Im Spannungsfeld zwischen Geschichte, Literatur und personlichen Erlebnissen bietet das Buch einen sowohl nostalgischen als auch kritischen und unterhaltsamen Blick zuruck in die verlorene Welt des sudost- und osteuropaischen Judentums.
With its 37 short chapters, “Romania: History, Literary Criticism, Memories” offers an overview of Jewish life and culture in Romania from the end of the 19th century until shortly after the Second World War. The focus of Schlojme Bickel’s late work is on Yiddish-language cultural work in the 1920s and 1930s in the newly formed interwar “Greater Romania”. At the heart of the book are 47 biographical portraits of important personalities of this epoch. It also covers places and key moments in Romanian-Jewish history. Last but not least, it cites and discusses prose and poetry excerpts, most of which have never before been translated into German. This unique compendium provides a vivid picture of Jewish and, in particular, Yiddish-speaking Eastern Europe before the Holocaust.
