By contrast, this collection of essays by leading Yiddish scholars seeks to recover the authentic voice and vision of the writer known to his Yiddish readers as Yitskhok Bashevis. The essays are grouped around four themes:
-- The Yiddish language and the Yiddish cultural experience in Bashevis's writings
-- Thematic approaches to the study of Bashevis's literature
-- Bashevis's interface with other times and cultures
-- Interpretations of Bashevis's autobiographical writings
A special feature of this volume is the inclusion of Joseph Sherman's new, faithful translation of a chapter from Bashevis's Yiddish "underworld" novel Yarme and Keyle.
