Preserving Yiddish Culture in Canada : The Remarkable Legacy of Chaim Leib Fuks
|
| Abstract |
Chaim Leib Fuks (1896-1984) was born in Lodz, Poland. His global wanderings both before and after the Second World War ended in 1973 when he settled in Montreal. In 1980, Fuks published Hundert yor Yidishe un Hebreyshe literature in Kanade [100 Years of Yiddish and Hebrew Literature in Canada]. Tracking down sources across Canada and researching through the holdings of the Montreal Jewish Public Library Archives and the Canadian Jewish Congress National Archives, Fuks compiled the biographies of 429 authors and poets, 227 of whom called Montreal home. The book was translated into French by Pierre Anctil in 2005 as Cent ans de littérature yiddish et hébraïque au Canada.
