Abstract
Yiddish translation has been a two-way phenomenon in Canada in the twentieth century that mirrors the changing identity of Jews of Eastern European origin. The Yiddish press translated Canada to the Jewish immigrant masses while Yiddish schools translated ideology to their children. Translations from world literature into Yiddish that appeared in a series of literary journals in the 1920s and 1930s introduced art and ideas to their readerships and demonstrate that Yiddish is a language on a par with other modern languages. Translations from sacred Hebrew-Aramaic texts served both to bring these texts to readers in their vernacular, and, in particular in the post-Holocaust era, as monuments to a lost tradition. Conversely, translations from Yiddish into English allowed authors a wider readership as Jews began to acculturate and adopt English as their primary language. Most recently, Yiddish translations into both French and English have created wider access to both literature and non-fiction materials among non-Yiddish readers.

Résumé
La traduction yiddish est un phénomène à double sens au Canada au XXe siècle, reflétant ainsi l’identité changeante des Juifs originaires de l’Europe de l’Est. Les journaux yiddish ont traduit le Canada aux immigrants autant que les écoles yiddish ont traduit l’idéologie à leurs enfants. Les traductions de la littérature mondiale vers le yiddish qui ont paru dans des revues littéraires dans les années 1920 et 1930 ont introduit l’art et les idées au lectorat et ont prouvé que le yiddish est une langue égale aux autres langues modernes. Les traductions des textes hébreux-araméens sacrés ont servi à présenter ces textes aux lecteurs dans leur langue vernaculaire et, surtout après l’Holocauste, comme monument d’une tradition perdue. Inversement, les traductions du yiddish en anglais ont permis aux auteurs d’atteindre un lectorat plus large au moment où les Juifs ont commencé à s’intégrer et à adopter l’anglais comme leur langue principale. Plus récemment, les traductions du yiddish en français et en anglais ont créé un accès plus large aux textes littéraires et non romanesques aux lecteurs non yiddish.
