Enciclopedia B-S (in Spanish)
Burucúa, José Emilio
Synopsis "Enciclopedia B-S (in Spanish)"
Based on the memoirs of Raúl--better known in 1950s Argentina as the wrestler "The Man Mountain"--and on a trove of his family's historical documents, this fascinating historiography relates Raúl's journey from his native Romania to Palestine, Israel, postwar France, and finally to Argentina, and introduces a large cast of family members and friends. More than simply a scrapbook of the life of one particular European Jewish family, however, Enciclopedia B-S is the story of the diaspora of millions of Jews during the 20th century and an examination of the political, cultural, and militaristic upheavals that caused it. Basándose en las memorias de Raúl--conocido en la Argentina de los años 50 como el luchador "Hombre Montaña"--y en sus archivos familiares, esta fascinante historiografía relata su viaje desde su Rumania natal hasta Argentina, pasando por Palestina, Israel y Francia de la posguerra, y presenta a un reparto de familiares y amigos. Más que un simple álbum de recortes de la vida de una familia judía europea particular, sin embargo, Enciclopedia B-S es la historia de la diáspora de millones de judíos durante el siglo XX y un examen de los trastornos políticos, culturales y militares que fueron su causa.
