Resumo: This article examines the family life that the Polish writer Isaac Bashevis Singer stages on In My Father’s Court. From the autobiographical perspective, the author narrates cases brought to his father’s judgment in the Beit Din that ran in Warsaw, and reconstructs the life in this city and Bilgoray, where his family moved during the First World War. By means of the analysis of the past brought up by Singer, we intend to explore the life of the Jewish-Polish community in the early years of the twentieth century and seek for contributions that allow us to understand the context in which it was immersed. Singer judges not only his father, his family, himself and the cases brought to the rabbinical court. Throughout the narrative, Singer establishes his own Beit Din: there, the true object of judgment are the first decades of the twentieth century and the network of philosophical, religious, political and scientific influences that permeated Judaism in Eastern Europe in the period before the Shoah.

A partir da perspectiva autobiográfica, o autor narra casos levados para julgamento de seu pai no Beit Din que funcionava em Varsóvia, e reconstrói a vida nessa cidade e em Bilgoray, para onde a família se transferiu durante a Primeira Guerra Mundial. Por meio do passado resgatado por Singer, pretendemos explorar a vida da comunidade judaico-polonesa nos primeiros anos dos Novecentos e levantar subsídios que nos permitam compreender o contexto no qual ela estava imersa. Singer não apenas julga o pai, a família, a si mesmo e os casos trazidos ao tribunal rabínico. Ao longo da narrativa, Singer instaura o seu próprio Beit Din: ali, o verdadeiro objeto de julgamento são as primeiras décadas do século 20 e a rede de influências filosóficas, religiosas, políticas e científicas que permearam o judaísmo do leste europeu no período anterior ao Shoah.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2015-11-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/article/view/1427910.17851/1982-3053.9.17.132-152Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMG; v. 9 n. 17 (2015): Família e infância na cultura judaica; 132-1521982-3053reponame:Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMGinstname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/article/view/14279/1Judensnaider, Ivyinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-07-20T14:36:25Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/14279Revistahttp://www.periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/indexPUBhttp://www.periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/maaravi/oai||lyslei@ufmg.br1982-30531982-3053opendoar:2020-07-20T14:36:25Arquivo Maaravi: Revista Digital de Estudos Judaicos da UFMG - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
