Description

Product Description This book presents a study of Yiddish in the Cold War through the ideological confrontations between Communist Yiddish literati in the Soviet Union, United States, Canada, Poland, France and Israel. It discusses the intellectual environments of the Moscow literary journal Sovetish Heymland. Review A carefully researched monograph about a hitherto hidden corner of Yiddish culture during a period of contraction.--Zachary M. Baker "Shofar: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Jewish Studies, 28.4, Summer 2010, 190-92 " This meticulously researched book is the first comprehensive English-language study of Yiddish in the Communist world after the murder of Soviet Yiddish writers on 12 August 1952. Estraikh s story more or less begins where everyone else s ends. For this alone, Estraikh s book is an important corrective to our understanding of Yiddish in general, and Soviet Yiddish culture in particular. Just because Stalin said he d killed off Yiddish culture didn t make it so... Full of amazing research.--David Shneer "East European Jewish Affairs, 39.3, December 2009, 401 413 "" Yiddish in the Cold War tells an important story in the history of twentieth-century Yiddish. The book s focus on the internal machinations of the editorial boards of Communist Yiddish periodicals, though, cuts short any broader observations about the Cold War per se... One hopes that Estraikh s new work will stimulate more research into Yiddish culture in the postwar Soviet Union.--Jeffrey Veidlinger "The Russian Review, 69.1, January 2009, 173-74 "" About the Author Gennady Estraikh
