Literary career
Mendele Mocher Sforim, I.L., is one of his contemporaries. Peretz and Jacob Dinezon, as well as in Russian, began writing in Hebrew and Russian. Tsvey Shteyner ("Two Stones"), his first Yiddish tale, when he was 24 years old, was published in 1883, using the pseudonym Sholem Aleichem for the first time.
He was a central figure in Yiddish literature, the vernacular language used by nearly all East European Jews, by 1890, and Yiddish published more than forty books. It was often derogatorily referred to as "jargon," but Sholem Aleichem used the term in a completely non-pejorative sense.
Sholem Aleichem's book "Select" was inspired by his personal experience to inspire other Yidish writers. He published two issues of an almanac in 1888-89, including Di Yidishe Folksbibliotek ("The Yiddish Popular Library"), which gave young Yiddish writers some exposure.
He could not afford to print the almanac's third issue in 1890, after he lost his entire fortune, but it was never published.
Tevye the Dairyman, a Yiddish man, was first published in 1894.
Over the next few years, he wrote in Russian for an Odessa newspaper and for Voskhod, the best Russian Jewish journal of the time, as well as in Hebrew for Ha-melitz and an anthology edited by YH Ravnitzky. Sholem Aleichem contracted tuberculosis during this time.
Sholem Aleichem edited: "Help: An Anthology of Literature and Art" by Sholem Aleichem, 1943; Warsaw, 1904) and himself translated three stories published by Tolstoy (Esarhaddon, King of Assyria; Work, Death and Sickness; The Three Questions), as well as contributions by other leading Russian writers, including Chekhov, in support of the victims of the Kishinev pogrom in August 1904
