From Vilna’s Ashes: Lost Treasures Return to YIVO
Join us for a Zoom conversation with
Prof. Rabbi Allan (Arn) Nadler
Allan Nadler is a historian and scholar of rabbinic tradition and modern Jewish thought, and a former professor at Drew University. He received Orthodox rabbinic ordination and served as a congregational rabbi in Boston and Montreal, before dedicating himself fully to the academic world. From 1991 to 1998, he served as Director of Research and Head of the Graduate Program at the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research in New York, where he led the struggle to recover Jewish archival materials from Vilna and strengthen YIVO’s relationship with Yiddish culture. He is a well-known writer and has published a wide range of articles and books on Hasidism, Misnagdim, and the relationship between religion, politics, and modernity.
In this interview, we will revisit his years at YIVO, as well as hear his reflections on Yiddish cultural heritage and the ongoing role of archives in shaping Jewish memory.
