Abstract

This paper elucidates plainly the condition of American theatre where the literature exists with the support of Jewish works in America. It shows the indispensible nature of American literature without Jews. It also paves way to understand the existence of Jews using their tragic-comical temperament.The humorous condition of Jews makes them exist in America. They ridicule themselves and it helped them for their existence.It also talks about one of the Jews, Emma Lazarus and her existence in America. Jews can be proud because of the Jewish American poet, Emma Lazarus born into a Sephardic family, whose poetic lines have been carved on a bronze plaque in the pedestal of theStatue of Liberty which was placed in 1903.A speedy enrichment is noted about the Jewish American culture over the past twenty years. Humour helps Jewish people to endure their dreadful subsistence. Jews subjugated their complicated circumstances with the approach of their hilarious temperament.
