  • Film Essay for “Tevye”
    Tevye By J. Hoberman In summer 1939, actor-director Maurice Schwartz began work on his long-delayed “Tevye,” the film he first proposed in 1936 and had publicly announced in January 1938. Schwartz, who based his film on the stories of leading Yiddish author and playwright Sholom Aleichem, created and starred in a stage play of “Tevye” twenty years before. A $70,000 ex- travaganza, the film was produced by Harry Ziskin, co-owner of the largest kosher restaurant in the Times Square area. After three weeks of rehearsal on the stage of the Yiddish Art Theater, shooting began on a 130-acre potato farm near Jericho, Long Island. On August 23, midway through the shoot, Hitler seized Danzig. A Nazi invasion of Poland seemed imminent. Political tensions and the deterioration of the Euro- pean situation were felt on the set of “Tevye.” Many Maurice Schwartz as Tevye the Dairyman. of those involved in the production had family in Poland; some were anxious to return.

  • Fiddler on the Roof’
    Solihull School Presents 20th - 24th March 2012 Bushell Hall After Tevye leaves, Perchik rejoices his good fortune, admitting to Hodel, “Now I Have Everything.” Confused by the changes taking place in his world, Tevye for the fi rst time asks Golde “Do You Love Me?” Eventually, Hodel’s strong love for Perchik compels her to leave her family and travel “Far from the Home I Love” in order to be with her beloved in Siberia. Chava, the third daughter, secretly begins to see a young Russian gentile, Fyedka. Although Tevye has weathered the unexpected courtships of Tzeitel and Hodel with dignity, he is unable to tolerate this further and more radical defi ance of tradition. Chava’s contemplation of marrying outside of the Jewish faith is a violation of his religious beliefs, and Tevye vehemently forbids her to continue the relationship with Fyedka. When she persists, Tevye, who can bend no farther, banishes her from the family, refusing to acknowledge Chava as his daughter. By this time, the Tsar has ordered that all Jews evacuate their homes, and the village reluctantly begins to pack their belongings. Knowing that she may never see her parents and sisters again, Chava returns briefl y for a fi nal reconciliation, SYNOPSIS explaining that Fyedka and she are also moving away from Anatevka because they cannot remain amongst people who treat others with such callousness. The place is Anatevka, a village in Tsarist Russia. The time is 1905, the eve of the revolution. The musical opens with the Although Golde cannot challenge her husband’s edict to ignore Chava’s overtures, Tzeitel consoles her younger sister by pulling haunting strains of a fi ddler perched precariously on a roof.

Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account. Seller Rating:. His silliness comes across on the screen in other ways - he tries to assert his dictatorial authority to little effect, and on one occasion looks like a toddler having a tantrum instead. Tevye is a stubborn curmudgeon in many ways who will not see his part in his own undoings and yet he evokes sympathy due to his general good outlook, albeit tinged with a la I thoroughly enjoyed this satirical voyage through the lives of two slightly exaggerated Jewish males. Book category Adult Fiction. About this product. This Sholom Aleichem is amazing -- I've read two of his books in the last couple of months and I laughed and cried and learned so much from each of them. Another of the less pleasant, yet historically interesting, notable features of Motl was child characters learning sexism from adults via cumulative remarks. The guy runs a dairy, after all.

  • Tevye the Dairyman a GREAT JEWISH BOOKS TEACHER WORKSHOP RESOURCE KIT
    Tevye the Dairyman A GREAT JEWISH BOOKS TEACHER WORKSHOP RESOURCE KIT Teachers’ Guide This guide accompanies resources that can be found at: http://teachgreatjewishbooks.org/resource-kits/tevye-dairyman. Introduction Sholem Aleichem, the pseudonym of Sholem Rabinovitch (1859-1916), was one of the greatest Jewish writers of modern times, a pioneer of literary fiction in Yiddish who transformed the folk materials and experiences of Eastern European Jews into classics of world literature. His most beloved character, Tevye the Dairyman, became the protagonist of stage and film adaptations, including the Broadway musical and film Fiddler on the Roof, securing his place in popular culture worldwide; even before that, though, Sholem Aleichem's stories featuring Tevye were appreciated as brilliant comic distillations of modern Jewish experience. This kit provides resources with which teachers can introduce their students to the character of Tevye and to the choices that have been made in presenting and performing this character over the years. Subjects Eastern Europe, Fiction, Film, Performance, Yiddish Reading and Background: Several translations of Sholem Aleichem’s Tevye stories are available in paperback, suitably priced for teaching; these include Hillel Halkin’s in Tevye the Dairyman and the Railroad Stories (1987) and Aliza Shevrin’s in Tevye the Dairyman and Motl the Cantor’s Son (2009). A short biographical article on Sholem Aleichem can be found in the YIVO Encyclopedia, while Jeremy Dauber’s The Worlds of Sholem Aleichem (2013) presents a full, appropriately page-turning treatment of the writer’s life and legacy. Alisa Solomon’s Wonder of Wonders: A Cultural History of Fiddler on the Roof (2013) offers a robust, wide-ranging survey of the creation of the musical and its worldwide influence.

  • Rain Gardens
    Rain Gardens A How-To Guide Introduction Rain gardens are landscape features that capture water runoff from your property and manage it onsite before it can enter our streets and waterways. The purpose of a rain garden is to reduce the amount of water entering our sewer system, which is accomplished by capturing runoff from your roof, yard, or parking lot and allowing it to infiltrate into the ground as would occur under natural conditions. In contrast, impervious surfaces such as pavement allow water to rush off the surface, often flowing untreated into our waterways where it can impact our health and aesthetic and recreational appeal of waterways. Rain gardens utilize “native” plants that have adapted to local conditions over thousands of years. This guide will assist you in the process of planting a rain garden. There are many ways to plant a rain garden, but the steps in this guide are designed to ensure your garden functions properly as a buffer to water runoff. By planting a rain garden you are not only beautifying your property and providing a haven for local wildlife, but you are also doing your part to protect your community from flooding and degraded water quality. Landscape comparison + = YES × = NO − = Minimal Rain Garden Common Average Garden Lawn Beautiful plants throughout the year + + × Provides habitat for native wildlife such as butterfly’s + − × Reduces pollution in our waterways + − − Protects our communities from flooding and stream damage + − − Can survive regional weather conditions + × × Increases water infiltration
