Description
“Hochma” means “wisdom” in Hebrew.
More than two thousand examples wisdom can be found in this book. It collects and comments on anecdotes, stories, sayings and jokes – in a word, hochmas, which for centuries was told and retold by European Jews – to each other in Yiddish, and the rest as they have to. Something, of course, you know, but – check and see! – Not all.
Collected and commented on all these hochmas Zalcia Landman, a native of Galicia, a citizen of Switzerland, a well-known expert on the history of the Jews, the Yiddish language and, above all, on Jewish wit.
