Yiddish: The Foundation of Modern Culture

This interactive lecture offers a comprehensive historical overview of the development of the Yiddish language as a social and literary expression that served as the basis for much of modern mainstream culture. Designed to explore the relationship of Yiddish culture to the literary, social, and intellectual world in which it thrived, this program offers an in-depth examination of how the Yiddish language adapted from a spoken, to a literary, to a theatrical mode of expression and influenced the birth of the modern theatre, film, comedy and music industries in America.
