Excerpt from Nine Yiddish Writers: Critical Appreciations In the assembling and publication in book-form of these appreciations of Yiddish writers by Harry Rogoff there is an appropriateness that is especially marked at this time: the old gods of Yiddish writing are securely enthroned, the new are yet enshrouded in uncertainty. At such a time it is well to turn back these interesting pages of Yiddish literary history in America. Random though these notations may be, they are peep-holes through which the observant eye may gather some estimate of the scope and liveliness of that literary activity which engaged the lover of Yiddish literature a decade or two ago. In these pages, taken out of the short-lived journal "East And West, " of which Mr. Rogoff was the editor, the student no less than the casual reader may find instruction as well as pleasure.
