Mendele Personal Notices & Announcements

June 25, 2010

To minimize wear and tear on the untershames, three requests:

1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance.
2. Send material as plain text:  no HTML, other coding, or attachments;and 
write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line.
3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has 
posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames.

Subject: Translator needed for "Alice 150"

In the fall of 2015 an exhibition of "Alice in Wonderland" translations 
will be mounted at The Grolier Club in New York, for which I am seeking a 
translator into Yiddish. If you are interested in participating, write me 
for a document that describes the exhibit, the need for assistance, and 
how "re-translators" and essay writers should approach their task. It also 
describes the resulting book on Alice in translation and the part writers 
will play.

IMPORTANT:  Please include your full name as you would like it to appear

include the author's name as you would like it to appear.

In order to spare the shamosim time and effort, we request that 
contributors adhere, when applicable, as closely as possible to standard 
English punctuation, grammar, etc. and to the YIVO rules of 
transliteration into Latin letters. A guide to Romanization can be found 
at this site:

All other messages should be sent to the shamosim at this address:
