The narrative unfolds through a cast of historical characters, from the well-known—such as Emma Goldman—to the more obscure, including an anarchist rabbi who translated the Talmud and a feminist doctor who organised for women’s suffrage and against national borders. Its literary scope includes the Soviet epic poemas of Peretz Markish, the journalism and modernist poetry of Anna Margolin, and the early radical prose of Malka Heifetz Tussman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnna Elena Torres examines Yiddish anarchist aesthetics from the nineteenth-century Russian proletarian immigrant poets through the modernist avant-gardes of Warsaw, Chicago, and London to contemporary antifascist composers. The book also traces Jewish anarchist strategies for negotiating surveillance, censorship, detention, and deportation, revealing the connection between Yiddish modernism and struggles for free speech, women’s bodily autonomy, and the transnational circulation of avant-garde literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRather than focusing on narratives of assimilation, Torres intervenes in earlier models of Jewish literature by centring refugee critique of the border. Jewish deportees, immigrants, and refugees opposed citizenship as the primary guarantor of human rights. Instead, they cultivated stateless imaginations, elaborated through literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47995464122604,"sku":"9780300243567","price":92.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780300243567-horizons-blossom-borders-vanish.jpg?v=1784896150"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/anna-elena-torres.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
