Yiddish Poetry in the Original and in Translation
Maia Evrona will read her translations of the poets Anna Margolin, Abraham Sutzkever, Malka Lee and H. Leivick as well as recite the poems in the original Yiddish. There will be handouts with these and other poems in English, the original Yiddish and in transliteration, along with photographs and short articles. Discussion following the reading can center on the themes in the poets’ work, their lives, or her decisions as a translator. If you are already familiar with Yiddish poetry, you're encouraged to memorize a favorite poem to recite, in the original or in translation.
Maia Evrona is a poet and translator of Yiddish poetry, as well as something of a performer of poetry. This talent earned her the nickname of “Di Sheyne Leyenerin” or “The One Who Reads Beautifully” from Yiddish teacher Eliezer Niborski.
