This novel portrays the difficulties encountered by traditionalist Jews coming to terms with the social changes that rocked Poland in the late 19th century. The central figure of the novel is Calman Jacoby, who stands between the old and the new, unable to embrace either whole-heartedly. - Isaac Bashevis Singer (November 21, 1902 (see notes below) July 24, 1991) was a Jewish American author noted for his short stories. He was one of the leading figures in the Yiddish literary movement, and received the Nobel Prize in literature in 1978. . Literary influences: Singer had many literary influences; besides the religious texts he studied there were the folktales he grew up with and worldly Yiddish detective-stories about "Max Spitzkopf" and his assistant "Fuchs"; there was Dostoyevsky, whose Crime and Punishment he read when he was fourteen; and he writes about the importance of the Yiddish translations donated in book-crates from America, which he studied as a teenager in Bilgoraj: "I read everything: Stories, novels, plays, essays I read Rejsen, Strindberg, Don Kaplanowitsch, Turgenev, Tolstoy, Maupassant and Chekhov." He studied many philosophers, among them Spinoza., Arthur Schopenhauer, and Otto Weininger. Among his Yiddish contemporaries Singer himself considered his older brother to be his greatest artistic example; he was a life-long friend and admirer of the author and poet Aaron Zeitlin. Of his non-Yiddish-contemporaries he was strongly influenced by the writings of Knut Hamsun, many of whose works he later translated, while he had more critical attitude towards Thomas Mann, whose approach to writing he considered opposed to his own. Contrary to Hamsun's approach, Singer shaped his world not only with the egos of his characters, but also using the moral commitments of the Jewish tradition that he grew up with and that his father embodies in the stories about his youth. This led to the dichotomy between the life his heroes lead and the life they feel they should lead - which gives his art a modernity his predecessors do not evince. His themes of witchcraft, mystery and legend draw on traditional sources, but they are contrasted with a modern and ironic consciousness. They are also concerned with the bizarre and the grotesque. Another important strand of his art is intra-familial strife - which he experienced firsthand when taking refuge with his mother and younger brother at his uncles home in Bilgoraj. This is the central theme in Singer's big family chronicles - like The Family Moskat (1950), The Manor (1967), and The Estate (1969). Some are reminded by them of Thomas Mann's novel Buddenbrooks; Singer had translated Mann's Der Zauberberg (The Magic Mountain) into Yiddish as a young writer. Language: Singer always wrote and published in Yiddish almost all of it in newspapers and then edited his novels and stories for their American versions, which became the basis for all other translations; he referred to the English version as his "second original". This has led to an ongoing controversy whereby the "real Singer" can be found in the Yiddish original, with its finely tuned language and sometimes rambling construction, or in the more tightly edited American version, where the language is usually simpler and more direct. Many of Singer's stories and novels have not yet been translated. In the short story form, in which many critics feel he made his most lasting contributions, his greatest influences were Chekhov and Maupassant. From Maupassant, Singer developed a finely grained sense of drama. Like the French master, Singer's stories can pack enormous visceral excitement in the space of a few pages. From Chekhov, Singer developed his ability to draw characters of enormous complexity and dignity in the briefest of spaces. In the foreword to his personally selected volume of his finest short stories he describes the two aforementioned writers as the greatest masters of the short story form. . .

Condizione: Gut. Deutsche Erstausgabe. 471 (1) Seiten. 20,8 cm. Schutzumschlag: Klaus Detjen. Guter Zustand. Schutzumschlag mit Randläsuren und kleinen Einrissen. Kopfschnitt leicht fleckig. Nach dem mißlungenen Aufstand polnischer Adliger gegen das Zarenreich im Jahre 1863 wird Kalman Jacobi, ein frommer jüdischer Getreidehändler, Pächter auf dem enteigneten Landgut des nach Sibirien verbannten Grafen Jampolski. Er bringt es rasch zu Reichtum und Ansehen, und es geht nicht nur ihm gut, sondern der ganzen jüdischen Gemeinde in Jampol. Doch die beginnende Industrialisierung bedroht die traditionellen Lebensformen der polnischen Juden. Auch Kalman Jacobi gerät mit seiner Familie in den Sog der neuen Zeit . »Das Schicksal all dieser so verschiedenartigen Personen gibt Singer reichlich Möglichkeit, vor dem Leser ein breit angelegtes Panorama des jüdischen und polnischen Lebens im ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert aufzurollen: chassidisches Milieu mit all den Intrigen am >Hof< des Wunderrabbi; nationalistisch entflammte, aber auch positivistisch-nüchterne Polen; Juden, die versuchen, die Glaubensbande zu lockern .; Sozialismus in verschiedensten Nuancen and Varianten. Vor allem aber, wie immer bei Singer: ungemein lebendige Figuren, die man, wie sonst nur bei Tolstoj, nicht als erfunden, sondern als völlig real empfindet.« (Die Welt). - Isaac Bashevis Singer (auch: Isaak Baschewis Singer; Pseudonyme, die er neben Bashevis zeitweilig verwendete, waren Varshavsky oder D. Segal; * 21. November 1902 in Leoncin, Polen; 24. Juli 1991 in Surfside, Miami-Dade County, Florida) war ein polnisch-US-amerikanischer jiddischer Schriftsteller. Als erster und einziger jiddischer Schriftsteller erhielt er im Jahr 1978 den Nobelpreis für Literatur. . Singers Werk steht im Spannungsfeld zwischen Religion und Moderne, Mystizismus und rationaler Einsicht. Charakteristisch ist aber auch die tiefe Verbundenheit mit der jüdischen Mystik (Kabbala), der talmudischen Ethik, Tradition und Folklore sowie eine große naturwissenschaftliche Bildung und Vertrautheit mit der Philosophie vor allem mit Spinoza, Schopenhauer, Eduard von Hartmann und Otto Weininger. Sein wichtigstes schriftstellerisches Vorbild war Knut Hamsun, den er mehrmals ins Jiddische übersetzt hat. 1974 verfilmte ein Wohnungsnachbar, Bruce Davidson, Mr. Singer's Nightmare or Mrs. Pupkos Beard" (Herr Singers Albtraum oder Frau Pupkos Bart) als halbstündige Mischung aus Spiel- und Dokumentarfilm (Drehbuch und Hauptdarsteller Isaac Bashevis Singer). 1983 wurde die Kurzgeschichte Yentl, the Yeshiva Boy" mit Barbra Streisand in der Hauptrolle als Yentl verfilmt; dem Film stand Singer allerdings sehr kritisch gegenüber. Die Vorlage für einen Film bildete 1989 auch der Roman Enemies" (Feinde); Regisseur war Paul Mazursky. 2007 verband der deutsche Regisseur Jan Schütte drei Kurzgeschichten Singers zu einem Spielfilm mit dem Titel Love Comes Lately mit Otto Tausig in der Hauptrolle. Dieser Film lief auf mehreren Festivals und kam im April 2009 unter dem Titel Bis später, Max! in die deutschen Kinos. . . . Aus wikipedia-Isaac_Bashevis_Singer.
