Does anyone know where I can find a recording of Shmuel Yosef Agnon's speech for winning the Nobel Prize?

Speaking of "midrash", can someone merge "drush" with "midrash" unless there is some good reason to keep them separate? Thanks! – WAF May 16 '11 at 19:08

@WAF, I think of Midrash as a medieval body of work and drush as a genre that's been in use from then to now. Do you see them differently? – Isaac Moses May 16 '11 at 19:44
@Isaac is there a "transfer to meta" button for comments? – David Perlman May 17 '11 at 12:12
@David I don't think so. – Isaac Moses May 17 '11 at 12:30

@IsaacMoses - I suppose so. It's just not clear to me what "drush" as a genre refers to. Maybe somebody can write a tag wiki for it. – WAF May 22 '11 at 14:59

Yes, in the noble prize site: Shai Agnon's banquet speech (that's in Hebrew, and there's also a translation to English)
