But he also reclaims for his own persecuted generation of Holocaust survivors the talmudic sage's experience of oppression and the wisdom that steered a path through it. In Wiesel's universe of historical study, the Jewish past gives direction to the Jewish present (and future), while the Jewish present-particularly the lengthy shadows cast by the Holocaust-orients our approach to the past, dictates the questions we ask of it, and shows our profound relationship to those who inhabited it. 410 0$aJewish literature and culture. 606 $aJewish literature 615 0$aJewish literature. 676 $a813/.54 701 $aKatz$b Steven T.$f1944-$0153897 701 $aRosen$b Alan$f1954-$012157 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779660803321 996 $aElie Wiesel$93698514 997 $aUNINA
