Hope and Fear: Y. L. Peretz and the Forging of Modern Jewish Culture

November 1, 2015 YIVO Institute for Jewish Research Symposium | Presented in honor of the 100th anniversary of Y.L. Peretz’s death. Y. L. Peretz (1852-1915) was the father of the Yiddish cultural revolution that transformed Jewish life in the early 20th century. The first to bring high literary talent to the workers’ movement, the first to use Jewish folklore for literary creation and the first Jewish cultural figure to enlist in electoral politics, Peretz championed a culture that embraced both tradition and modernist invention, and fought for its right to flourish in dangerous times. --- Keynote Lecture Hope and Fear: Y.
