Sun and Moon, Together
“Sun and Moon, Together” is a chapbook and a father-daughter collaboration, prepared in honor of the August 2017 total solar eclipse. A mini literary magazine of sorts, it represents an initial part of a broader Atiq sun/moon project that is in the works.
“Sun and Moon, Together” includes different approaches by which we can observe and appreciate the spiritual significance in the cosmic presentation of the sun and moon during a total eclipse. An essay, by Nehemia Polen, explores the astronomy involved which then becomes a springboard for examining the moon in the Jewish imagination, in particular in the Rabbinic tradition. An illustrated poem by Adina Polen is a retelling of a story from the Talmud about the creation of the sun and moon and is meant for children and adults to share. Finally, a selection of family-centered discussion questions and activities are included for further exploration.
Beautifully printed, it is now available in the Atiq shop!
ATIQ Maker Kollel Cohort Two Chapbook
“Can We Have a Conversation” is a chapbook that showcases the work of the second Atiq Maker Kollel, a cohort experience which was bisected by the appearance of the Covid-19 pandemic. From the introduction: “As we walked the path of our own inquiry through the emergence of individual projects, we were also exploring a layered landscape of shared territory. This chapbook, titled with a question suggested by cohort fellow Andrea Nemerson, is a field guide to a moment in time and space during which we found ourselves using words, feelings, materials and actions to ask ourselves and others and the world: “Can we have a conversation?”
