This lecture in Yiddish by Eliezer Niborski, organised by the Yiddish Culture House, is part of the “Paris-Berlin, a link for the Yiddish diaspora” season. Through documents from Yiddish publications in Warsaw (Haynt, Moment, Folkstsaytung, Literarishe Bleter) and New York (Forverts, Der tog, Morgn Frayheyt), we discover the evolution of this press and its links with these two cities. But also, the dialectic of perceptions between Parisians and Berliners, with their caricatural and amusing side.
