Facilitated by Dr. Miriam Rosalyn Diamond
Monday, October 25, 7:30-9pm – Rachel Bluwstein
The year 2021 is a milestone for trailblazing Israeli women poets—it marks the 90th yahrzeit of the poet Rachel and the 110th anniversary of Lea Goldberg’s birth. In Hebrew, we use the same word for song and poem—shir. In these discussion groups, we will read, discuss, and listen to Rachel and Lea’s poems set to music in popular Israeli songs. You are welcome to attend one or both sessions. Knowledge of Hebrew is not necessary. Both sessions will take place over Zoom. Please email Miriam if you would like to participate.
