Happy birthday to Sholem Aleichem, the father of modern Yiddish literature! Born in 1859, he brought Eastern European Jewish life to the world with humor, heart, and resilience. His stories, especially Tevye the Dairyman, inspired Fiddler on the Roof and continue to shape Jewish culture today. Over 100,000 people attended his funeral in 1916—a testament to his impact. His words still remind us that even in hardship, there’s room for laughter and hope. #SholemAleichem #Yiddish #JewishHistory #Fid

In 1899, Sholem Aleichem introduced the world to Kasrilevke - a fictional shtetl full of Yiddish-speaking Jews whose humor and resilience turned even the harshest trials into stories of hope. In our first English lecture of the season, discover how Sholem Aleichem transformed the Dreyfus Affair – a moment of global antisemitism – into comedy, making Kasrilevke not just a town of fools, but a collective comic hero.
