The firstknown Yiddish book to be written by a woman, Meneket Rivkah (Rivkahs Nurse) reveals a great deal about 16thcentury Jewish womens lives and religious practices. It includes Rivkah bat Meirs sermons, her interpretations of the Bible, and other religious instructions on various topics to guide women in their familial relationships.First published posthumously in Prague, in 1609, Meneket Rivkah predates the work of Glueckel of Hamelin and makes a new contribution to the fields of Yiddish literature and Jewish womens literature. Von Rohdens critical introduction and commentary serve to place the work within biblical and rabbinical literature, and within other Yiddish ethical works of Rivkah bat Meirs time. This is the first book to include the original Yiddish text in English translation, as well as the original Yiddish manuscript of Rivkah bat Meirs unpublished Simhes Toyre Lid. The book also includes the original Yiddish text of Meneket Rivkah.
