"All Dreams Follow The Mouth": The Dream-Interpreter As Prophet, Ken Frieden
Religion - All Scholarship
Freud's "talking cure" and methods of dream interpretation have occasionally
been understood in the context of Jewish traditions, yet the nature
of this association remains a matter of dispute} Without making any
claims concerning influence or continuity, this essay attends to some resonances
between Talmudic, Freudian, and Lacanian thought, which no
doubt merit a full-length study.

Religion - All Scholarship
During the 1930's, as a young Yiddish poet in New York, Yehuda
Leyb Teller produced some of the memorab1e pre-war poetry of his generation.

accomp1ishments, fuses real and imaginary dimensions. Two

Intertextual And Interlinguistic Approaches To Agnon's Writing, Ken Frieden
Religion - All Scholarship
While previous critics have raised the question of outside
influences upon Agnon, his fiction has seldom been read in
connection with contemporary views of intertextuality. Agnon
specialists might learn from the theories of Harold Bloom, for
example, as they are set forth in The Anxiety of Influence
and A Map of Misreading. This article will provide
specific examples of intertextual and interlinguistic reading,
applied to Agnon's "Panim Aherot" and ul'Veit Abba", and suggest
the broader significance of these approaches.
