Abstract:
Discusses the Israeli poet's collection of poetry "Sinizo i fumo" ("Ash and Smoke"), published in Judeo-Spanish in 1986. The book commemorates the Jewish community of Salonika, most of whom perished in 1943 in Auschwitz, and pays homage to its language and cultural legacy. The poems relate the stages of persecution of the Jews and their deportation, and images of their extermination in the concentration camp. They also present hope for revival of the Judeo-Spanish language and literature.
