This volume is devoted to selected aspects of the culture and
language of the two largest Jewish Diaspora groups, Sephardim and
Ashkenazim. The authors analyze the latest European research
tendencies related to both Jewish factions. Questions concern the
historical, social and cultural contact with non-Jewish
environment, the problems of Jewish identity, the condition of
languages in both groups (Yiddish, Judeo-Spanish, Hakitia), and
Jewish anthroponymy. The reflections concern various areas of
contemporary Germany, Poland, Russia, the Balkan countries, Italy,
the countries of North Africa inhabited by both Sephardi and
Ashkenazi Jews. For the analyses, not only documents, manuscripts,
press articles, and literary texts serve as a basis but also the
artifacts of material culture.
