But within the borders of Israel, a fascinating culture was (and continues to be) created in many languages other than Hebrew, reflecting its reality from angles that the makers of Hebrew-Israeli culture did not know and all too often lacked the tools to express. \n\u003cbr\u003e I Am Your Dust: Representations of the Israeli Experience in Yiddish Prose, 1948-1967 expands the boundaries of current studies of Israel's cultural history by presenting and analyzing Yiddish-Israeli prose written during the country's first two decades as an independent state. It offers a comprehensive study of that unique, and hitherto little understood, literature, a detailed historical documentation of the contexts of its production, and an eye-opening comparison of its themes to the more familiar outputs of Hebrew-Israeli prose. \n\u003cbr\u003e I Am Your Dust is the first socioliterary investigation of Yiddish-Israeli culture, and it explores how Yiddish-Israeli writers played a vital role in shaping the country's cultural identity in its early years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Indiana University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48667517223147,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":146.49,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780253071507-1.jpg?v=1781613919","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9780253071507","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
