Yitzak Kerem's Sefarad newsletter drew this new publication to my attention
-
and I especially noted the second item - on transliteration and cataloguing
-
that I thought might be of interest to some of you.
(There are other papers discussing Ladino and Judezmo under the Ottomans as
well)

Misgav Yerushalayim and The Bialik Institute, Jerusalem,
are pleased to announce the publication of a new book:
LANGUAGES AND LITERATURES OF SEPHARDIC AND ORIENTAL JEWS
Edited by David M. Bunis
Center for the Study of Jewish Languages and Literatures
The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
The Sixth International Congress for Research on the Sephardic and Oriental
Jewish Heritage, convened under the aegis of Misgav
Yerushalayim at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, was dedicated to the
Languages and Literatures of Sephardic and Oriental Jews.
It brought together seasoned scholars and bright young talents from
Israel, Europe, and the Americas, for five days of intensive interaction.
The present volume is an outgrowth of the research reported on at the
Congress.
Many of the original lectures have been expanded—some of them, considerably
so— enabling the topics to receive the full attention they
merit, unrestricted by the time limitations of a conference lecture. (ISBN
978-965-342-985-7)
