The article attempts to answer the question concerning the way so-called 'froyen frage' (the matter of women) was presented in the Yiddish press at the beginning of 20th century and how it was transformed in the twenties last century. A comparative analysis of three partially survived papers ('Di Yidishe Froyen-Velt', 'Froyen Shtim', and 'Di Froy') focuses on the following issues: - who are its editors and co-workers, and to whom it is addressed; - its aims and the ways they are achieved; - the model of a women and her place in the society as created by the press; - whether the discourse of war of sexes is present in the press, and if it does, which arguments and strategies are used; - whether the discourse is politically engaged; - the extent to which the Jewish nationality or religion determines the cultural sex identity.

This paper presents how woman’s subjectiveness is expressed in the early (pre-Second World War) Kadia Molodowsky’s poetry and how it influences the definition of a social role of the poetry and the voice of the poetess in the debate about the Yiddish women’s lyric. These problems are described with the connection to the Jewish religious tradition which was a very important background of Molodowsky’s poetry.
