Description: Amsterdam, Menasseh ben Israel Inst., 2020. 64 pp.Softcover. English language. Contr. by Oren Cohen Roman, Astrid Lembke, Midiam Edlich-Muth. Yiddish literature is a Jewish literature. It is also a European literature and its literary materials and forms reflect contacts with Jewish and non-Jewish cultures. It is therefore not surprising that we find Yiddish texts about knights from the Middle Ages and early modern period. In the specialist lectures at this symposium, which will all be presented in English, we encounter epic poems and romances resulting from contact with Hebrew (biblical, midrashic), German and Italian literatures ISBN: 9789082967432
