Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dream of Queen Esther: A Biblical Drama in Three Acts Mordecai is a noble captive Jew living in the Persian city of Shushan. He is loved by all and dwells with his slave Meesha Zabeel and his adopted daughter, Esther. Hegai comes to him and informs him that the King is about to choose a wife from among the maidens of the kingdom and that Esther has been selected to present herself for the contest. Mordecai thinks that if Esther be chosen Queen she may help her people, who are the captives of the King. The King, in disguise, has saved the life of Esther and she cherishes a high regard for the unknown hero and therefore hesitates before presenting herself before the King, as she loves the man who saved her life, not knowing that it was the King himself. Mordecai tells her to enter the contest for the sake of her people and Esther hesitates between love and duty. She sleeps and has a vision! Eight heroines of biblical history appear to her and tender her their advice. The first act closes with several beautiful tableaux, a scarf drill. The second act is in the palace of the King. The King tells his chamberlain, Hegai, that he saved the life of a little unknown maiden and that he hopes she will be one of the contestants. The King retires and several Maidens enter for the contest. Each thinks that she will be the chosen Queen to the comical delight of Koosh, a little Ethiopian handmaiden, who attends the^ contestants. One by one the maidens are rejected until Esther appears. The King recognizes her and she is chosen Queen to the delight of Koosh. A Flower Drill and Song occurs in this act and the act ends with a tableau: The Crowning of Esther. The third act of the play takes place nine years after the second act.

Book excerpt: "Esther" by Sonia Daugherty is a straightforward religious melodrama but with spiritual appeal and purpose and characters that really seem to live and project each his life story wholesomely on the actors. The Esther story, perhaps the most dramatic in the whole Old Testament, has ever lent itself readily to drama and is always a vast favorite with the playwright. Mrs. Daugherty has managed to instill into the Esther of her play a fine modern expression of the love for fellowman and the thrill of service nobly done. Esther is fair and frail and pathetic as she trembles hesitantly across the courtyard in the presence of the king -- and the sacrifice seems really one of nobility of purpose to save her fellow-men. It is, again, the individual to save the race. The drama will offer an outstanding theme -- it is instinct with situation and it can be quite impressively yet simply set. There is no question of its appeal and its power to hold and sway the attention of the audience. While capable of simple and inexpensive production, the Persian setting will offer unlimited opportunity to the director who wishes to elaborate more fully. Beauty of word and of thought, impressiveness yet simplicity of setting -- unlimited opportunity for costuming, this new old play with a modern message will be a delight to all church groups. - Mrs. A. Starr Best - Preface.

Book excerpt: A new approach to thinking about the representation of the Other in Western society, The Jew’s Daughter: A Cultural History of a Conversion Narrative offers an insight into the gendered difference of the Jew. Focusing on a popular narrative of “The Jew’s Daughter,” which has been overlooked in conventional studies of European anti-Semitism, this innovative study looks at canonical and neglected texts which have constructed racialized and sexualized images that persist today in the media and popular culture. The book goes back before Shylock and Jessica in TheMerchant of Venice and Isaac and Rebecca in Ivanhoe to seek the answers to why the Jewish father is always wicked and ugly, while his daughter is invariably desirable and open to conversion. The story unfolds in fascinating transformations, reflecting changing ideological and social discourses about gender, sexuality, religion, and nation that expose shifting perceptions of inclusion and exclusion of the Other. Unlike previous studies of the theme of the Jewess in separate literatures, Sicher provides a comparative perspective on the transnational circulation of texts in the historical context of the perception of both Jews and women as marginal or outcasts in society. The book draws on examples from the arts, history, literature, folklore, and theology to draw a complex picture of the dynamics of Jewish-Christian relations in England, France, Germany, and Eastern Europe from 1100 to 2017. In addition, the responses of Jewish authors illustrate a dialogue that has not always led to mutual understanding. This ground-breaking work will provoke questions about the history and present state of prejudiced attitudes in our society.
