Abstract

With this article on Perets Markish (1895–1952), a Yiddish Modernist poet from the Soviet Union, we would like to contribute to the celebration of Ádám Nádasdy, our former Yiddish teacher, poet and linguist, who introduced us to this wonderful language and colourful culture. Whoever has followed Ádám’s Yiddish Courses at ELTE will remember the heros fun sotsialistisher mi. Independently of the Zeitgeist, both in traditional and modern contexts, educating students, scholarly work, and/or creating literature all require “mi”, that is, hard work, which is one of the many lessons we were lucky to learn from Ádám.
