Abraham Cahan In the history of our people's sojourn in America, many Jewish authors have been recognized by their Gentile counterparts as literary equals. Indeed, by the middle decades of the twentieth century, American-Jewish intellectuals with the names of Alfred Kazin, Leslie Fiedler, Henry Roth, Delmore Schwartz, Saul Bellow, Bernard Malamud, and others had clearly become primi inter pares ("first among equals"). Today, so accepted is the Jew in the society of American letters, the singling out of an "American-Jewish" author seems unnecessary, out-date, even obsolete. And yet, there was a definite beginning to this process of acculturation, which included the translation of a Yiddish heritage to the kultur of America. That translation may be traced, both literally and symbolically, to the person of Abraham Cahan (1860-1951). Cahan, a typical Eastern European immigrant fleeing the Russian pogroms of 1881, was to the newly arrived Jew in America what Shmuel Agnon was to the masses who settled in Palestine/Israel. A journalist, an editor, an author, a socialist leader, Cahan quickly assumed the literary leadership of a Jewish community brimming with intellectual fervor and social discontent. His first book, Yekl, A Tale of the New York Ghetto (1896), was praised by William Dean Howells as the harbinger of a "new New York." Having achieved distinction among the literati, Cahan would continue his furious and pointed penmanship. This culminated in two directions: as editor of the Yiddish paper, the Forward, and as author of a number of novels.

Internet Research Guide Textbook Site for: The Heath Anthology of American Literature , Fifth Edition Paul Lauter, General Editor Abraham Cahan Abraham Cahan has been described as the single most influential personality in the cultural life of well over two million Jewish immigrants and their families during his lifetime. As a journalist and writer, his unique ability to mediate among the various sensibilities and languages of the Lower East Side in New York City placed him at the center of American Jewish culture and Jewish writing. His major fictional works, Yekl (1896) and The Rise of David Levinsky (1917), are widely recognized as classic accounts of the immigrant experience of Americanization. Born in Podberezy, Russia, Cahan was educated at traditional Jewish cheders and also studied at the Vilna Teachers Institute, a Russian government school for Jewish teachers. After graduating in 1881, he began teaching and at the same time became deeply involved in radical, underground anti-czarist activities. Forced to flee, he joined a group of immigrants bound for America and arrived in Philadelphia on June 5, 1882. The next day he reached New York, where his religious training proved useless and secular success beckoned. In 1890 he became editor of the weekly Arbeiter Zeitung

Cahan, Abraham, 1860-1951. Imported bridegroom. Abstract: Rereading literary histories from the vantage point of the Lower East Side foregrounds the unacknowledged power of immigrant culture-makers and of Yiddishkeit institutions as a shaping force in the creation of an American cultural response to the challenges of modernity. Abraham Cahan's short fiction in English limns the paradox for the immigrant intellectual whose engagements with "native" culture are both socially transformative and invisible. In these texts, we can read an allegory of the Yiddish-language intellectual, laboring at the birth of alternative modernisms, in a history of mutual borrowings that has never been fully translated or recorded. Lerner, L. Scott.

Ethos at the Crossroads of Disciplines: Rhetoric, Pragmatics, Sociology [Access article in HTML] [Access article in PDF] Subjects: Ethos (The Greek word) Oratory. Pragmatics. Abstract: Examining the rhetorical notion of ethos at the crossroads of disciplines, this article builds up an integrated model attempting to reconcile Bourdieu's theory of language and power with pragmatic views of illocutionary force. For the sociologist, the authority of the orator depends on his institutional position; for Ducrot or Maingueneau, drawing on Aristotle, the image of the orator is built by the discourse itself. Analyzing political as well as literary texts, this essay takes into account the institutional position of the speaker; his "prior ethos" (the image his audience has of him before he takes the floor); the distribution of roles inherent in the selected genre and the stereotypes attached to these roles; and the verbal strategies through which the speaker builds an image of self in his discourse. "Argumentative analysis" thus explores a dynamic process in which social, institutional, and linguistic elements are closely connected. Chatman, Seymour Benjamin, 1928-
