About The Book

“An anthology of Yiddish folk tales that never before have been available in English, Radiant Days, Haunted Nights reveals the enormous breadth and depth of Yiddish folk literature, from its roots to its full blossoming in the modern era.” “Standing at the intersection of the spoken folk tale and the European tradition of printed literature, the Yiddish folk literature collected in this volume provides a fascinating glimpse into four centuries of Jewish cultural life. The collection includes not only original tales, but Yiddish retellings of biblical stories, and unexpected examples of cultural osmosis, such as a Yiddish version of an Arthurian legend.” The work compiled in Radiant Days, Haunted Nights paints a portrait of the cherished continuity — and remarkable diversity — of Jewish culture expressed through Yiddish folk literature.
