Excerpt from Songs From the Ghetto: With Prose Translation, Glossary, and Introduction by L. Wiener Mr. Rosenfeld was born in 1862 in a small town in Poland, where his ancestors had been fishermen. He has received no other education than that which is allotted to all Jewish boys of humble origin. While well read in German and English literature, he masters only his native Yiddish. He went early to England, to avoid military service, and there learned the tailor's trade. Thence he proceeded to Holland where he tried himself at diamond grinding. He very soon after came to America, where for many weary years he has eked out an existence in the sweat-shops of New York. It is there he has learned to sing of misery and oppression. His health gave out, and he had to abandon the shop for the pre carious occupation of a Yiddish penny-a-liner. In the meantime he has developed judeo-german ver sification to unknown proportions. Of the merits of his poetry let the reader judge himself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
