Abstract:
Biographical note: Kirsten Fudeman teaches medieval French language and literature at the University of Pittsburgh.
Abstract:
Applying analytical strategies from linguistics, literature, and history, Kirsten Fudeman demonstrates that language played a central role in the formation, expression, and maintenance of medieval Jewish identity and that it brought Christians and Jews together even as it set them apart.
