The world of theatre, like the world of law and the world of psychology, deals with the human soul. These are fascinating worlds, which are often found in internal contradictions. They teach us that we must not only see what is presented superficially in front of our faces, but also look inward and thus see ourselves as well.

This book deals with six plays, originally written in Yiddish, but translated into many different languages, which have been staged with great success around the world, thus showing the universal power of the text. It examines these texts for the first time from a legal and psychoanalytical perspective, which sheds new light on the theatrical work as well as the conflicts between the characters.

Dr Yaniv Goldberg is a Rabbi, Advocate, Certified Mediator and Researcher of law, literature and theatre. A senior lecture at the Law faculty, Peres academic centre and the Yiddish centre at Bar Ilan University. His dissertation focused on the connection between the worlds of law and literature. He is also the author of Conversations with Actress Lea Koenig about Theatre and Biography.

Dr Noga Levine Keini holds a doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the Union Graduate School, USA. She is a Senior Lecturer at Ashkelon Academic College, Israel. Her field of interest and research is psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy and she has published a number of papers on theory and practice regarding psychodynamic and psychoanalytic theory and practice.
