All were young, all were poets, most were thoroughly assimilated into Soviet society whilst at the same time being rooted in Jewish culture and traditions. Their poetry, written mostly in Russian, Yiddish, and Ukrainian, was coloured by their backgrounds, by the literary and cultural climate that prevailed in the Soviet Union, and was deeply concerned with their expectation of impending death at the hands of the Nazis. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in the history of Russia and Eastern Europe. 606 $aUkrainian poetry$xJewish authors$y20th century 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xLiterature and the war 606 $aJewish authors$zSoviet Union$vBiography 606 $aRussian poetry$xJewish authors$y20th century 606 $aSoldiers' writings, Soviet 606 $aYiddish poetry$y20th century 615 0$aUkrainian poetry$xJewish authors 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xLiterature and the war. 615 0$aJewish authors 615 0$aRussian poetry$xJewish authors 615 0$aSoldiers' writings, Soviet. 615 0$aYiddish poetry 676 $a891.7098924 700 $aLapidus$b Rina.$0850401 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787183203321 996 $aYoung Jewish poets who fell as Soviet soldiers in the second World War$93838507 997 $aUNINA
