“They Took to the Sea”

The sea and maritime spaces have long been neglected in the field of Jewish studies despite their relevance in the context of Jewish religious texts and historical narratives. The images of Noah’s arche, king Salomon’s maritime activities or the miracle of the parting of the Red Sea immediately come into mind, however, only illustrate a few aspects of Jewish maritime activities. Consequently, the relations of Jews and the sea has to be seen in a much broader spatial and temporal framework in order to understand the overall importance of maritime spaces in Jewish history and culture. Almost sixty years after Samuel Tolkowsky’s pivotal study on maritime Jewish history and culture and the...

»Die Welt möge Zeuge sein«

Dovid Bergelson, 1882 in Ochrimowo in der heutigen Ukraine geboren, prägte über vier Jahrzehnte die moderne jiddische Literatur. Ob in Kiew, Berlin, New York oder Moskau – Bergelsons literarische Stimme wurde gehört. Er gilt als Erneuerer der jiddischen Prosa zwischen Moderne und Sozialistischem Realismus, bis mit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg und der versuchten Judenvernichtung Bergelsons Schreiben schließlich eine neue, existenzielle Dimension erreichte. Am 12. August 1952 wurde Dovid Bergelson in der sogenannten »Nacht der ermordeten Dichter« in Moskau hingerichtet. Der vorliegende Band versammelt erstmalig ausgewählte Prosa sowie einen Dramenausschnitt aus Dovid Bergelsons umfänglichem Schaffen. Ergänzt sind die Texte um einen Anmerkungsapparat, ein Glossar und ein ausführliches Nachwort zum Leben und Werk Dovid Bergelsons.
