Stimmen von einst. Jiddisch in der Literatur Polens

Summary/Abstract: Regarding the thesis that modern Yiddish literature which came into being on Polish soil is a part of Polish literature (Marian Fuks), the attitude of the four poets who wrote in Polish or in Yiddish – Julian Tuwim, Rajzel Żychlińska, Abraham Sutzkever and Arnold Słucki – towards literature and culture in Polish and Yiddish are scrutinized. Their function as bridges between the two poles of Polish culture was only temporary. While only Tuwim and Słucki are regarded as Polish writers in Poland today, the other two poets, who wrote in Yiddish, are unknown or forgotten.
