The excellent bulbul, a gentleman and a scholar, sent me an e-mail saying:
I thought this might interest you and your readership - the first issue of the Journal of Jewish Languages is out. As was to be expected, there's some great stuff in it, including a report on the last speakers of Judeo-Malayalam. And if that isn't reason enough to check it out, here's one more: the entire first issue is free. I never thought I'd see the day - a publication by Brill, free. But there it is.I echo his amazement on all counts, and welcome this new publication. The first issue includes "A Maghrebian Sharḥ to the Hafṭara for the Minḥa Service on the Day of Atonement" by Moshe Bar-Asher, "Voices Yet to Be Heard: On Listening to the Last Speakers of Jewish Malayalam" by Ophira Gamliel, reviews of Tatjana Soldat-Jaffe's Twenty-First Century Yiddishism (by Peltz Rakhmiel) and Kirsten Fudeman's Vernacular Voices: Language and Identity in Medieval French Communities (by George Jochnowitz), "A New Venue for Research on Jewish Languages" by Sarah Bunin Benor and Ofra Tirosh-Becker, "Reapplying the Language Tree Model to the History of Yiddish" by Alexander Beider, and "Writing More and Less ‘Jewishly’ in Judezmo and Yiddish" by David M. Bunis. Enjoy!
