{"product_id":"what-must-be-forgotten-yael-chaver-9780815630500","title":"What Must Be Forgotten: The Survival of Yiddish in Zionist Palestine","description":"\u003cp\u003eAs Zionism took root in Palestine, European Yiddish was employed within a dominant Hebrew context. A complex relationship between cultural politics and Jewish writing ensued that paved the way for modern Israeli culture. This enlightening volume reveals a previously unrecognized, alternative literature that flourished vigorously without legitimacy. Significant examples discussed include ethnically ambiguous fiction of Zalmen Brokhes, minority-oriented works of Avrom Rivess, and culturally pluralistic poetry by Rikuda Potash. The remote locales of these writers, coupled with the exuberant expressiveness of Yiddish, led to unique perceptions of Zionist endeavors in the Yishuv. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUsing rare archival material and personal interviews, What Must Be Forgotten unearths dimensions largely neglected in mainstream books on Yiddish and\/or Hebrew studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yael Chaver\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0815630506\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780815630500\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Syracuse University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 238\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.48h x 5.80w x 0.86d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2005 pg. 1397","brand":"Yael Chaver","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44059854897407,"sku":"9780815630500","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2956f0c7-ca08-4ecb-924e-5cdb96ef99c0.jpg?v=1685060712","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/what-must-be-forgotten-yael-chaver-9780815630500","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
