Jews Without Yellow Stars
They were soldiers by circumstance, not by choice. Heroes by necessity, with nothing left to lose, Jewish resistance fighters fought back against the Nazis from strongholds deep in the primevals forests of World War II Belorussia. Among the most ferocious fighters were Jewish female partisans who had lost their children at the hands of the Germans.Hersh Smolar - a Polish Jew, prolific writer, and ardent activist - was front and center in the Jewish resistance. His short vignettes of partisan life in the Nali-boki forest chronicle the quiet, relentless pursuit of the enemy and the ongoing efforts to liberate Jews from the Minsk ghetto.Ruth Murphy's translation of Smolar's Yiddish work gives us an intimate view of ordinary people forced into extraordinary circumstances; people who embarked on unimaginable missions to avenge the brutal murders of their friends, family, and way of life. These are battle reports delivered at a personal level, fraught with anger, heartache, and determination."A careful translation from the original Yiddish of Hersh Smolar's Yidn on gele lates, a collection of stories about Jewish resistance to the German invaders in what was then Belorussia (now Belarus) during World War II. Smolar, a Polish Jew and writer, trapped in German-occupied Minsk during the war, became a leader of the Minsk Jewish resistance. Smolar's vignettes, written soon after the war was over, vividly describe the suffering of Jews in Belorussian ghettos, the dangers that they encountered living in partisan units in the forest, and their passionate hatred of the German Army for its slaughter of their families and their people. Belorussia, unlike European countries to its west, was covered with dense primeval forests, which became the main terrain of the battles between partisans and German soldiers. Unlike in Poland and other West European countries, Jewish and Soviet partisans frequently joined together in fighting the Germans. As elsewhere in Europe, Jewish female partisans, whose children in many cases had been murdered by the Germans, fought the Germans with particular ferocity. Smolar's own participation in these events, and his skill as a writer, give his account of the Jewish resistance in and near Minsk a rare immediacy."-Barbara Epstein, author of The Minsk Ghetto 1941-1943: Jewish Resistance and Soviet Internationalism

Reassessing Alleged Runic Forgeries
One of the most well-known potential forgeries is SG-65 Kleines Schulerloch, which has provoked controversies and debates among scientists of various disciplines since its discovery.

New Perspectives on Languages in Contact
This publication examines the complex phenomenon of language contact in its various facets, both for its subject matter and for the variety of interrelationships that come into play, especially as a consequence of its close links with English. The data are mainly drawn from Peninsular Spanish, but also from overseas areas such as the Canary Islands and the United States. Contact with geographically and culturally neighboring languages such as French and Italian is another focus. Given the interdisciplinarity of this field of study, the book will also be of interest to researchers in other areas of linguistics, such as lexicology and lexicography, sociolinguistics, language planning and the history of Spanish and English.
Storytelling as a Cultural Practice
Storytelling as a cultural practice permeates all phases and areas of human life and opens up possible worlds. From their earliest days, children grow into a culture of storytelling, acquire language and literature, develop writing skills, and learn to communicate through storytelling in multimodal ways: orally and in writing, by playing, drawing, designing, singing, dancing and more. Through the process of narrating, experiences are structured, identities are formed, social contexts are shaped, and desires and futures are imagined. Narrative connects different times in history, various disciplinary fields in education and diverse linguistic-cultural spaces, but it also requires time and space itself. Against the background of an educational landscape that is currently competence-oriented, the question arises as to what role the art of storytelling plays in educational contexts, and what possibilities it opens up for learning. This edited volume aims to address this question, theoretically and empirically, from pedagogical and linguistic perspectives.
Language Use and Language Attitudes in Ju獺rez, Mexico
Four decades after her dissertation defense at the University of New Mexico, the author of Language Use and Language Attitudes in Juarez, Mexico (1983) presents a book that guides the interested audience through a conceptual and historical framework for understanding the role that language plays in shaping community values. Divided into two parts, this Reader presents the trajectory of a community, Villa Paso del Norte, that was split into two sides: "this side" and the "other side". The village was elevated to the rank of city, and the two sides became gradually differentiated after the Mexico-U.S. War (1846-1848). Part I reconstructs episodes on the foundation, evolution, and socio-demographic transformations of the not-so-new border region. It features the works of Jos矇 Vasconcelos and Mariano Azuela and their legacy on the Mexican side of the border. Part I addresses, too, the formulation of research questions and the design of the validation process. It includes additional bibliographic material and the original survey form in Spanish as presented to the subjects in 1980-1981. Part I addresses, too, the formulation of research questions and the design of the validation process. Part I is liberally spiced with autobiographical anecdotes, notes on cinematography, pop music and local folklore. It is prepared for the general audience. Illustrating quantitative data, Part II contains the six chapters of the original dissertation. It includes the correlation matrix with the summary of results (Appendix I) and the English version of the survey form (Appendix II). The references on the subject matter show that this work is heavily influenced by the tenets of the sociology of language and the social psychology of language. This work is enriched with data on both sociolinguistics and dialectology. It is ideal for graduate students enrolled in courses of sociolinguistics, the sociology of language, border studies and related disciplines.

So Many Warm Words
Step into the vivid, unsettled, and sometimes lonely life of the poet Rosa Nevadoska.

Here, in So Many Warm Words, in English translation as well as the original Yiddish, you can see the world through her eyes, in poignant, at times heartbreaking, images. Walk with her through indelible scenes of quiet despair. Share her wonder at the mysteries of night and silence.Nevadoska writes, "No thing is silent./ Everything possesses a voice." The immediacy of these poems will transport you as she shares the voices of city, mountain and sea; of joy, sorrow and yearning.

So each unit has been carefully planned to recycle the same words, chunks and sentences many times over to help students remember as much as possible when they do the exam. In addition, many high-frequency vocabulary and grammatical structures are encountered across all the units.The content has been written to take account of the DfE's requirement that GCSE students become familiar with aspects of the contexts and cultures in which French is spoken. The comprehension texts were written by the authors, often drawing on authentic sources.Thematic, vocabulary and grammar content has been matched against the new specifications and should be suitable for any of the three awarding bodies: AQA, Eduqas and Pearson-Edexcel
The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew Volume 6
Scholars are gradually realizing that they cannot now do without this innovative dictionary, a benchmark for the study of Hebrew in the twenty-first century.It is the first dictionary of the classical Hebrew language to cover not only the biblical texts but also Ben Sira, the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Hebrew inscriptions. It is the first dictionary to analyse the exact sense of every occurrence of every word, to follow every Hebrew word or phrase with an English equivalent, to print a frequency table of occurrences of each word, and to provide an English-Hebrew index.Not least among its features is an extraordinarily rich bibliography surveying special lexicographical studies over the last century, and adding more than 50% attested and proposed words to the stock of the Hebrew lexicon.
The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew Volume 5
The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew is a completely new and innovative dictionary.Unlike previous dictionaries, which have been dictionaries of biblical Hebrew, this is the first dictionary of the classical Hebrew language to include the Bible, Dead Sea Scrolls, and all the other known Hebrew inscriptions and manuscripts.This Dictionary covers the period from the earliest times to 200 CE. It lists and analyses every occurrences of each Hebrew word that occurs in texts of that period, with an English translation of every Hebrew word and phrase cited.Among its special features are: a list of the non-biblical texts cited (especially the Dead Sea Scrolls), a word frequency index for each letter of the alphabet, a substantial bibliography (from Volume 2 onward) and an English-Hebrew index in each volume.
The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew, Volume 9
Volume IX offers a valuable enhancement of the 8-volume Dictionary of Classical Hebrew (1993-2011). In DCH I-VIII, each volume had its own English-Hebrew Index, but this volume presents a much improved gathering together of all those indexes. The Index here contains every word used as a translation (gloss) in the Dictionary, that is, all the words printed in bold. In addition-a feature not seen before in Hebrew dictionaries-beneath each listed word are noted all the Hebrew words it translates, together with the volume and page reference of the relevant article. The Index thus shows at a glance all the Hebrew words that are translated with the same English word, e.g. Arrogance 10 Hebrew words, Arrow 7, Assembly 10, Band 9, Basket 9, Bend 10, Branch 23, Break 21. So it becomes an index of synonyms, hard to parallel elsewhere in the scholarly literature. Indexes have not been a common feature of twentieth-century Hebrew dictionaries, though they were quite frequent in older lexica, and it is time they were restored as a customary element in a lexicon. Browsing the Index will prove not only interesting but also useful. The second element in this volume is the Word Frequency Table. This is a combination of the Word Frequency Tables in the various volumes of DCH. There, the lists of word frequencies were arranged under each letter of the alphabet. In the present publication, all the words in the Dictionary are combined in a single list arranged in order of frequency of occurrence. Unlike all previous lists of occurrences of Hebrew words, the present list includes the occurrences not only in the Hebrew Bible but also in the whole scope of The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew, which is to say, Sirach (Ecclesiasticus), the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Hebrew Inscriptions as well as the Hebrew Bible itself. For each word there is listed the number of occurrences in each of those four corpora, and the ranking position of a given word is determined by the total number of occurrences in all the classical Hebrew texts combined.
The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew Volume 2
The Dictionary of Classical Hebrew is a completely new and innovative dictionary.Unlike previous dictionaries, which have been dictionaries of biblical Hebrew, this is the first dictionary of the classical Hebrew language to include the Bible, Dead Sea Scrolls, and all the other known Hebrew inscriptions and manuscripts.This Dictionary covers the period from the earliest times to 200 CE. It lists and analyses every occurrences of each Hebrew word that occurs in texts of that period, with an English translation of every Hebrew word and phrase cited.Among its special features are: a list of the non-biblical texts cited (especially the Dead Sea Scrolls), a word frequency index for each letter of the alphabet, a substantial bibliography (from Volume 2 onward) and an English-Hebrew index in each volume.

Explorations Into Language, Literature and Culture
Over the past 25 years, previously separate fields of linguistic research have moved closer together, resulting in constructive collaborations: Cognitive Sociolinguistics draws on the framework of Cognitive Linguistics to investigate social factors in linguistic variation. Linguistic Landscape studies merge Semiotics and Sociolinguistics. Critical Discourse Studies link ideological dimensions of language to general conceptual principles. Language pedagogy is constantly informed by developments in Applied Linguistics. Furthermore, there is lively communication with neighbouring disciplines such as Literary and Cultural Studies. The present volume reflects this fruitful fluidity. It is a tribute to the linguist Martin P羹tz, whose work has always been guided by this interdisciplinary spirit.

Expand Your Spanish Vocabulary!
This book is an extremely extensive Spanish vocabulary guide that also doubles as a Spanish-English dictionary. It has many sections, among which the two most notable ones are the unusually large sections focusing on colloquial (slang and generally informal) language and on cognate patterns. Learning these cognate patterns will help you expand your vocabulary enormously and very rapidly by learning to predict word meanings and the existence of words in Spanish. Other significant sections focus on expressions (with many complete sentences) related to travel, food, education, emergencies, and basic conversation. The largest part of the book is the A-to-Z Spanish-to-English section. There is an also an excellent por vs. para section (with a great summary, followed by the more complete portion).Basically, this is the book that the author wishes he could have purchased thirty five years ago, when he began to study the language seriously. Although there are innumerable Spanish language textbooks and grammar books, there are few intermediate and advanced vocabulary books, and those that do exist are far too limited in both scope and scale. Likewise, the existing "street" or slang dictionaries for learners of Spanish are also far too limited. This work seeks to fill those gaps. The author has worked on it for many years, and has written it with the experience of being both a teacher and a student (a student of a few languages). Given that dual perspective, this book would be a great resource for any and all purchasers, including (but not limited to) serious college-level learners, do-it-yourselfers who look for language-learning guides at the local bookstore or library, travelers who want to be able to truly engage with the locals in the Spanish-speaking world, medical professionals, first responders, anyone who works with Spanish-speaking customers, and more.
Arabic Documents from Medieval Nubia
This volume presents an edition of a corpus of Arabic documents datable to the 11th and 12th centuries AD that were discovered by the Egypt Exploration Society at the site of the Nubian fortress Qaṣr Ibrīm (situated in the south of modern Egypt). The edition of the documents is accompanied by English translations and a detailed analysis of their contents and historical background.The documents throw new light on relations between Egypt and Nubia in the High Middle Ages, especially in the Fatimid period. They are of particular importance since previous historical studies from the perspective of Arabic sources have been al-most entirely based on historiographical sources, often written a long time after the events described and distorted by tendentious points of view.
