{"value"=>"<p>Subject correspondence files contain correspondence and related documents such as articles, book proposals, near-print and printed material, notes, and photographs. Some correspondence of Daphne Patai, dating after her father's death, is included.</p> <p>The file labeled \"Graves-Patai\" contains letters between Beryl Graves, William Graves and Raphael Patai concerning the publication of <span class=\"title\">Hebrew Myths</span> and the Graves-Patai letters. There are also several letters from David Street, written from Baghdad, Iraq in 1946 and 1947, about the lives of the Jewish population there. These letters appear to have provided source material for Patai's book <span class=\"title\">The Jewish Race</span>. The letters are accompanied by approximately fifty black and white snapshot photographs of resident Jews and the environment in and around Baghdad.</p> <p>Files on several of Patai's publications can be found here, including <span class=\"title\">Apprentice in Budapest</span>, <span class=\"title\">Hebrew Myths</span>, <span class=\"title\">Jadid Al Islam: The Jewish \"New Muslims\" of Meshhed</span>, <span class=\"title\">The Jewish Mind</span>, <span class=\"title\">Journeyman in Jerusalem</span>, and <span class=\"title\">The Middle Gate</span>. Patai's Princeton University files contain correspondence on <span class=\"title\">The Jewish Alchemists</span> and <span class=\"title\">Jewish Seafaring in Ancient Times</span>.</p>"}
