____________________________________________________________
To minimize wear and tear on the untershames, three requests:

1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance.
2. Send material as plain text:  no HTML, other coding, or attachments.
3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has
posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames.

From: Jerold C. Frakes <jcfrakes at buffalo.edu>
Subject: Early Yiddish Texts

The nine-hundred-page anthology of Old and Middle Yiddish texts that I 
edited a few years ago [_Early Yiddish Texts, 1100-1750_, Oxford 
University Press, 2004], which, with the collapse of the dollar at that 
time, retailed for over $300 for the hardcover, has now been reissued in 
paperback (official date of release is 27 November), with the cover 
images, frontispiece, and some other printing errors corrected, at a much 
more plausible price of $37.

Best,
J. Frakes
