Also included were impassioned essays by Lewando and by a physician about the benefits of vegetarianism.

Original dramas, comedies, musicals, and vaudeville, along with sophisticated productions of Shakespeare, Ibsen, and Chekhov, were innovatively staged for crowds that rivaled the audiences on Broadway. Though these productions were in Yiddish and catered to Eastern European, Jewish audiences (the largest immigrant group in the city at the time), their artistic innovations, energetic style, and engagement with politics and the world around them came to influence all facets of the American stage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVividly illustrated and with essays from leading historians and critics, this book recounts the heyday of \"Yiddish Broadway\" and its vital contribution to American Jewish life and crossover to the broader American culture. These performances grappled with Jewish nationalism, labor relations, women's rights, religious observance, acculturation, and assimilation. They reflected a range of genres, from tear-jerkers to experimental theater. The artists who came of age in this world include Stella Adler, Eddie Cantor, Jerry Lewis, Sophie Tucker, Mel Brooks, and Joan Rivers. The story of New York's Yiddish theater is a tale of creativity and legacy and of immigrants who, in the process of becoming Americans, had an enormous impact on the country's cultural and artistic development.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note this book has limited availability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eItems ship in 3-5 business days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"YIVO Institute for Jewish Research","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43270219497690,"sku":"","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/4587\/3370\/products\/NY_Yid_theater_399x_786a588e-712b-41a1-9742-c9db3a8dbf55.jpg?v=1663797306"},{"product_id":"the-yivo-encyclopedia-of-jews-in-eastern-europe","title":"The YIVO Encyclopedia of Jews in Eastern Europe","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGershon David Hundert, Editor in Chief\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYale University Press in cooperation with \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe YIVO Institute for Jewish Research\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublished in 2008\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2 volumes, 2,448 pages, 8.5 x 10.88 in\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eHardcover\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unprecedented reference work systematically represents the history and culture of Eastern European Jews from their first settlement in the region to the present day.

The mere existence of these stories is itself a remarkable feat as the collection was published in July 1939, just before the Nazis invaded Poland and two weeks before Blankshteyn’s death. Anita Norich’s introduction argues that this is not a work of Holocaust literature (there are no death camps, partisans or survivors of WWII), but anti-Semitism is palpable, as is the threat of war and its aftermath. What could it have felt like to live under these conditions?

As if presaging what was to come, World War I and Russian civil wars are the backdrops to these stories, as Jews and non-Jews find themselves under German occupation or caught up in the revolutionary fervor that promised them much and took away almost everything. The young women in Blankshteyn’s stories insist on their independence, on equality with their lovers, and on meaningful work. Like the men in the stories, they study, work, and yearn for love. The situations in which these characters find themselves may be unfamiliar to a contemporary reader, but their reactions to the turmoil, the frighteningly changing times, and the desire for love and self-expression are deeply resonant with today’s audience.

From its headquarters in Vilna, Lithuania, YIVO tried to balance scholarly objectivity with its commitment to the Jewish masses. Using newly recovered documents that were believed destroyed by Hitler and Stalin, Cecile Esther Kuznitz tells for the first time the compelling story of how these scholars built a world-renowned institution despite dire poverty and anti-Semitism. She raises new questions about the relationship between Jewish cultural and political work and analyzes how nationalism arises outside of state power.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWatch YIVO's\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/uH3nAzZZgHM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ebook talk\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ewith Cecile Kuznitz about this title!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePlease note this book has limited availability.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eItems ship in 3-5 business days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"YIVO Institute for Jewish Research","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43488824066266,"sku":"","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/4587\/3370\/products\/YIVOandtheMakingofModernJewishCulture.jpg?v=1668626335"},{"product_id":"college-yiddish","title":"College Yiddish","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBy\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUriel Weinreich\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eFiftieth Anniversary Edition\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublished in 2011 by the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research\u003cbr\u003eOriginally published in 1949\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e400 pages, 6 x 9 in\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePlease note this book has limited availability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eItems ship in 3-5 business days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"YIVO Institute for Jewish Research","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43492487528666,"sku":"","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/4587\/3370\/products\/CollegeYiddish.jpg?v=1668722424"},{"product_id":"yiddish-paris-staging-nation-and-community-in-interwar-france","title":"Yiddish Paris: Staging Nation and Community in Interwar France","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBy Nick Underwood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIndiana University Press\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublished in 2022\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e266 pages, 8.5 x 5.5 in\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYiddish Paris\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eexplores how Yiddish-speaking emigrants from Eastern Europe in Paris in the 1920s and 1930s created a Yiddish diaspora nation in Western Europe and how they presented that nation to themselves and to others in France.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this meticulously researched and first full-length study of interwar Yiddish culture in France, author Nicholas Underwood argues that the emergence of a Yiddish Paris was depended on \"culture makers,\" mostly left-wing Jews from Socialist and Communist backgrounds who created cultural and scholarly organizations and institutions, including the French branch of YIVO (a research institution focused on East European Jews), theater troupes, choruses, and a pavilion at the Paris World's Fair of 1937.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYiddish Paris\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eexamines how these left-wing Yiddish-speaking Jews insisted that even in France, a country known for demanding the assimilation of immigrant and minority groups, they could remain a distinct group, part of a transnational Yiddish-speaking Jewish nation.

It is a tale of heroism and resistance, of friendship and romance, and of unwavering devotion—including the readiness to risk one’s life—to literature and art. And it is entirely true. Based on Jewish, German, and Soviet documents, including diaries, letters, memoirs, and the author’s interviews with several of the story’s participants, The Book Smugglers chronicles the daring activities of a group of poets turned partisans and scholars turned smugglers in Vilna, “The Jerusalem of Lithuania.” The rescuers were pitted against Johannes Pohl, a Nazi “expert” on the Jews, who had been dispatched to Vilna by the Nazi looting agency, Einsatzstab Reichsleiter Rosenberg, to organize the seizure of the city’s great collections of Jewish books. Pohl and his Einsatzstab staff planned to ship the most valuable materials to Germany and incinerate the rest. The Germans used forty ghetto inmates as slave-laborers to sort, select, pack, and transport the materials, either to Germany or to nearby paper mills. This group, nicknamed “the Paper Brigade,” and informally led by poet Shmerke Kaczerginski, a garrulous, street-smart adventurer and master of deception, smuggled thousands of books and manuscripts past German guards. If caught, the men would have faced death by firing squad at Ponar, the mass-murder site outside of Vilna. To store the rescued manuscripts, poet Abraham Sutzkever helped build an underground book-bunker sixty feet beneath the Vilna ghetto. Kaczerginski smuggled weapons as well, using the group’s worksite, the former building of the Yiddish Scientific Institute, to purchase arms for the ghetto’s secret partisan organization. All the while, both men wrote poetry that was recited and sung by the fast-dwindling population of ghetto inhabitants. With the Soviet “liberation” of Vilna (now known as Vilnius), the Paper Brigade thought themselves and their precious cultural treasures saved—only to learn that their new masters were no more welcoming toward Jewish culture than the old, and the books must now be smuggled out of the USSR. Thoroughly researched by the foremost scholar of the Vilna Ghetto—a writer of exceptional daring, style, and reach—The Book Smugglers is an epic story of human heroism, a little-known tale from the blackest days of the war.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWatch YIVO's \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZkR-Rp4MVuQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eprogram\u003c\/a\u003e about this title!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePlease note this book has limited availability.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eItems ship in 3-5 business days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"YIVO Institute for Jewish Research","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43543429808346,"sku":"","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/4587\/3370\/products\/9781512600490.jpg?v=1670275795"},{"product_id":"embers-plucked-from-the-fire-the-rescue-of-jewish-cultural-treasures-in-vilna","title":"Embers Plucked from the Fire: The Rescue of Jewish Cultural Treasures in Vilna","description":"\u003cp\u003eBy David E.

These pieces, written between 1974 and 2016, are all representative of a method Biale calls \"counter-history\": \"the discovery of vital forces precisely in what others considered marginal, disreputable and irrational.\" The themes that have preoccupied Biale throughout the course of his distinguished career—in particular power, sexuality, blood, and secular Jewish thought—span the periods of the Bible, late antiquity, and the Middle Ages to the twentieth century. Exemplary essays in this volume argue for the dialectical relationship between modernity and its precursors in the older tradition, working together to \"brush history against the grain\" in order to provide a sweeping look at the history of the Jewish people.

Laimonas Briedis has woven their letters, diaries, utterances, and reflections of Vilnius into a compelling and intimate story, and shares with the reader a deep understanding of the Lithuanian, Polish, Russian, and German identities of the place, as well as its centrality in European Jewish culture.

Her aunt Mollie, a formidable and cultured woman, insisted that Meryl never forget who they were, where they came from, and the hate that nearly destroyed them. Over long afternoons, Mollie told her about the city, the theater, and, above all else, Meryl’s cousin, the radiant Franya Winter. Franya was the leading light of Vilna’s Yiddish theater, a remarkable and precocious woman who cast off the restrictions of her Hasidic family and community to play roles as prostitutes and bellhops, lovers and nuns. Yet there was one thing her aunt Mollie would never tell Meryl: how Franya died. Before Mollie passed away, she gave Meryl a Yiddish book containing the terrible answer, but forbade her to read it.

Meryl’s search reveals a lost world destroyed by hatred, illuminating the cultural haven of Vilna and its resistance during World War II. As she seeks to find her lost family legacy, Meryl looks for answers to the questions that have defined her life: what is our duty to the past?

As the rector of the University of Freiburg in the early 1930s, he worked hard to reshape the university in accordance with National Socialist policies. He also engaged in an all-out struggle to become the movement’s philosophical preceptor, “to lead the leader.” Yet for years, Heidegger’s defenders have tried to separate his political beliefs from his philosophical doctrines. They argued, in effect, that he was good at philosophy but bad at politics. But with the 2014 publication of Heidegger’s \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eBlack Notebooks\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, it has become clear that he embraced a far more radical vision of the conservative revolution than previously suspected. His dissatisfaction with National Socialism, it turns out, was mainly that it did not go far enough. The notebooks show that far from being separated from Nazism, Heidegger’s philosophy was suffused with it. In this book Richard Wolin explores what the notebooks mean for our understanding of arguably the most important philosopher of the twentieth century, and of his ideas—and why his legacy remains radically compromised.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWatch \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_N7yIDdcVzs\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eYIVO's book talk\u003c\/a\u003e with Richard Wolin about this title.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePlease note this book has limited availability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eItems ship in 3-5 business days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"YIVO Institute for Jewish Research","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43735057826010,"sku":"","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/4587\/3370\/products\/HeideggerinRuins.jpg?v=1677268708"},{"product_id":"modern-english-yiddish-yiddish-english-dictionary","title":"Modern English-Yiddish \/ Yiddish-English Dictionary","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBy Uriel Weinreich\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublished in 1968 by the McGraw-Hill Book Company\u003cbr\u003eReprinted by the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research in 2012\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e856 pages, 6 x 9 in\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDr. Uriel Weinreich’s \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eModern English-Yiddish Yiddish-English Dictionary\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e has been praised by both scholars and Yiddish writers for its completeness, its remarkable insight into the meanings of Yiddish words and expressions, and its precise presentation of Yiddish grammar and pronunciation.

But this book is not about the success stories. It's a paean to the bunglers, the blockheads, and the just plain weird—Jews who were flung from small, impoverished eastern European towns into the urban shtetls of New York and Warsaw, where, as they say in Yiddish, their bread landed butter side down in the dirt. These marginal Jews may have found their way into the history books far less frequently than their more socially upstanding neighbors, but there's one place you can find them in force: in the Yiddish newspapers that had their heyday from the 1880s to the 1930s. Disaster, misery, and misfortune: you will find no better chronicle of the daily ignominies of urban Jewish life than in the pages of the Yiddish press.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn underground history of downwardly mobile Jews, \u003ci\u003eBad Rabbi\u003c\/i\u003e exposes the seamy underbelly of pre-WWII New York and Warsaw, the two major centers of Yiddish culture in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. With true stories plucked from the pages of the Yiddish papers, Eddy Portnoy introduces us to the drunks, thieves, murderers, wrestlers, poets, and beauty queens whose misadventures were immortalized in print. There's the Polish rabbi blackmailed by an American widow, mass brawls at weddings and funerals, a psychic who specialized in locating missing husbands, and violent gangs of Jewish mothers on the prowl—in short, not quite the Jews you'd expect. One part Isaac Bashevis Singer, one part Jerry Springer, this irreverent, unvarnished, and frequently hilarious compendium of stories provides a window into an unknown Yiddish world that was.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWatch YIVO's \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=k7qXEP3JuA8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=PL_EkIOpaQU\"\u003ebook talk\u003c\/a\u003e with Eddy Portnoy about this title!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePlease note this book has limited availability.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eItems ship in 3-5 business days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"YIVO Institute for Jewish Research","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43781306908890,"sku":"","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/4587\/3370\/products\/BadRabbi.jpg?v=1678391033"},{"product_id":"yiddish-astronomy-poster-18-x-24","title":"Yiddish Astronomy Poster - 18'' x 24''","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFeaturing an image from \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGeografisher atlas \u003c\/i\u003e[Geographic Atlas], from the YIVO Library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e18”W x 24”H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that posters ship separately from other items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eItems ship in 3-5 business \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-markjs=\"true\" class=\"markzgpyownef\" data-ogac=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogsb=\"\"\u003edays.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"YIVO Institute for Jewish Research","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43807275581658,"sku":"","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/4587\/3370\/products\/AstronomyPoster18x24_web_new2.jpg?v=1679516600"},{"product_id":"dictionary-of-words-of-hebrew-and-aramaic-origin-in-yiddish","title":"Dictionary of Words of Hebrew and Aramaic Origin in Yiddish","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBy \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eYitskhok Niborski with contributions from Simon Neuberg, Eliezer Niborski, and Natalia Krynicka\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBibliothèque Medem\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublished in 2012\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e512 pages, 6 x 8.25 in\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePaperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eDictionary of Words of Hebrew and Aramaic Origin in Yiddish\u003c\/em\u003e contains around 9,000 entries, making it the largest work devoted to words of this type.
