Description: Title: Yiddish Folktales Author: Weinreich, Beatrice Publisher: Schocken Books Inc Binding: Paperback Pages: 448 Dimensions: 9.17h x 6.14w x 1.23d Product Weight: 1.37 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9780805210903 Filled with princesses and witches, dybbuks and wonder-working rebbes, the two hundred tales that make up this delightful compendium were gathered during the 1920s and 1930s by ethnographers in the small towns and villages of Eastern Europe. Collected from people of all walks of life, they include parables and allegories about life, luck, and wisdom; tales of magic and wonder; poignant encounters between rabbis and their disciples; and stories whose only purpose is to entertain. Long after the culture that produced them tragically disappeared, these enchanting Yiddish folktales continue to work their magic today.
