Based on the memoirs of Raulbetter known in 1950s Argentina as the
wrestler The Man Mountain and on a trove of his family s historical
documents, this fascinating historiography relates Raul s journey from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.
Basandose en las memorias de Raulconocido en la Argentina de los anos
50 como el luchador Hombre Montana y en sus archivos familiares, esta
fascinante historiografia 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. Mas que un simple album de
recortes de la vida de una familia judia europea particular, sin
embargo, Enciclopedia B-S es la historia de la diaspora de millones de
judios durante el siglo XX y un examen de los trastornos politicos,
culturales y militares que fueron su causa.
