My name is Ula Chowaniec (contact here) and I am professor of literature, teaching several courses devoted to Jewish Women's Writing and Yiddish Literature in Translation at the Paideia Folkhögskola.
COURSES:
The courses are design to investigate - through the vehicle of literature - Jewish life and Jewish history of the late 19th-century and 20th- and 21th-centuries writings. We follow the development of literature written by Jewish women writers and Jewish writers in general both in Yiddish and Hebrew as well as in other languages. All classes and texts are discussed based on English translations. Here you can follow the COURSE structures, the syllabuses and reading material for the current course. You can also find here material collected from the past courses, presentations, some PDFs and links. |
