In this celebratory volume, edited by four of her former students, Wisse’s colleagues take as a starting point her award-winning book \u003ci\u003eThe Modern Jewish Canon\u003c\/i\u003e (2000) and explore an array of topics that touch on aspects of Yiddish, Hebrew, Israeli, American, European, and Holocaust literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eArguing the Modern Jewish Canon\u003c\/i\u003e brings together writers both seasoned and young, from both within and beyond the academy, to reflect the diversity of Wisse’s areas of expertise and reading audiences. The volume also includes a translation of one of the first modern texts on the question of Jewish literature, penned in 1888 by Sholem Aleichem, as well as a comprehensive bibliography of Wisse’s scholarship.
