In most cultures, through research of its folklore, we will almost certainly find a wise fool's story (Hamlet, Tom Sawyer, Claudio, Don Quixote, Van Gogh, Forest A-Gump). The lesson of most folktales stories is accompanied by a paradox that makes a philosophical value of dullness or pretending to be dull. It is therefore wisely to know that Kimpur is a fool or knows that a false fool is beneficial. Let's theorize the experiment. Placing the table in the middle of a crowded park, placing the strawberry bowl on it and labeling it as "free sample", people will start eating strawberries right away.
"Gimpel" is a story about laughter and sorrow. Kimper was a foolish boy since he was a child. People are always cheating on him. Kimpel looks ridiculous, but he is a really smart person. He showed himself to be a wise man, he did not love his children, his religious believers, he did not accept the advice of the devil. There are many ways Gimpel seems to be a fool. Firstly, young people in the village spent a lot of time to make fun of poor gympels (Kazin 353). It seems that he was deeply fascinated by their story. When he was working at a bakery, the masses kept telling Jimper that the wonderful story became increasingly wonderful (Siegel 366). Examples of people who are kidding him are as follows:
In Isaac Bashevis Singer's "Gimpel the Fool", Gimpel does not respect his colleagues and the society of Frampol where he lives. As far as he remembers, Gimpel's life is full of public fraud and lies. No one respects Gimpel or sympathizes for him and his misfortune. Kimpur allowed himself to be a bondage of the town, as he was not willing to stand up for himself and the truth (Sobeloff 1). At last Gimpel finally assed himself in Frampol's all jokes and could not bear his life.
In the story of Gimpel The Fool, Isaac Bashevis Singer develops his role as Gimpel is depicted as a symbol of stereotypes. Throughout the story, Gimpel only gives honesty and trust to everyone. Gimpel is a fixed idea this time and is regarded as a meaningless fool from society. If he is truly a genuine fool, he lacks the motivation behind all the people who play a role in his life. What Gimpel said is two of the reasons for his trust, "I do not think it is stupid (96)" and "What I want to do is (96)." The first is "Everything is possible (96)", the second is "I must believe that the whole city falls on me (96)".
