    Extractions: Isaac Bashevis Singer The crowning moment in Isaac Bashevis Singer's life was when he received the Nobel Prize for literature in 1978. This recognition of Singer's writings also glorified the beauty and power of the Yiddish language. Born in Radzymin, Poland, on July 14, 1904, in a long lineage of rabbis, Singer was one of four children. His parents were Rabbi Pincus Menachem and Bathsheba (Zylberman). Singer's young life in the Jewish shtetls of Poland was steeped in Hassidism. He was educated in the Jewish schools and at one time he was enrolled in a rabbinical seminary. When he was four, his family moved to Warsaw where his father, a Hassidic scholar, established a Beth Din (rabbinical court). In 1917, Singer moved with his mother to his maternal grandmother, who lived in a small town. Here he learned about Jewish life in the shtetl, which would become a topic for his short stories and novels. In the early 1920s, Singer went to Warsaw to join his older brother, Israel Joseph, who was to write such works as The Brothers Ashkenazi and Yoshe Kalb . Singer joined his brother despite the vigorous objections of his parents, who wanted him to become a rabbi. In Warsaw, he obtained a job as a proofreader for a Yiddish literary magazine. Interested in writing, he first tried to do so in Hebrew, but since it was used only for prayer, he switched to Yiddish.

    Extractions: Quand, en 1978, l’Académie de Stockholm a révélé au monde le nom de Isaac Bashevis Singer en lui décernant le prix Nobel de littérature, elle a défini la création de l’écrivain comme «décrivant le monde et la vie des juifs de l’Europe de l’Est tels qu’ils existaient dans des villes et villages, parmi la pauvreté et les persécutions, imprégnés du vrai sens religieux et des cérémonies qui allaient de pair avec la volonté aveugle et les superstitions». Les médias ont renchéri en soutenant que le prix Nobel attribué a Singer honorait l’ouvre d’une âme simple et modeste qui dresse un portrait fidele, beau mais néanmoins tragique, d’une société morale et pieuse, cruellement anéantie par l’Holocauste. Désormais, Singer devint pour tout le monde, ou tout au moins pour sa partie anglophone, un charmant grand-pere, prototype d’un peuple bizarre et naivement logique, dépositaire de ses aphorismes pleins de sagesse. Lui-meme contribuait a renforcer cette image en se comportant en fonction de ce que l’opinion publique attendait de lui : en adoptant les poses d’un vieillard primesautier et un brin lubrique qui distribue a tout-va des sentences «on-ne-peut-plus-juives». Ainsi, a l’annonce du prix Nobel, il aurait dit a sa femme : «De toute façon, prenons notre petit déjeuner. Qu’est-ce que tu crois ? Que de bonheur on cesse de manger ?». Une autre fois, pressé de donner une interprétation de son ouvre, il a répondu : «Questionner un écrivain sur l’interprétation de ses livres, c’est comme si on demandait a une poule quels sont les ingrédients chimiques qu’elle utilise pour pondre ses oufs». Le prix Nobel a, en quelque sorte, scellé son destin : Singer renonçait a la vérité pour devenir un personnage, entrant de plain-pied dans le domaine de la fiction.

    Extractions: Pronunciation Key Singer, Isaac Bashevis , American novelist and short-story writer in the Yiddish language, younger brother of I. J. Singer , b. Poland. He emigrated to the United States in 1935 and worked in New York City as a journalist on the Jewish Daily Forward. In 1943 he became an American citizen. Singer's work, often frankly sexual, draws heavily on Jewish folklore, religion, and mysticism. Though he wrote in Yiddish, he was fluent in English and closely supervised the English translations of his works. In 1978 he won the Nobel Prize in Literature, the first Yiddish-language author to be so honored. Many of his later works treat the loneliness of old age and the sense of alienation produced in Jews by the dissolution of values through assimilation with the Gentile world. His novels include The Family Moskat (tr. 1950), Satan in Goray (tr. 1955), The Manor (tr. 1967), Enemies (tr. 1972), Shasha (tr. 1978), The Penitent (tr. 1983), Scum (tr. 1991), and the posthumously published Shadows on the Hudson (tr. 1997). Singer is also highly regarded for his imaginative, perceptive, and witty short stories. Collections include

    Extractions: OF THE HOLOCAUST. BY NORMAN GREEN T he late Isaac Bashevis Singer used to write in the mornings. Afternoons, he strolled down Upper Broadway. He stopped along the avenue to eat a meatless meal and to feed the birds. He carried bank books and thousands of dollars in his pockets too, in case he needed to flee New York in a hurry. He believed that "It" could happen again. Born into a line of great rabbis said to be so holy they performed miracles, the young man from the shtetl of Radzymin, Poland, rebelled against Jewish law. He worshipped his older brother, secular Yiddish writer Israel Joshua Singer, and followed his path, first to the writer's club in Warsaw, then finally to America. He took his mother's Hebrew name, Bathsheba, and made it his pen name in Yiddish, Bashevis. Fleeing Hitler, Singer arrived in America in 1935 penniless and knowing only one English phrase. Broke, despondent after the unexpected death of his brother here and the loss of his world in the Holocaust in Europe, he wrote nothing for seven years. But he went on to become one of the most prolific literary masters of the modern age. His mission: to make the world of the Jews immortal.

    Extractions: Isaac Bashevis Singer (1904-1991) was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1978. His fantasy novels include The King of the Fields . Artist Uri Shulevitz is a Caldecott Medalist, and illustrated Singer's early book for Young Readers, The Fools of Chelm and Their History Book Stacks: Books by Isaac B. Singer This story was first published in Yiddish in 1969, and was translated into English by the author in 1982 under the title The Golem . In 1996 this Sunburst edition appeared on the scene and recently a copy found its way to the offices of the SF Site, to become the most requested book of the month by our staff of reviewers. A golem, if you've never heard the term, is a magical creature out of Jewish mythology. He's made of clay, and imbued with life through Cabbalistic magic and/or divine intervention to assist the Jewish people in a time of need. This version of the golem myth is presented as a children's story, although it doesn't pull punches. It's more like one of the original blood-and-guts versions of the popular fairy tales. The persecution of the Jews is told bluntly, and the absurdity of the false accusations and sham trials is made obvious to all. But persecution is only one of the many themes here.
