SUMMARY:Introducing the Corpus of Spoken Yiddish in Europe: Holocaust testimonies in language research and pedagogy
DESCRIPTION:\nThe speaker will be remote, but we will have an in-person gathering with refreshments.The Corpus of Spoken Yiddish in Europe (CSYE; yiddishcorpus.org) is a digital language archive sourced from hundreds of video-recorded interviews with Holocaust survivors from the USC Shoah Foundation. The materials contained in the corpus are a testament to the social and linguistic diversity of Yiddish-speaking Jewish society and an invaluable resource for linguistic research, Yiddish language instruction, and Holocaust education and commemoration. In this talk, I preview the resources in the CSYE, describe the process of corpus development, and discuss applications in language research, pedagogy, and revitalization.Isaac L. Bleaman is Associate Professor for Linguistics and Jewish Studies at University of California, Berkeley\n
