This book analyses issues of language and Jewish identity among the
Sephardim in Sarajevo. The author examines how Sephardim belonging
to three different generations in Sarajevo deal with the challenge
of cultivating hybrid and hyphenated identities under destabilizing
conditions, exploring how a group of interviewees define and
describe the language they speak since Yugoslavia's collapse. Their
self-identification through language is then placed within the
context of other cases of linguistic and ethnic identity formation
in European minority groups. This book will be of interest to
students and scholars working in several related fields and
disciplines, including Slavic studies, Historical Anthropology,
Jewish History and Holocaust studies, Sociolinguistics, and Memory
studies.
