Havaner lebn ( Yiddish: האװאנער לעבּן, 'Havana Life'), known in Spanish as Vida Habanera, was a Yiddish and Spanish language newspaper published from Havana, Cuba 1932–1960. [1] [2] The first issue came out on November 11, 1932. [3] It was the first commercial Jewish newspaper in the country with a longer duration. [3] It was the main publication of the Ashkenazi Jewish community in the country at the time. [1]
Havaner lebn was founded by Elieser Aronowsky, Oscar Pinis and Carlos Shwarzapel. [4] During its first years it came out weekly. [4] Pinis was the editor of Havaner lebn 1932–1935. [5] Sender Meyer Kaplan became the editor of Havaner lebn in 1935. [6] [7] He was assisted by Abraham J. Dubelman, who acted as co-editor of the newspaper. [3] [8] The authors of the newspaper were generally male. [2]
The newspaper carried advertisements for Jewish businesses. [2] Havaner lebn published a yearly almanac, which became a key source on the history of the Jewish community in Cuba for this period. [9]
In 1936 attacks on Havaner lebn were issued in the press organs of José Ignacio Rivero, which accused the newspaper of being leftist and anti-Cuban. As a result, Kaplan was arrested and detained for four weeks. [7]
From 1937 onwards it was published twice-weekly. [10] It became a bilingual (Yiddish/Spanish) publication in the 1950s. [4]
The last issue was published on December 31, 1960. Many of the companies advertising in the newspaper had been nationalized, and would no longer pay the bills for ordered adverts. [11] Both Kaplan and Dubelman migrated to Miami, United States shortly afterwards. [1] [11]
