商品簡介
Scholars of Yiddish literature, Jewish culture, and the Slavic world explore Yiddish poets and poetry in the Soviet Union during its first three decades. Their topics include Osher Shvartsman and Soviet Yiddish literary criticism, time and space as revolutionary principles in interwar Soviet Yiddish poetry, Chaim Grade's 1941-45 Yiddish poetry as artistic rendering that forms a primary historical source, Khana Levin's verdict to free love, the brigand/knight character in Kulbak's work, and Yiddish-Russian language transfer and 20th-century Russian verbal art. The 12 papers are from a December 2008 conference that was intended to be the first of a regular series, until one of its founders, Joseph Sherman, died. There is no index.
