THE CENTER FOR RESEARCH IN JEWISH CULTURE at the Faculty of Philology of the University of Lodz and the MAREK EDELMAN DIALOGUE CENTER IN LODZ are organizing the International Academic Conference "CHAVA ROSENFARB AND JEWISH WRITERS OF THE 20th CENTURY". Date of the conference: October 18-20, 2023 Place: Marek Edelman Dialogue Center in Lodz and Faculty of Philology, University of Lodz
The centenary of the birth of Chava Rosenfarb (1923-2011), a native of Lodz, but who created after the war, mainly in Canada, and who is considered the most outstanding contemporary Yiddish writer, is an opportunity to subject to scholarly reflection not only her novels, poems and essays, but also to look at the work of other 20th-century Jewish women writers who articulated their Jewish, female and gender experience in similar or precisely different ways. We want to broaden the field of our attention, even though Rosenfarb's texts themselves are already very interesting material for the study of autobiographical themes in literature, fictional representations of the Holocaust, records of the ghetto experience, attempts at literary reconstruction of the lost worlds of the shtetl and Jewish Lodz, or the "gender traces" that mark all these worlds. We want to make the subject of reflection the works of Jewish women authors, writing in the 20th century not only in Yiddish - such as Chava Rosenfarb - or Polish and Hebrew, but also in the languages of the countries in which these authors lived and worked, or with which they felt connected.

On the centenary of the writer's birth, by a resolution of the City Council of Lodz, Chava Rosenfarb became one of the patrons of the Year 2023. The Marek Edelman Dialogue Center in Lodz, together with its partners, has prepared a year-long program of celebrations: numerous workshops, walks, readings, artistic actions, a concert inspired by the writer's poetry and in October a scientific conference, organized by the University of Lodz, devoted to Chava Rosenfarb's work honoring her family.
THE CENTER FOR JEWISH CULTURE RESEARCH at the Faculty of Philology of the University of Lodz and the MAREK EDELMAN DIALOGUE CENTER IN LODZ invite you to participate in the International Scientific Conference CHAVA ROSENFARB AND JEWISH WRITERS OF THE 20th CENTURY.
The centenary of the birth of Chava Rosenfarb (1923-2011), a native of Lodz, but writing after the war, mainly in Canada, who is considered the most outstanding contemporary Yiddish writer, is an opportunity to subject to scholarly reflection not only her novels, poems and essays, but also to look at the work of other twentieth-century Jewish women writers who articulated their Jewish, female and gender experience in similar or precisely different ways. We want to broaden the field of our attention, even though Rosenfarb's texts themselves are already very interesting material for the study of autobiographical themes in literature, fictional representations of the Holocaust, records of the ghetto experience, attempts at literary reconstruction of the lost worlds of the shtetl and Jewish Lodz, or the "gender traces" that mark all these worlds. We want to make the subject of reflection the works of Jewish women authors, writing in the 20th century not only in Yiddish - such as Chava Rosenfarb - or Polish and Hebrew, but also in the languages of the countries in which these authors lived and worked, or with which they felt connected.
Jewish women's writing vs: - cultural traditions (religious and moral, artistic and literary, etc.), - modernization processes, - anti-Semitism, - social and political movements, - Holocaust experiences: the ghetto, life in hiding, concentration camp (fictions and egodocumentaries), - Diaspora experience, - assimilation-identity issues;
Genres and styles of works by Jewish women writers in the 20th century; Mame loszn and other languages of their expression; The work of women writers of Jewish Lodz, in particular - Chava Rosenfarb. For not exceeding 2500 characters abstracts of speeches on the above issues (but also others related to the theme of the conference), along with a short bio, are waiting until March 1, 2023 at: This email address is being protected from spambots.
