Paper Summary:
This paper briefly examines these two short Yiddish stories in order to understand the basic message that each one is trying to portray, which is what can happen when a normally isolated Jewish community comes in contact with Christian influences. The characters, storyline, and setting of each story is addressed.From the Paper:
"At the end of the story as Meyerl's father is declaring such a heart-wrenching prayer, the reader knows that this family is ruined forever. Their house is laid waste. Never again shall the father be without shame and anger; and never again will his mother be able to smile, even if she and the baby continue to live. The memory of that time when the Jews and Christians came in contact with one another will be in their nightmares until the day they die."More papers on Yiddish Stories:
