Text and the City: a Virtual Tour of the Israeli Linguistic Landscape

Hosted By: Qesher

The languages of Israel can tell us a lot about its social fabric, history and culture.

In this talk, Guy will take us through the streets of Israeli cities, deciphering textual graffiti, lost pet ads, texts on t-shirts, shop signs and more. We’ll learn about the cultural layers of an ever changing society and about the latest trends in Modern Hebrew.

With your participation you are also contributing to the sustainability of the “Hebrew Center” of the Israeli Cultural Institute in Budapest.

Host

Qesher

There are Jewish communities all around the globe with their own unique history, culture, places, and most of all, people and stories. All of them different, but sharing so much. The aim of Qesher is to connect these different Jewish traditions, not just to know of each other, but to learn about each other. We believe that there is great value in creating a deeper understanding within the Jewish world and exploring Jewish experiences and identities in all their diversity.
