Please join the League for Yiddish
in conjunction with YIVO and “YO” – Yiddish-Ort
for a Zoom workshop
honoring the memory of the Yiddish poet who recently left us
Rivka Basman Ben-Hayim z”l
(Vilkomir/Ukmergė, 1925 – Herzliah, 2023)
Her passing marks the end of an entire era in the world of Yiddish letters. She was a wonderful person with a rich life that was reflected in her poetry.
We invite you to this interactive workshop, where you will have the opportunity to get to know her poems from various stages of her life. We will read and discuss them together, under the guidance of Dr. Miriam Trinh, who will place the poet’s oeuvre in a historical-biographical context.
