Description
Summary:This essay explores the as yet undiscovered lyrical conversation conducted by Lea Goldberg with Avraham Sonne. It traces the different stages in Goldberg’s writing on him, through a close reading of all poems in which she addressed Sonne over many years. The first section of the essay concentrates on the construction of Sonne as a poet figure. The second section discusses the internalization of Avraham Ben Yitzhak as a superaddresse within the cycle “Al Ha-Priha.” The final section reflects Goldberg’s attempt to address Sonne not as a poet but as a private individual.
