My PhD project explores the Hebrew translations of Federico García Lorca's poetry and theatre, tracing their impact on Hebrew literature and culture since the 1930s. It examines how these translations contributed to the shaping of the Jewish-Israeli identity, as the encounter with Lorca's works evoked complex feelings of belonging and nostalgia for a lost Jewish-Iberian past, and at the same time, served as a linguistic laboratory for the transposition of foreign poetic forms. I am also interested in translation theory and hermeneutics, languages in general, and bilingual poetry books.
