"In my paper, I trace the development of Yiddish in Israel, and discuss the present-day revival of Yiddish culture.  I approach the analysis from several angles, including the history of Yiddish literature and theater.  I draw inspiration from my great-grandfather, who acted in the Folksbiene National Yiddish Theatre for 80 years." -Noah Linfield, 2013
