About this program:

Bringing to Light Yiddish Women Writers, with Faith Jones

Featuring: Faith Jones

Over the past ten years, many misconceptions about Yiddish-speaking women have been overturned—particularly regarding women in the literary world. Whether in terms of how many women wrote, what they wrote, how they were viewed, or what their purpose may have been, our knowledge of women as writers and editors is sharply different now than it once was. In this program, librarian and translator Faith Jones discusses some of the interesting new developments and discoveries in the world of women and Yiddish.

This event took place on March 25, 2021. It was presented online by the Yiddish Book Center in Amherst, MA.

This recording was digitized and added to the library in April 2022.
