Sylvie, Anny, Eytan et al...

Please have a look at

http://czernowitzart.blogspot.de/

where you are going to discover - in addition to Paul Celan's recitation of "Todesfuge" - his most famous poem in 10 laguages, i. e.

http://bit.ly/18txLj0 - German
http://bit.ly/11a13yy - Romanian
http://bit.ly/11xJFFI - English
http://bit.ly/ZeCjVl%a0 - French
http://bit.ly/12iSWmM - Portuguese
http://bit.ly/12OZeFz - Italian
http://bit.ly/11aVBeK - Russian
http://bit.ly/18uPYMZ - Dutch
http://bit.ly/12iT3hZ - Spanish

Two more remarks, which I'm pleased to share with you:

Any Matar, our fellow memeber from Israel wrote: "It is amazing, isn't it, how many small shards make the mosaic of this poem. Reading poetry is a special joy when discussing it and finding that, although, you have read it together everyone understood or interpreted it differently not really knowing the hidden meaning of it. Eytan's mother is probably the only one who could put meaning into the words having known him. Thank you Eytan and Edgar, I shall read the poem again and again and understand it better every time."

Prof. Dr. John Felstiner, Professor Emeritus of English at Stanford University, author of many standard works on Paul Celan and of the renowned biography "Paul Celan: Poet, Survivor, Jew", wrotr: "How good to hear from you, Edgar, also greetings to Eytan (whose mother I cherished as a friend, met twice, and exchanged letters for years)! Greetings also to your Czernowitzers, and their attentiveness to Paul Celan! It's moving & exciting to see all this put together so well, and the page of JTA almost drives me to the impossible time and place."

It's hard to escape from the fascination of the "Deathfugue", notwithstanding the language used. Thank you all for your - as John Felstiner mentioned - "attentiveness to Paul Celan"!
