Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Israel Zangwill's 'The King of Schnorrers: Grotesques and Fantasies' is an enthralling collection of satirical tales set in the Jewish community of 19th century England. Zangwill's literary style is characterized by its witty humor and keen observations of society, making this book a unique and insightful look into the cultural norms and stereotypes of the time. Through a series of whimsical and fantastical stories, Zangwill explores themes of identity, assimilation, and social commentary, all while delighting readers with his clever storytelling and rich character development. The book's blend of humor and social criticism makes it a captivating read for anyone interested in Victorian literature and Jewish cultural studies. Israel Zangwill was a prolific writer and playwright known for his works' exploration of Jewish identity and the immigrant experience. His background as a Jewish immigrant himself likely influenced his writing, giving him a deep understanding of the themes he explores in 'The King of Schnorrers'. I highly recommend this book to readers interested in historical fiction, Jewish literature, or social satire. Zangwill's sharp wit and insightful commentary make for an engaging and thought-provoking read.

Download or read book Studies in Victorian and Modern Literature written by William Baker and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-07-29 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is both a celebration of the life and career of the eminent literary scholar, critic, and journalist John Sutherland and an extension of Sutherland’s work in various fields, including nineteenth- and twentieth-century Anglo-American literature, the publishing industry, and its impact upon creativity and literary puzzles. With contributions from over twenty-five distinguished critics, literary journalists and scholars, this book goes beyond merely describing Sutherland’s work. The essayists pay homage to Sutherland while also staking their own critical/scholarly claims. From investigating the publishing dimension, Victorians major and minor, the complexities of Dickens and George Eliot, the “archeology” of Pride and Prejudice to examining the implications of Shakespearean souvenirs, literary puzzles, and Non-Victorians, the essays offer fresh dimensions to Sutherland’s rich career as a professor, critic, and journalist.
Download or read book A Jew in the Public Arena written by Meri-Jane Rochelson and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2010-02-19 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After winning an international audience with his novel Children of the Ghetto, Israel Zangwill went on to write numerous short stories, four additional novels, and several plays, including The Melting Pot. Author Meri-Jane Rochelson, a noted expert on Zangwill’s work, examines his career from its beginnings in the 1890s to the performance of his last play, We Moderns, in 1924, to trace how Zangwill became the best-known Jewish writer in Britain and America and a leading spokesperson on Jewish affairs throughout the world. In A Jew in the Public Arena, Rochelson examines Zangwill’s published writings alongside a wealth of primary materials, including letters, diaries, manuscripts, press cuttings, and other items in the vast Zangwill files of the Central Zionist Archives, to demonstrate why an understanding of Israel Zangwill’s career is essential to understanding the era that so significantly shaped the modern Jewish experience. Once he achieved fame as an author and playwright, Israel Zangwill became a prominent public activist for the leading social causes of the twentieth century, including women’s suffrage, peace, Zionism, and the Jewish territorialist movement and rescue efforts. Rochelson shows how Zangwill’s activism and much of his literary output were grounded in a universalist vision of Judaism and a commitment to educate the world about Jews as a way of combating antisemitism. Still, Zangwill’s position in favor of creating a homeland for the Jews wherever one could be found (in contrast to mainstream Zionism’s focus on Palestine) and his apparent advocacy of assimilation in his play The Melting Pot made him an increasingly controversial figure. By the middle of the twentieth century his reputation had fallen into decline, and his work is unknown to many modern readers. A Jew in the Public Arena looks at Zangwill’s literary and political activities in the context of their time, to make clear why he held such a place of importance in turn-of-the-century literary and political culture and why his life and work are significant today. Jewish studies scholars as well as students and teachers of late Victorian to Modernist British literature and culture will appreciate this insightful look at Israel Zangwill.
