内容説明

Modernism valorizes the marginal, the exile, the "other" - yet we tend to use writing from the most commonly read European languages (English, French, German) as examples of this marginality. Chana Kronfeld counters these dominant models of marginality by looking instead at modernist poetry written in two decentered languages, Hebrew and Yiddish. What results is a bold new model of literary dynamics, one less tied to canonical norms, less limited geographically, and less in danger of universalizing the experience of minority writers. Kronfeld examines the interpenetrations of modernist groupings through examples of Hebrew and Yiddish poetry in Europe, the US, and Israel. Her discussions of Amichai, Fogel, Raab, Halpern, Markish, Hofshteyn and Sutskever should be of interest to students of modernism in general, and of Hebrew and Yiddish literatures in particular.
