1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance. 2. Send material as plain text: no HTML, other coding, or attachments;and write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line. 3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. _______________________________________________________________________ Date Thu, 26 Apr 2012 20:53:33 -0600 From: Goldie Morgentaler <[email protected]> Subject: Chava Rosenfarb and Simkha Bunim Shayevitch The Montreal klezmer band Megilla has posted a video of a song by Chava Rosenfarb. The song is in Yiddish with English subtitles. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6np0RErgWko I would also like Mendelyaner to know that I've added a page about the Lodz ghetto poet Simkha-Bunim Shayevitch to the Chava Rosenfarb website. Shayevitch's was the author of the long poem "Lekh Lekho," which was found on a trash heap after the destruction of the Lodz ghetto. He was Rosenfarb's mentor in the ghetto. I believe that this page contains one of the very few known photographs of Shayevitch. The page can be found at: http://chavarosenfarb.com/simkha-bunim-shayevitch Goldie Morgentaler ----------------------- Goldie Morgentaler Professor, Dept of English University of Lethbridge 4401 University Drive Lethbridge, AB.
