Mendele: Yiddish literature and language ________________________________________________________________________________ Contents of Vol. 1 no. 2 May 16, 1991 1) Research opportunity ______________________________________________________________________________ Date: Thu, 16 May 91 9:56:19 EDT From: Amnon Zipin Subject: Maurice Schwartz Several years ago the Ohio State University (OSU) purchased a collection of manuscript notebooks, handwritten and typescript, relating to the Jewish Art Theater of New York. There are 17 notebooks comprising over 1200 pages of manuscript in Schwartz's hand, 7 type- script notebooks and various photographs and clippings. I believe a bibliographic and otherwise description of the material will make for a very interesting article. Unfor- tunately my knowledge of Yiddish is not enough to complete this task. I would like to notify the community of Yiddish scholars about the availability of this material at OSU and invite interested parties to either cooperate with me in producing the description and some background material for an article or to do it themselves. We will extend assistance to those interested. Amnon Zipin, Associate Professor and Bibliographer in Jewish Studies. E-mail Address azipin@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu Telephone (614) 292-3362
