10. Megilat haTevah describes events in 396 locations where Jews were
murdered.|
Megilat haTevah of Eliezer David Rosenthal was one of the most
comprehensive and important works written about Ukrainian Jewry in general
and about the Jews during the period of the civil war in particular. The work
is a priceless contribution to understanding the pogroms in Ukraine.
Rosenthal's documentary project is so impressive in range and content that
no parallel can be found in modern Jewish history. Unlike historians and
chroniclers, Rosenthal did not seek to trace the causes of the pogroms, their
motivations, or their scope. Instead he was concerned with the ordinary Jew
who was the first to pay the price of the bloodstained civil war in the
disintegrating tsarist empire. Megilat haTevah thus reveals the appalling
events of the war from the viewpoint of the survivor and the victim. Its
commemorates the tens of thousands of massacred Jews.
