Since World War II, the sub-Carpathian Mountain region once known
as Maramarosh has remained "Judenrein" (free of Jews). Jewish
Maramarosh lives on, however, through the contributions to
scholarship and humanity of Maramarosh Holocaust survivors and
their progeny, including Nobel laureate Elie Weisel and the Talmud
scholar Professor David Halivni-Weiss. Maramarosh Shoah survivor
and Talmud scholar Professor Elieser Slomovic here provides access
to a collection of responsa literature, most of it out of print and
previously available only or primarily in Yiddish. Through personal
queries about how to live Torah instructed lives and rabbinic
responses, the reader is invited to enter the world of Jewish
Maramarosh, where Hasidism flourished and rabbinic scholarship
reflected human nobility manifested through the pragmatics of
poverty and the dynamics of living closely with nature. Professor
Slomovic, recognizing the fluidity and balance over time provided
by Talmudic thought as exemplified through rabbinic teaching,
invites the reader to join the discourse on the everyday life of
everyday people.
