SUMMARY:YINR - Women’s Initiative for Jewish Studies to Bring Dr. Chaya N
 ove via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Women’s Initiative for Jewish Studies (WIJS) at Young Israel
  of New Rochelle is proud to present Dr. Chaya Nove on Tuesday\, November 
 18\, 2025 @ 8:15 pm (ET) on Zoom.  Nove will be the second speaker of the
  2025-2026 season in the monthly scholarly programming offered by WIJS at 
 YINR.\n\nDr. Nove’s lecture is entitled\, “Between Tradition and Trend
 : Popular Culture and language use among American Hasidim.”  The past t
 hree decades have seen enormous activity in the realm of Hasidic pop cultu
 re. Fueled by creative energy and aided by new technologies that have made
  production cheaper and more efficient\, New York Hasidim have produced a 
 robust canon of artifacts and expressions for popular consumption includin
 g theatrical performances\, lyrical music\, literature\, comedy\, commerci
 al marketing\, games\, and more—all with Hasidic Yiddish as the medium. 
 In these genres\, the tension between traditionalism and modernity is appa
 rent\, as mainstream American trends are rendered\, refracted\, and refitt
 ed onto traditional content to form a distinctive Hasidic style.\n\nDr. Ch
 aya Nove is a sociolinguist focusing on variation and change in Hasidic Yi
 ddish and its ancestral dialects. She is currently a Visiting Research Sch
 olar at Fordham University\, where she is developing a social history of N
 ew York Hasidic Yiddish. Chaya holds a Ph.D. in Linguistics from the Gradu
 ate Center at the City University of New York (CUNY). Her research has bee
 n supported by the Association for Jewish Studies\, Memorial Foundation fo
 r Jewish Culture\, and American Academy for Jewish Research.\n\nAll WIJS p
 rogramming is open to women and men.  Please visit www.yinr.org/wijs to
