I read an interesting article about Zamenhof Esperanto – A Jewish Story. I was unaware that he produced works in or about the Yiddish language. Do any/all of these works survive to this day? Are there English/Esperanto translations of them?

Thanks!

I found on GB: link

It's "The Urban Israeli Language"- supposingly yiddish.

Admin: I turned your text into a link, since the long link interferes with the code of the page

That book is a book written in Hebrew about Esperanto. It's called "One language for all of us"

Zamenhof did propose some kind of "modernized Yiddish" but that isn't what this book is about.
