Reseña del libro "A Light for Others and Other Jewish Tales From Galicia. (Studies in Austrian Literature, Culture, and Thought. Translation Series) (en Inglés)"
Leopold von Sacher-Masoch (1836-1895), the author of Venus in Furs, is known for his tales of dominant women and suffering men, if indeed he is remembered at all today. But in his own lifetime he was also famous as the author of vibrant tales from Galicia, the exotic eastern edge of the Austrian empire, where he championed the cause of the region's most oppressed minorities, the Ruthenians and the Jews. This collection focuses on some of his better-known Jewish tales. Sacher-Masoch's unusual ability to capture the essence of a person or place with a telling detail brings this vanished world of Galician Jewry back to life in all its splendor and all its squalor, mixing the grays, browns, and blacks of European Realism with the bright, sparkling colors of legend, myth, fairy tale, and tradition. Long forgotten in the German and English-speaking countries, his work is currently enjoying a modest revival among scholars and general readers alike.
