An outlook on the Yiddish world and Jewish cultural associations (Tucumán, 1925-1932) Una perspectiva del mundo del idish y el asociacionismo cultural judío
As a result of a visit made to Tucumán by Russian-born editor and writer Zalmen Reisen (1887- 1941) in 1932, as a delegate of Vilna’s Yiddish Scientific Institute, the aim of the present work is to make headway in an almost unexplored field of study; that related to Yddish and culture within Tucumán’s Jewish associations in the time between the two great wars. By no means wishing to be comprehensive, this article examines some associative practices, delves into artistic and cultural activities, and leads to some considerations regarding the characteristics of Tucumán‘s Jewish associations between the late 1920s an the beginning of the´30s.
