Rachel, folks:

I found it.

[dot]Tog un nakh[dot]t : a [dot]tragedye in drai a[dot]k[dot]ten featuring R. Dan, Devorah, Miryam, Hananyah, Gedalyah, and Mendel.

My source: Gezamelte shriften in Funftsehn bender / S. An-Ski. Amherst : National Yiddish Book Center, [1999?]. Steven Spielberg Digital Yiddish Library no. 05847.  ISBN 0657058475. Volume 2. Dramen. Pp. 109-144.

... which is a reprint of the 1920s-ish works collection published by Ferlag "An-Ski." This particular volume is the 2nd edition and was published in 1928.

Surrogates upon request.

Cheers

B

I did figure out what the title means, but we don't have a full set of Anski's works, and it's not in the first volume which we do have.

It's one of the plays of Sh. An-ski.  "Pest" translates to "Plague."  Perhaps you can check one of the sets of collected works (e.g. Kol Kitve S. An-ski / S.L. Tsitron, 1921; Gezamelte shriftn, 1928; Oysgeklibene shriftn, 1964;) which would allow you to find the title of the original play by scanning for the character names.

Sorry I can't be of more help.  Maybe also post on Hasafran?

We received a book published in 1928 by Felix Stossinger, Berlin: "Die Pest : drama in 3 Akten von Anski" to which is added by hand" nach der Ubersetzung von Rosa Nossig, fur die Buhne bearbeirtet von Arno Nadel".

The cast are: Rabbi Don, Deborah, Miriam, Chananja, Gedalja and three elders.

Any idea what this is a translation of?

Thanks,

Rachel

We're happy as fish,

as gorgeous as geese,

and wonderfully clean in the morning.
