Yiddish and Hebrew little Magazines in the Weimarer Republic | Online
27. März @ 18:00–19:00 CET
In this talk, Barbara Mann will discuss the „little magazine,“ a staple of modernist Jewish culture which flourished in the Weimar Republic. The little magazine is a distinctively portable and collaborative genre, an appropriate venue for the migrant, cosmopolitan mix of Berlin’s interwar Jewish population. Each issue blended poetry, manifestos and visual arts to create a unique form of cultural expression. Mann will explore the publishing history of Yiddish and Hebrew little magazines, their content, physical features, and readership.
This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council.
Co-sponsored by the YIVO Institute for Jewish Research and the Leo Baeck Institute.This event is part of Carnegie Hall’s Fall of the Weimar Republic: Dancing on the Precipice festival.
