hungarian Jewry in the years preceding 1933-a world that is no more.
