Recovering "Yiddishland: Threshold Moments in American Literature - Judaic Traditions in Literature, Music, and Art
Merle L. Bachman
According to traditional narratives of immigrant assimilation, Jews freely surrendered Yiddish language and culture in their desire for an American identity. This book offers a challenge to this conventional literary history, returning readers to a threshold where Americanization also meant ambivalence and resistance.
