Tea Arciszewska’s play Miryeml was heralded as a powerful memorial to the million children murdered in the Holocaust. In this talk, Sonia Gollance will discuss her translation of this nearly-forgotten modernist masterpiece as part of a broader effort to uncover Yiddish plays by women.

This talk is co-sponsored by the Jewish Studies Program.
