B. YEHOSHUA, CHAIM POTOK, AND CHOCHANA BOUKHOBZA A Dissertation in Comparative Literature by Nathan P. Devir © 2010 Nathan P. Devir Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2010 The dissertation of Nathan P. Devir was reviewed and approved* by the following: Thomas O. Beebee Distinguished Professor of Comparative Literature and German Dissertation Advisor Co-Chair of Committee Daniel Walden Professor Emeritus of American Studies, English, and Comparative Literature Co-Chair of Committee Baruch Halpern Chaiken Family Chair in Jewish Studies; Professor of Ancient History, Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies, and Religious Studies Kathryn Hume Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of English Gila Safran Naveh Professor of Judaic Studies and Comparative Literature, University of Cincinnati Special Member Caroline D. Eckhardt Head, Department of Comparative Literature; Director, School of Languages and Literatures *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT A defining characteristic of secular Jewish literatures since the Haskalah, or the movement toward “Jewish Enlightenment” that began around the end of the eighteenth century, is the reliance upon the archetypal aspects of the Judaic tradition, together with a propensity for intertextual pastiche and dialogue with the sacred texts. Indeed, from the revival of the Hebrew language at the end of the nineteenth century and all throughout the defining events of the last one hundred years, the trend of the textually sacrosanct appearing as a persistent motif in Judaic cultural production has only increased.

    CHAGALLTH AND THE CIRCLE OF JEWISH PAINTERS OF THE 20 CENTURY WALLY FINDLAY GALLERIES M ARC C HAGALL (1887 - 1985) MARC CHAGALL was born July 7, 1887, in Vitebsk, Russia. From 1907 to 1910, he studied in St. Petersburg at the Imperial Society for the Protection of the Arts and later with Leon Bakst. In 1910 he moved to Paris, where he was associated with Guillaume Apollinaire and Robert Delaunay and encountered Fauvism and Cubism. He participated in the Salon des Indépendants and the Salon d’Automne in 1912 and held his first solo show in 1914 at Der Sturm Gallery in Berlin. Chagall visited Russia in 1914 and was prevented from returning to Paris by the outbreak of the war. He settled in Vitebsk where he was appointed Commissar for Art in 1918. He founded the Vitebsk Popular Art School and directed it until his resignation in 1920. He moved to Moscow and executed his first stage designs for the State Jewish Chamber Theater. He returned to Paris in 1923 and his first retrospective took place in 1924 at the Galerie Barbazanges-Hodebert, Paris. In 1933, the Kunsthalle Basel held a major retrospective of his work. During World War II, Chagall fled to the United States. The Museum of Modern Art, New York, gave him a retrospective in 1946. He settled permanently in France in 1948 and exhibited in Paris, Amsterdam and London. During 1951, he visited Israel and executed his first sculptures. During the 1960s, Chagall continued to travel widely, often in association with large- scale commissions he received.

  • The Jerusalem Post the Mystery of Chagall's
    FORT GANSEVOORT The Mystery of Chagall's Stolen Painting Has Been Solved And Is Now For Sale. Mark Chagall is the world's most important Jewish artist. By AMITAI HAZAN JANUARY 6, 2020 (photo credit: JAIME EDELSTEIN) Mark Chagall's painting, ‘ Jacob's Ladder’, was stolen from a gallery in Tel Aviv in 1996 and completely disappeared. Three years ago, the painting was discovered in the estate of a lady who passed away in Jerusalem, leading to a legal battle between her heirs and the insurance company which paid compensation for the painting 25 years ago. Now the important and controversial painting is at the center of an important auction of Israeli and international art to be held in Herzliya at the end of the month. In addition to Chagall's painting, a rare painting by Reuven Rubin from 1924 and intriguing paintings by prominent Israeli artists are on sale. 5 NINTH AVENUE, NEW YORK, 10014 | [email protected] | (917) 639-3113 FORT GANSEVOORT Mark Chagall is the world's most important Jewish artist. He worked in France with Pablo Picasso, at the beginning of the last century, and his paintings are sold for millions of dollars. Chagall's naïve - surrealist paintings, were often characterized by Jewish motifs, and one of the most important of them is ‘Jacob’s Ladder’, a painting which he created in several versions from the 1950s to the 1970s. One of these paintings was stolen from a gallery in Tel Aviv in 1996. The thief was not caught, the painting disappeared, and the insurance company had to pay compensation to the owner of the work.
