Despite its reputation, the book has not been fully translated into English until now. Written by Yehiel Yeshaia Trunk, a prominent Polish Jewish writer, Poyln is a colourful epic, a moving testimony, and an important primary historical source that presents a portrait of Polish Jewry against the backdrop of the Nazi genocide.The undisputed hero of the story is the national community of Polish Jews. To portray this community, Trunk creates a rich gallery of characters - Hassidic patricians, timber merchants, rich landowners, brilliant Talmudists, Orthodox rabbis, and Hasidic tsadikim. He also depicts ordinary village and small-town Jews, artisans, shopkeepers, workers, and Luftmenschen, all of them members of one extended family. Particularly valuable aspects of Poyln are its examination of different trends in the Hasidic movement and the author's attempt to bridge the gap between his secular generation and its religious ancestors. In short, Trunk's work aims to show Jewishness as a way of life.This is the first instalment of a multi-volume edition of Poyln, the first English translation to be published. Here begins a story of the beauty and pathos of the world of Polish Jewry, a world that was almost totally destroyed by the Nazis.JewsPolandHistoryJewsPolandSocial life and customsAuthors, YiddishBiographyHasidimPolandElectronic books.JewsHistory.JewsSocial life and customs.Authors, YiddishHasidim305.8924047Trunk Yeḥiel Yeshaia1887-1961,900645Clarke AnnaShapiro Robert MosesWróbel Piotr J.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456379703321Poyln2012507UNINA01249nam 2200421 450 991079358960332120200520144314.00-522-86236-5(CKB)4100000007759100(MiAaPQ)EBC5718401(Au-PeEL)EBL5718401(OCoLC)1089003886(EXLCZ)99410000000775910020190308d2013 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierFamily law and Australian Muslim women /edited by Helen McCue & Abdullah SaeedCarlton, Victoria :Melbourne University Press,2013.1 online resource (151 pages)0-522-86235-7 Includes bibliographical references and index.Domestic relationsAustraliaMuslim womenAustraliaDomestic relationsMuslim women346.94015Saeed AbdullahMcCue HelenMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910793589603321Family law and Australian Muslim women3745038UNINA
