HIST |
Yiddish was primary language of
European Jewry and its emigrant communities for nearly one thousand years.
This class will explore the role of Yiddish in Jewish life and introduce
students to Yiddish language, literature and culture. Topics will include the
sociolinguistic basis of Jewish languages; medieval popular literature for a
primarily female audience; the role of Yiddish in the spread of haskalah (the Jewish Enlightenment); attempts to formulate
a secular Jewish identity around the Yiddish language; the flourishing of
modern Yiddish press, literature, and theater and their intersection with
European modernism; contemporary Hasidic (ultra-Orthodox) culture; and the
ongoing debate over the alleged death of Yiddish. All
assignments will be in English translation and will include Yiddish fiction,
poetry, theater, and film as well as primary and secondary historical
sources. Class
size: 18
