5/22/2023 0 Comments The dybbuk by s anskyIn this classic translation by Henry Alsberg and Winifred Katzin, the authentic cadences of the original Yiddish are deftly preserved. The Dybbuk is a masterful play, full of deep-rooted obsessions and dramatic suspense, fascinating for the glimpse it provides of the rich, poetic, and often tragic culture of the Chassidim. During that age of pervasive mysticism, when rabbis became miracle workers and the sinister arts of the Kabbala were fearsomely invoked, it was never doubted that a discontented spirit from the dead could cross the barrier between the "real" and the "other" worlds to enter a living human body. To the Chassidic Jews of eastern Europe, a dybbuk was not a legend or a myth rather it remained a constant and portentous possibility. Ansky, performed in 1920 in Yiddish as Der Dibek and published the following year. Based on Jewish folklore, its dark implications of mysterious, other-worldly forces at work in a quaint and simple village make for gripping, suspenseful theater. The Dybbuk, expressionistic drama in four acts by S. The Dybbuk, regarded as the classic drama of the Yiddish stage, has long frightened yet fascinated audiences throughout the world.

Carreyrou is also consulting on a big-budget movie about Holmes - who will be played by Academy Award-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence - and the rise and fall of Theranos. The Wall Street Journal reporter details in his new book, “Bad Blood,” how he came to discover that Holmes lied about the capabilities of Theranos’ testing devices.
