The Best of Our Knowledge #1594 "A Taste Of Honey On The Page"

Taking over a century of children’s stories and assembling a comprehensive collection is quite an undertaking. Now, make those stories that were originally written in Yiddish, and you end up with an impressive package of all forms of writing and unique perspectives of the world. And that’s why we’re talking today with Miriam Udel.

Dr. Udel is a rabbi and an Associate Professor in the Department of German Studies and the Tam Institute of Jewish Studies at Emory University. Her new collection is called “Honey on the Page – A Treasury of Yiddish Children’s Literature”.

Then we'll ask the question: what's the deal with the first 100 days? And we’ll spend an Academic Minute with panic pandemic tutoring.
