3 hours Doikeyt, Diaspora, Borderlands Same as POL 460 and RELS 494. "Polish Jewish Territories in the Literary Imagination: Doikeyt, Diaspora, Borderlands" In this course Polish-Jewish Territories become a chance to explore contemporary approaches to cultural memory, diaspora, nationhood and belonging, pluralism, and cultural hybridity. Yiddishland, Borderlands, Polin; The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth; the cafes, and cabarets of interwar Poland, or avant-garde art of the 1920s: all are examples of physical or cultural spaces that have come into being at and through the intersection of Polish and Jewish cultures. How are Polish-Jewish spaces and territories remembered and evoked in works of contemporary cinema and theater? How are these territories, and historically Polish lands, differently imagined in Polish and Yiddish literature, film and political writing of the 19th to 21st centuries? Join us to read and watch works by Polish and Yiddish authors, playwrights and poets including Mickiewicz, Peretz, Ansky, Korn, Vogel, Tuwim, Sutzkever, Miosz and Bartana, among other and by .leading political and cultural activists who helped to shape the way communities have narrated their relationships to Polish space, and to Polish-Jewish relations. Restricted to Undergrad - Chicago.
