Guided Tour of the Yiddish Book Repository

The repository tour takes the visitor through the evolution of Yiddish literature and examines common themes and ongoing questions that Yiddish authors address, simply because they are writing in Yiddish: Where do the boundaries of Jewish culture lie?  How do Jews enter the modern world without losing their distinct Jewish identity?  How do Jews respond to oppression?  How does one generation respond to the next?

Repository tours are offered on Sundays at 12:30 p.m. in the Great Hall.
