''The Dybbuk'', or ''Between Two Worlds'' ((ロシア語:Меж двух миров ()), trans. ''Mezh dvukh Mirov ()''; (イディッシュ語: - דֶער דִבּוּק צִווִישֶן צְווַיי ווֶעלְטֶן ), ''Tzvishn Zwey Weltn – der Dibuk'') is a play by S. Ansky, authored between 1913 and 1916. It was originally written in Russian and later translated into Yiddish by Ansky himself. ''The Dybbuk'' had its world premiere in that language, performed by the Vilna Troupe at Warsaw in 1920. A Hebrew version was prepared by Hayim Nahman Bialik, and staged at Habima Theater, Moscow in 1922. The play, which depicts the possession of a young woman by the malicious spirit – known as ''Dybbuk'' in Jewish folklore – of her dead beloved, became a canonical work of both Hebrew and Yiddish theatre, being further translated and performed around the world. ==Characters== * Leah, daughter of Sender, a maiden who had come of age and yet her father constantly rejects her suitors * Khanan, a poor Yeshiva student enamored with Leah, who is rumored to practice forbidden Kabbalah * Sender, son of Henya, a rich merchant who resides in Brinitz, Leah's father. * The Messenger, a sinister, unnamed traveler. * Rabbi Azriel, son of Hadasa, A venerable hasidic Tzadik who resides in nearby Miropol, reputed to be a miracle-worker * Nisan, son of Karina, a scholar who knew Azriel * Rabbi Samson, Mara d'atra (chief rabbi) of Miropol. * Michael, Azriel's servant * Meyer, beadle in the Brinitz synagogue * Gittel and Besya, Leah's friends * Frieda, her old nurse * Menashe, Leah's new betrothed * Nakhman, his father * Asher and Hanoch, Yeshiva students and friends of Khanan * The two Dayannim, the religious judges presiding alongside Samson * Three idlers, who waste their time in the study hall * Azriel's hasidim, poor folk, crowd 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Dybbuk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
