Beskrivelse af Ghetto Comedies
Ghetto Comedies is a collection of short stories written by Israel Zangwill, published in 1907. The book is a humorous portrayal of Jewish life in the ghettos of London during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The stories are filled with witty dialogue, colorful characters, and satirical observations of the social and cultural norms of the time. The book is divided into four parts, each containing several stories that explore different aspects of Jewish life, including marriage, family, religion, and social class. Zangwill's writing style is engaging and entertaining, with a keen eye for detail and a sharp sense of humor. Overall, Ghetto Comedies is a charming and insightful look at a bygone era of Jewish history, and a testament to the enduring power of humor to transcend cultural boundaries.1907. Simultaneously with the publication of these Ghetto Comedies, a fresh edition of Zangwill's Ghetto Tragedies was issued. In the old definition a comedy could be distinguished from a tragedy by its happy ending. Dante's Hell and Purgatory could thus appertain to a comedy. This is a crude conception of the distinction between tragedy and comedy, which Zangwill ventured to disregard, particularly in the last of these otherwise unassuming stories situated in the London Ghetto.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
