Kirkus ReviewsSet in Ukraine and Crimea, this unique autobiography offers a fascinating, detailed picture of life in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Tsarist Russia. Goldenshteyn (1848-1930), a traditional Jew who was orphaned as a young boy and became a shochet (kosher slaughter) as a young man, is a master storyteller. Folksy, funny, streetwise, and self-confident, he is a keen observer of nineteenth-century Eastern Europe, both Jewish and non-Jewish. His accounts are vivid and readable, sometimes stunning in their intensity.The memoir is brimming with information. Goldenshteyns adventures shed light on communal life, persecution, family relationships, religious practices and beliefs, social classes, local politics, interactions between Jews and other religious communities (including Muslims, who formed the majority of Crimeas populace), epidemics, poverty, competition for resources, migration, war, modernity and secularization, holy men and charlatans, acts of kindness and acts of treachery. In chronicling his own life, Goldenshteyn inadvertently tells a bigger storythe story of how a small, oppressed people, among other minority groups, struggled for survival in the massive Russian Empire.Until now, only a small circle of Yiddish-speaking scholars had access to this extremely significant primary source. This translation is a game-changer, making the treasure trove of information contained in these pages accessible to academics and ordinary readers alike. Informed by research in Ukrainian, Israeli, and American archives and personal interviews with the few surviving individuals who knew Goldenshteyn personally, The Shochet is a magnificent new contribution to Jewish and Eastern European history....4588586The Shochet (Vol. 1)460484https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-shochet-9798887193021/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4397856/image.jpg?v=638459472652270000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20249798887193021_W3siaWQiOiI5OGNiODI1Ny0yM2E2LTRmYWMtOGU5NS1lYTY2ZmU5ODc2YWIiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjUxMywiZGlzY291bnQiOjI2LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjQ4NywiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDYtMDRUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwidG8iOiIyMDI1LTA2LTMwVDIzOjU5OjU5WiIsInJlZ2lvbiI6Ik1YIiwiaXNQcmVvcmRlciI6ZmFsc2V9LHsiaWQiOiIzZTQyYTIxZC03MTk5LTQ5YmEtYThhMy01OGNhMjk0NDdjNTgiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQ4NCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjI0LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjQ2MCwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDctMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9798887193021_<ul><li>This book is conceivably the first time that a halachically-informed Jew offers a full picture of his life with the trials, tribulations, and difficulties that he encountered. It also describes the difficulties that rabbis and other Jewish religious professionals, particularly those who were impoverished, experienced in dealings with their communities.</li><li>It is one of the earliest pre-Zionist descriptions of Jewish life in Ukraine in a world before the word antisemitism began to be used as a descriptive term.</li><li>The events in this book take place in Ukraine of the nineteenth century and is tremendously informative in understanding this currently beleaguered part of the word. The author describes something which is remarkably useful in understanding todays conflict by contrasting Ukraine and Crimea.</li></ul>...(*_*)9798887193021_An impressively researched and surprisingly accessible portrait of Jewish life in the mid-19th century.
