9.2.23 | New excellent review by Vassili Schedrin about the book "The Yiddish Stage..."
"Dzigan and Shumacher's performances offered an intangible alternative to the regnant cultural and linguistic order- ultimately becoming a lasting framework for at least one form of collective Jewish identity in the modern age. With his thorough discussion of the wider context of the duo's history and art, Rotman makes a major contribution to the historiography of Yiddish theater. The Yiddish Stage as a Temporary Home is likely to become an indispensable resource for academics working in the larger fields of cultural, theater, and Jewish studies."
