Sinopsi

?Ghetto Tragedies? is a 1899 novel by British author Israel Zangwill. Contents include: ?They That Walk In Darkness?, ?Transitional?, ?Noah?s Ark?, ?The Land Of Promise?, ?To Die In Jerusalem?, ?Bethulah?, ?The Keeper Of Conscience?, etc. Zangwill (1864?1926) was a leading figure in cultural Zionism during the 19th century, as well as close friend of father of modern political Zionism, Theodor Herzl. In later life, he renounced the seeking of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. A notable portion of Zangwill?s work concentrated on ghetto life and earned him the nickname 'the Dickens of the Ghetto'. Other notable works by this author include: ?Dreamers of the Ghetto? (1898), ?Grandchildren of the Ghetto? (1892 ), and ?Children of the Ghetto: A Study of a Peculiar People? (1892).This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with an introductory chapter from ?English Humourists of To-Day? by J. A. Hammerton.
