In introducing 11 papers from the Fourth and Fifth Mendel Friedman Conference in Yiddish held at the U. of Oxford, Sherman (Yiddish studies, U. of Oxford) and Robertson (German, St. Joseph's College, Oxford) note that Yiddish has long been treated by many as a jargon of the uneducated. International contributors examine the mutual influences of European literature and the 1,000-year-old language on each other. E.g., Sherman discusses Chekhov's influence on Russian-Jewish author Dovid Bergelson (1884-1952) in such works as Opgang (Descent, 1920).
