🎧 One Sentence Introduction!
* In this episode, we explore the Israel–Palestine conflict through the poetic lens of Yehuda Amichai. Rather than focusing on politics or ideology, the podcast highlights shared human experiences — grief, love, war, and longing. Amichai’s verses, rich in paradox and daily imagery, offer a soft but powerful way to reimagine peace. Poetry, in this context, becomes not just art, but a bridge.
🎧 一句话总结中文版!
* 本期节目通过以色列诗人耶胡达·阿米亥的诗歌视角切入巴以冲突,避开政治立场,聚焦共同的人类情感:悲伤、爱情、战争与渴望。阿米亥以日常意象与悖论语言构建出柔性却有力的和平想象,使诗歌不仅是艺术,更是一种跨越对立的桥梁。
