Agnon

Asch

Nobel Prize Winner S. Y. Ag-
non gained fame with his Ha;idic
themes in his novels and short
stories. Two decades before he had
gained world fame he acquired
recognition with his novel "The
Bridal Canopy." In a translation
from the Hebrew by I. M. Lask,
this notable work gained the role
of a classic with its dramatic in-
terpretation of Hasidism's influ-
ences and the passions, dedications
to faith and fears of the satanic
that affected their ranks.
Schocken Books,- having under-
taken to republish all of Agnon's
previous works as well as issuing
his new ones, has just published
"The Bridal Canopy" as a paper-
back, having issued the book
anew as a bard cover volume sev-
eral months ago.

Muir, "Salvation" traces Jewish
experiences in Poland in the era
that followed Napoleon's retreat
from Russia.
In his foreword to the second
edition, written in 1951, Asch
wrote that errors in the first text
were corrected and that this edi-
tion contains the proper interpre-
tations of Jewish rituals and
teachings. He called attention to
the fact that the priginal title of
his novel was-"The Psalm Jew",
that it possesses similar titles in
languages which possess equiva-
lent terms and that in English
"'Salvation'' expresses the charac-
ter and idea of the book in a word
that is common ground for Jew.
