On Wednesday, March 19th from 12:00 - 1:00pm at Sinai Temple, CHAI Seniors welcomes Dr. Rachelle Grossman, Assistant Professor in the Department of Comparative & World Literature at UIUC. Her work focuses on the intersection of Yiddish and its transnational connections with other literatures, languages, and cultures. Her current book manuscript discusses the transformation of Yiddish after the Holocaust and examines the many competing efforts of major Yiddish cultural figures in Argentina, Poland, and the United States to preserve and propagate Yiddish after immense loss. She may bring her Yiddish type-writer for some show and tell!
