The Golden Treasure Trove of the Russian Museum

1998 y.
Publisher: Palace Editions
Description: `Eight hundred years ago, in Kiev, a master goldsmith admired for the last time the wondrous necklace that he had only just forged, intended to adorn the neck of a Kievian beauty now lost in the mists of time, before handing it over to its customer. A century and a half later the precious adornment was hidden in the rampart of the St Michael Gold-Topped Monastery, beyond which the wild cries of the Mongol hordes could already be heard. It lay there for some six hundred and fifty years, awaiting modern archaeologists, before finding its way into the museum. Now the work of the Russian master delights us with its unearthly beauty and masterful talent. Such was the fate, in short, of just one of the more than two hundred works on show at the current exhibition. Each of them has their own fates, seen their own events and dramas. Take for example the golden grivna, an amulet called to preserve the life and then the eternal rest of Prince Vladimir Monomakh. How it didЕ [detailed...]

Rabbi Loew creates a Golem to defend the Jews, but this Golem seems more interested in listening to the Rebbetsin`s stories and falling in love with the Rabbi`s daughter. Is he the reincarnated spirit of her murdered lover? Or does his childlike facade hide the face of a demon? In THE LIVING METHUSELAH , the world`s oldest man has lived through the Flood, the Plague, Sodom and Gomorrah, Pompeii, and his own extremely poor judgment, thanks to his wife Serach, the world`s oldest woman.

The Golem: A New Translation of the Classic Play and Selected Short Stories

2006 y.
Publisher: Ч
Description: In this collection of fictional writings, the Golem of Jewish folklore is both hero and villain. The Golem, a creature made of clay and brought to life by Rabbi Leyb of Prague in the sixteenth century, has provided an enticing subject for fiction writers since the legend began. In some works, Rabbi Leyb gives birth to the Golem to help the Jews with the overbearing burden of their work. In others, the Golem is the protector of the Jews, keeping watch during the nights before Passover to make sure that a Gentile does not plant evidence for a blood libel in a Jewish home. But the powerful Golem can also lose control and have to be destroyed. Joachim Neugroschel has brought together some of the best work featuring the Golem, including H. Leivick`s masterful blank verse play, Yudl Rosenberg`s `pamphlet` full of Golem tales, and stories by S. Bastomski, Dovid Frishman, and Y. L. Peretz, which he translates fluidly from the Yiddish.

From this meeting grows an incredible web of experiences, set within the twisted crumbling walls and dark passages of the Ghetto around the turn of the century. Strange mystical visions, wonderful transformations, lurking terrors and perplexing revelations come into being around the twin personalities of Pernath and the Golem, against a background of hatred and frustrated love, malice and cabalistic saintliness.
