Sinopsis

This is the English Translation of the Memorial Book of the town of Tluste (Tovste), Ukraine. áIt will serve as a memorial to the Jewish community.Prior to World War II, TÅéuste (now Tovste, Ukraine) was a flourishing Polish market town with a Jewish presence dating back to the 1700s. Over the next twoácenturies, Jews came to comprise two-thirds of the population. Tluste is famously associated with theáBa&rsquo,al Shem Tov, the spiritual founder of Hassidism, whoágrew up here.ááA relatively peaceful co-existence among the Jewish, Ukrainian and Polish communities was disrupted, first by the Soviet occupation of 1939, then by the NaziáGerman invasion of 1941. During the war years, TÅéuste and its vicinity became an important transit point and congregation center for Jews fleeing persecutionáfrom other towns and villages. While thousands of Jews perished in the town, particularly in targeted mass killings, many survived in nearby agricultural laborácamps and in hiding.áThe original Hebrew and Yiddish contributions toáSefer TÅéusteáshed light on the destruction of the Jewish community, and tell the stories of those who survived it. Theá1965 book also documented in rich detail the Jewish way of life in former TÅéuste, with its cultural traditions and social institutions. The recent testimony of formeráresidents and survivors complements these precious historical accounts.áááPrior to World War II, TÅéuste (now Tovste, Ukraine) was a flourishing Polish market town with a Jewish presence dating back to the 1700s.
