ID No.: Szumigalski Collection: MSS 61 – Creator: Szumigalski – 1922-1999; Extent: 3 boxes; 46cm; Language: Collection material in English Repository: Special Collections, University of Saskatchewan. Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Biographical Note: Anne Szumigalski, poet (b at London, Eng 3 Jan 1922; d at Saskatoon 22 Apr 1999). Raised in rural Hampshire, she served as an interpreter with the Red Cross during World War II, and in 1951 immigrated with her husband and family to Canada. A translator, editor, playwright, teacher and poet, she was instrumental in founding the Saskatchewan Writers' Guild and the literary magazine Grain. She wrote or co-wrote 14 books, mostly poetry, including Woman Reading in a Bath (1974) and A Game of Angels (1980). Her poetry explores the world of the imagination, a fantastic landscape that stretches between and beyond birth and death and is characterized by the simultaneous concreteness and illogic nature of dreams. She also explores the formal possibilities of the prose poem in several volumes, including Doctrine of Signatures (1983), Instar (1985) and Rapture of the Deep (1991). Because of its appearance on the page, the prose poem is freed from some of the conventions and expectations of the lyric poem, lending itself well to the dreamlike juxtapositions and leaps central to Szumigalski's work. She also wrote her autobiography, The Voice, the Word, the Text (1990) and a play about the Holocaust, Z.

  • Special Edition – Religion and Popular Culture in Canada (2009) Yiddish and Its Increasing Presence in the Realms of Performance, Translation and Scholarship
    This is an electronic copy of an article published in: Margolis, R. (2009). Culture in motion: Yiddish in Canadian Jewish life. Journal of Religion and Popular Culture, 21 (spec. ed.). Available online at: http://www.usask.ca/relst/jrpc/art%28se%29-Yiddish.html Culture in Motion: Yiddish in Canadian Jewish Life Rebecca Margolis University of Ottawa Résumé Le vingtième siècle a vu la transformation du Yiddish au Canada: la langue s'est déplacée d’un vernaculaire immigrant, à une langue de haute culture, à une langue d'héritage et à une composante de la culture populaire juive. Cette transformation correspond à un changement de sa vie institutionnelle, notamment de la publication, la littérature, l'éducation et le théâtre et la musique. L'immigration de masse de dizaines de milliers de juifs Yiddishophones Europe de l’est au début du vingtième siècle a rendu la langue une force significative dans les centres juifs au Canada. Depuis l'Holocauste, le Canada Yiddish a montré la vitalité face à l'usure globale, tant dans la culture Yiddish séculaire modern que dans les communautés Haredi (Ultra Orthodoxes). Ses mécanismes primaires pour la transmission sont centrés sur la performance aussi bien que la traduction. Abstract The past century has transformed Yiddish in Canada: it has moved from an immigrant vernacular, to a language of high culture, to a heritage language and component of Jewish popular culture. These changes are reflected in shifts in its institutional life, notably in publishing, literature, education, and theatre and music. The mass immigration of tens of thousands of Yiddish-speaking Eastern European Jews during the early twentieth century rendered the language a significant force in Jewish centres across Canada.
